As Bitcoin Soars, Chinese Company Makes $1.3 Billion BTC Move
2025/07/02 19:45Shenzhen-based clothing manufacturer Addentax Group Corp. (ATXG) has announced a new non-binding agreement to purchase a total of 12,000 Bitcoin, revising the 8,000 BTC purchase plan it announced in May.
This potential acquisition is worth approximately $1.3 billion at current prices.
The company said in a statement today that the acquisitions will be financed through the sale of ATXG shares, which are traded on Nasdaq. However, details of the plan remain unclear. Addentax said the final agreement is subject to signing, a comprehensive due diligence process being completed and necessary approvals being obtained.
Addentax said, “This specification sets the preliminary framework for the planned acquisition and is not a binding contract.” The company explained that critical details such as how many BTC will be purchased, how many shares will be issued, and share pricing have not yet been determined. Despite this, management continues to intend to allocate significant resources to its long-term Bitcoin investment strategy.
However, Addentax’s market value remains below $7 million as of today, according to Google Finance data. The company’s plans to make a crypto investment of this scale have raised questions among investors, with its shares trading below $1 for over a year. Experts point to the potential risk of share dilution and volatility.
The company’s past crypto ventures have also attracted attention. In May, it announced that it had held an acquisition talks worth around $800 million with “influential” crypto representatives, including memecoin investors named TRUMP, but stated that no binding agreement had been made at the time.
Addentax, a textile company, is one of the latest to join the ranks of companies planning to create cryptocurrency reserves. However, some observers argue that such statements can sometimes be used to boost company stocks. The 2017 Long Island Iced Tea company’s name change to Long Blockchain Corp. and the explosion of its stock price remains one of the most remembered examples of this.

The "Eye of the Storm" in the Global Economy: Debt Crisis in Developed Countries
The IMF warns that developed economies are becoming the "eye of the storm" for global debt risks. Countries such as the United States and France accumulated high levels of debt during periods of low interest rates, but now rising interest rates are pushing up repayment costs, and fiscal consolidation faces political resistance. BofA Securities points out that the United States is facing declining tax revenues, France has structural income decline issues, and the UK and Japan are also under pressure. The deteriorating debt sustainability of developed countries may impact global financial markets through shocks in interest rates and capital flows.
The US market narrative undergoes a "dramatic reversal": shifting from "AI-driven deflation and controllable US debt" to "AI squeezing the bond market, and Bassen unable to control long-term interest rates"
Deutsche Bank points out that the market narrative regarding the U.S. economy has shifted from "AI drives down inflation" to "AI-related bond issuance pushes up U.S. Treasury yields," but pessimism may be overdone. The bank believes that the real risks underestimated by the market are security incidents in the AI ecosystem, failed IPOs, or underwhelming revenues, which could undermine the dollar and support the bond market. In addition, France's fiscal difficulties are putting new pressure on the euro.
