KULR Technology Group Inc (AMEX:KULR) shares are trading higher Thursday after the company announced a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) purchase under its newly-adopted Bitcoin Treasury strategy.

What To Know: At the beginning of December, KULR announced plans to include Bitcoin as a primary asset in its treasury program. The company said that it planned to allocate up to 90% of its surplus cash to Bitcoin.

“Given the unique characteristics of BTC, it provides long term appreciation and a bulwark against geopolitical, inflationary, and other macro-economic and political trends affecting all developed economies,” said Michael Mo, chairman and CEO of KULR Technology.

On Thursday, KULR announced that it purchased 217.18 Bitcoin for approximately $21 million. The purchases were made at an average price of $96,556.53 per Bitcoin.

KULR selected Coinbase Prime for wallet services for its Bitcoin. The company noted that this is the first purchase in a string of expected ongoing purchases the company expects to make going forward under its Bitcoin Treasury strategy.
