C2 Blockchain Inc., a blockchain infrastructure and digital asset treasury company, announced that its corporate holdings of DOG (Bitcoin) have increased to 803,189,960 DOG, representing over 0.8% of the asset's total 100 billion token supply. The updated holdings reflect the acquisition of 78,308,110 additional DOG (Bitcoin) tokens since the company's previous treasury update, a 10.8% growth in its DOG holdings. DOG (Bitcoin) is a digital asset issued through the Bitcoin Runes protocol, which launched alongside the April 2024 Bitcoin halving.

Why it matters

The growth in C2 Blockchain's DOG (Bitcoin) holdings highlights the expanding Bitcoin-native digital asset ecosystem, as the Runes protocol enables the creation and transfer of fungible assets directly on Bitcoin's base layer. This diversifies the use cases for the Bitcoin network beyond just a monetary system.

The details

C2 Blockchain's DOG holdings are custodied with Kraken, and the balances are independently verifiable through public blockchain data. The company provides treasury transparency through its public dashboard at C2DOG.com. The April 2024 Bitcoin halving reduced the block subsidy awarded to miners, while the introduction of the Runes protocol created a new framework for issuing fungible digital assets on Bitcoin's base layer. Since its launch, Runes-based assets have contributed to increased transaction activity on the Bitcoin network.

  • C2 Blockchain's previous DOG (Bitcoin) holdings were 724,881,850 DOG.
  • The company has acquired an additional 78,308,110 DOG (Bitcoin) tokens since the previous update.
  • The Bitcoin Runes protocol launched alongside the April 2024 Bitcoin halving.
