Why My Company Holds Bitcoin — A Long-Term Business Perspective
I recently had the opportunity to share my journey and thoughts on Bitcoin in a Hungarian podcast called Bitcoin Kebab. While the conversation is in Hungarian, I wanted to take a moment to summarize the key ideas here in English — because the underlying principles are global, and many of you may not watch the full episode due to the language barrier.
Here’s the core of what I believe:
If our monetary system is broken, it doesn’t matter how hard we work — we’re playing a rigged game. But if we fix the money, we can fix a lot more.
That’s what led me to Bitcoin.
Like many, I first encountered Bitcoin in 2017, experimented with mining and trading, and watched the market rise and fall. But over time, I realized Bitcoin was not just another speculative asset. It was a fundamentally different form of money — decentralized, finite, and transparent. What truly clicked for me was this: With Bitcoin, I control my keys. My money. My future.
As an entrepreneur, this mindset shift naturally found its way into my companies. Starting in 2024, we began allocating 1% of annual revenue into Bitcoin, as a long-term corporate reserve strategy. Not as a speculative bet, but as a way to preserve purchasing power and maintain independence from a financial system I see becoming increasingly fragile.
Key reasons behind our Bitcoin strategy:
• Monetary debasement is real. Inflation, QE, and fiscal policies are eroding the value of fiat currencies at a systemic level.
• Bitcoin is the only provably scarce digital asset. Its 21 million cap is enforced by code, not by political will.
• It aligns with sovereignty. I believe that holding your own keys — whether personally or as a company — is the highest form of financial self-determination.
• It increases transparency. We even publicly shared our corporate wallet addresses so that anyone — including auditors — can verify our holdings on-chain.
To me, this is not risky — it’s responsible.
Yes, Bitcoin is volatile. But long-term, it’s a safer bet than leaving everything in a currency that’s designed to lose value.
And this is not just theory. I’ve gifted Bitcoin to colleagues and employees to help them start their own journey. I believe in growing this ecosystem organically, one person and one business at a time.
If you’re a founder or CFO looking for new ways to protect your company’s value — or just someone trying to understand Bitcoin through a practical lens — I invite you to listen (or read the summary if you don’t speak Hungarian).

Happy to continue the conversation in the comments or direct messages.
Let’s build for the next decade — not just the next quarter.
