Genius Group an AI-driven education and business acceleration company serving individuals, enterprises and governments, has fully liquidated its Bitcoin reserves to repay an $8.5 million debt. The company confirmed that it aims to rebuild its Bitcoin treasury once market conditions improve.
The company initially embraced a Bitcoin-focused strategy in late 2024, shortly after the U.S. presidential election outcome. As part of this move, Genius Group committed to allocating up to 90% of its reserves into Bitcoin, positioning itself among corporate adopters of digital assets.
By early 2025, the firm had accumulated approximately 440 BTC. However, regulatory challenges soon disrupted its plans. A U.S. court order restricted the company from raising capital or issuing new shares, forcing it to begin selling portions of its holdings.
In recent months, Genius Group gradually reduced its Bitcoin exposure. It sold around 86 BTC earlier and held about 84 BTC before ultimately liquidating the remaining balance, according to its latest announcement.
This move reflects a broader shift in corporate sentiment toward digital assets and Bitcoin Holdings Several companies have recently reduced their Bitcoin Holdings amid changing market dynamics.
For instance Nakamoto led by Bitcoin advocate David Bailey reportedly sold 20 million dollars worth of Bitcoin. Similarly MARA Holdings liquidated over 15000 BTC valued at approximately 1 point 1 billion dollars to support financial restructuring efforts.
Despite these developments, Genius Group has shown strong operational performance. In Q1 2026, the company reported revenue of $3.3 million, representing a 171% year-over-year increase. Gross profit rose significantly by 228% to $2.0 million.
The company also achieved a notable turnaround in profitability, posting a net operational profit of $2.7 million compared to a loss in the previous year. This growth was driven by its focus on high-margin educational programs and experiential learning models.
Adjusted EBITDA reached $600,000, highlighting improved financial stability. Key initiatives included the launch of Genius School, expansion of Genius City in Bali, introduction of AI-powered learning pods, and continued investment by the company’s CEO.
Overall, while Genius Group has stepped back from its Bitcoin strategy for now, its strong financial recovery and future plans suggest it may re-enter the market when conditions become more favorable.
