Herford, 26 June 2026 – Bitcoin Group SE (ISIN DE000A1TNV91) published its 2025 Annual Report today. The past year in the crypto market was marked by a period of readjustment amid structural change and ongoing volatility. While the macroeconomic environment remained challenging, increasing institutional adoption, regulatory progress such as the European MiCAR regulation, and the growing importance of government crypto reserves marked milestones in the sector’s ongoing maturation. Against this dynamic backdrop, Bitcoin Group SE consistently leveraged the year 2025 to advance its technological and strategic transformation.
Solid financial and balance sheet structure despite investment phase
In financial year 2025, Bitcoin Group SE generated revenue of EUR 10.0 million, up from EUR 9.3 million in the previous year. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to EUR 0.5 million (previous year: EUR 1.8 million) due to planned high investments in the new trading platform and a targeted expansion of the workforce. On a net basis, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment, and rights of use resulted in a net loss of EUR 1.3 million, following a net profit of EUR 1.8 million in the previous year.
The company’s net crypto holdings reflected the weaker performance of Bitcoin as well as the weaker U.S. dollar against the euro, totalling EUR 293 million as of 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: just under EUR 366 million). This reaffirms the company’s position as one of the world’s largest holders of crypto assets. With an equity ratio that remains excellent at 71.8 % (31 December 2024: 72.3 %) and an increase in cash and cash equivalents to EUR 12.6 million (31 December 2024: EUR 12.2 million), the Group’s financial position remains solid.
Against this backdrop, the Management Board will propose a dividend of EUR 0.10 per share to the Annual General Meeting in August 2026 – as in previous years – in order to maintain the Group’s track record of consistent dividend payments. At the same time, Bitcoin Group has the financial flexibility to drive the Group’s further development.
Quantum leap for Bitcoin.de and expansion into the institutional sector
The focus of the financial year was on the complete technological overhaul of the Bitcoin.de trading platform. The previous peer-to-peer marketplace was transformed into a state-of-the-art, scalable trading architecture. The official relaunch is imminent: Starting in late June 2026, customers will have access to a high-performance trading app for iOS and Android, as well as a completely redesigned website.
The modernized platform offers a significantly expanded product range of over 100 selected cryptocurrencies, innovative features such as savings plans, dynamic staking, and crypto swaps, as well as transactions processed in seconds via a free reference account. Trading will be possible starting with an investment of just one euro, with a competitive fee structure – while maintaining the highest “Made in Germany” security standards.
In addition, a few months after the platform relaunch, the Bitcoin Group SE will introduce a dedicated offering for institutional investors and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) under the “futurum” brand. To ensure it can offer these services in a legally compliant manner throughout the EU in the future, its wholly owned subsidiary, futurum bank AG, is currently undergoing the MiCAR licensing process.
Moritz Eckert, CEO of Bitcoin Group SE, comments: “With the comprehensive realignment of Bitcoin.de, we are opening a new chapter in our company’s history. We have evolved the platform from its original peer-to-peer model into a highly scalable, modern trading platform. This largely completed structural realignment provides the ideal foundation for sustainably consolidating and expanding our market position in an increasingly professionalized crypto financial market.”
The German 2025 Annual Report is available for download as a PDF document in the Publications section of bitcoingroup.com. The English Report will be available by the beginning of July 2026.
