Alexandre Laizet, an executive at Capital B, said in a video interview with Bitcoin Magazine that France’s debt has reached 120% of GDP, but argued the deeper issue is not the debt itself. He said borrowed money is being used for consumption rather than investment, a pattern he linked to the broader case for holding Bitcoin in Europe.
Laizet said Europe’s debt crisis and currency debasement together form the rationale for a Bitcoin reserve strategy. He also said France’s capital market structure is well suited to that approach, which is why Capital B chose to establish itself there.
In the same interview, Laizet said Capital B aims to become the largest company in Europe by capital scale and plans to keep adding to its Bitcoin holdings during bear markets. The discussion also covered new MSCI rules for Bitcoin treasury companies, Europe’s perpetual credit and regulatory environment, and growing interest from credit investors in Bitcoin-backed lending.
