Singapore-based AI education company Genius Group (NYSE American: GNS) has officially launched its AI Treasury strategy, marking a major shift in how it manages corporate reserves. In its latest announcement, the company said it deployed $657,100 on June 1 into SEC-registered closed-end funds that provide indirect pre-IPO exposure to some of the most closely watched technology companies in the market. The move signals a new phase for a firm that was previously known for its strong Bitcoin-first treasury stance.
First allocation targets leading private AI and tech names
As part of the initial deployment, Genius Group purchased 10,000 shares of Destiny Tech100 (DXYZ) and 800 shares of Fundrise Innovation Fund (VCX). Based on the latest portfolio weightings of those funds, the company estimates that the investment gives it roughly 16% exposure to Anthropic, equal to about $107,000, 11% exposure to SpaceX, worth around $80,000, and 7.4% exposure to OpenAI, or about $45,000.
The company said this first allocation forms part of its “AGI Infinity Portfolio,” which serves as the foundation of the broader AI Treasury plan. CEO Roger James Hamilton said the next five years could be a defining period for exponential growth in frontier technologies, with markets potentially heading into one of the largest IPO waves in history. Against that backdrop, Genius Group plans to build the treasury through a dollar-cost averaging approach, targeting $100 million in the first stage and aiming for as much as $800 million by 2030.
From Bitcoin-first to a dual treasury model
Before pivoting toward AI-focused investments, Genius Group had built a reputation in crypto markets through its Bitcoin-heavy strategy. Starting in late 2024, the company said it had adopted a Bitcoin-first approach and allocated more than 90% of its reserve assets into BTC. Its holdings reportedly peaked at 440 BTC in 2025. However, under pressure from $8.5 million in debt obligations, the company liquidated its entire Bitcoin position in April 2026, leaving its BTC balance at zero.
Even so, Genius Group has not abandoned crypto altogether. The company said it will now pursue a dual treasury strategy combining Bitcoin and AI-related assets. According to the announcement, this structure is intended in part to stay within SEC thresholds that could otherwise cause the company to be treated primarily as an investment vehicle. Management added that it may rebuild a Bitcoin position in the future if market conditions improve and the balance sheet becomes stronger, using BTC to complement its expanding AI exposure.
The strategy highlights a growing trend among public companies experimenting with treasury frameworks that blend emerging technology themes with digital assets. Genius Group has rescheduled its investor call to 9:00 a.m. ET on June 4, 2026, when it plans to release a more detailed AI Treasury white paper and provide further guidance on its long-term outlook. Investors are likely to focus on whether the company can balance debt constraints with its ambitious new allocation strategy.
