Genius Group has announced a $1.2 billion capital plan to build its AI and Bitcoin treasuries, with a combined target of about $1.63 billion in holdings. The AI-powered education company plans to use perpetual preferred securities to fund the two treasuries without directly diluting ordinary shareholders, while targeting $2 billion in total assets by 2031.
Genius Group announced the plan on August 27, 2026, aiming to build an $800 million AI Treasury and an $827 million Bitcoin Treasury. Together, the two treasuries could reach about $1.63 billion.
The plan follows the company’s earlier move into AI investments. On May 27, Genius Group approved its AI Treasury, called the AGI Infinity Portfolio, with an initial target of up to $100 million.
The company then made its first AI investments on June 1, gaining exposure to SpaceX, Anthropic and OpenAI, along with 10,000 shares of Destiny Tech100 and 800 shares of Fundrise Innovation Fund.
Since then, Genius Group says Anthropic, Anduril and Databricks have seen their valuations rise by 100% to 154% based on recent funding rounds.
Bitcoin is the second key part of Genius Group’s plan. The company first started its Bitcoin Treasury in November 2024, but later sold its Bitcoin holdings and planned to return to the market when conditions improved.
Genius Group now plans to build its Bitcoin Treasury toward $827 million.
The company is targeting Bitcoin as one part of its long-term treasury strategy, while its AI Treasury is focused on investments in AI companies and infrastructure.
To fund both plans, Genius Group plans to use its existing $1.2 billion SEC shelf registration to issue perpetual preferred securities.
Genius Group plans to use perpetual preferred securities to raise capital for its AI and Bitcoin treasuries without directly diluting ordinary shareholders. The company is targeting an initial $12.5 million offering and has started discussions with investment banks experienced in preferred securities and digital asset treasury financing.
CEO Roger James Hamilton said,
“Perpetual preferred capital is the ideal instrument to accelerate the growth of our NAVPS and build our dual treasuries without diluting our shareholders.”
Genius Group currently has $106.6 million in net assets and a $0.62 net asset value per share. The company aims to reach $2 billion in total assets by FY2031 and projects NAVPS of $2 to $4 over the next five years.
Shareholders have also approved the issue of preferred shares and a buyback of up to 20% of ordinary shares.
The final offering size, dividend rate, issue price and timing are still being decided and will depend on board approval, regulatory requirements and market conditions.
