Gaming Firm Cashes in Chips for Digital Fairy Gold! 🃏💰

by

The directors of Boyaa Interactive, a concern of some repute on the Hong Kong bourse, have evidently concluded that the manufacture of digital card games is a dreadfully passé method of securing the weekly wage. In a stroke of what they no doubt consider genius, they have instead plunged a further thirty-three million of their shareholders’ dollars-scooped, one is assured, from the company’s own capacious sofa cushions-into the procurement of precisely two hundred and ninety units of that fashionable cryptographic chinoiserie, Bitcoin.

This latest speculatory spree, conducted in the dog days of August, elevates their total hoard to a rather more impressive-sounding 3,670 BTC, each unit acquired at the eminently reasonable average price of a small suburban villa. The corporate mind, it seems, operates on a different plane, seeing not volatility and hype, but a “key resource for the future of the internet.” One wonders if they have also invested in picks and shovels for the digital gold rush.

The maneuver was of such a scale that it required a special, and one imagines faintly embarrassed, communiqué to the Exchange authorities, the previous shareholder mandate for such folly having been surpassed with what can only be described as gusto. The company now boasts ownership of a frankly minuscule sliver of a Bitcoin for every ten thousand shares-a holding so exiguous that the announcement of it must surely be its own form of satire.

All this, we are told with a straight face, is not mere speculation but a profound and visionary “shift to Web3,” a realm where their games will presumably be sustained and grown by the magical properties of the cryptocurrency itself. They have even secured a rather middling global ranking on a website that tracks such corporate treasure chests, placing twenty-second in a race nobody knew was happening. A triumph, of sorts.
