When the CEO's salary slip becomes a hash value on the blockchain, the historic turning point for traditional enterprises to tie themselves to the encryption chariot has arrived!
Core event breakdown
Japan's first crab
Remixpoint (TSE code 3825) officially announced: CEO’s future salary will be paid 100% in Bitcoin, becoming the first listed company in Japan to fully bind executive compensation to Bitcoin.
→ The underlying logic: Turn the CEO into a “human Bitcoin holding pool” and use the price fluctuations of the currency to force him to be deeply tied to the interests of shareholders.
Confidence comes from heavy positions
The company's current currency holdings:
BTC holdings: 16 billion yen (about $115 million)
ETH/SOL/XRP/DOGE, etc.: 17.1 billion yen (about 123 million U.S. dollars)
In May, the company added $7 million in BTC to buy at the bottom, bringing its total crypto assets to $84 million, accounting for more than 10% of the company's total assets3.
Violent opinions + bloody cases
This is not a show, but the ultimate experiment of "encrypted survival" for traditional enterprises**
Case reference: Metaplanet, another listed company in Japan, has already regarded Bitcoin as its core asset reserve, and plans to hold 21,000 BTC (current value ≈ US$5 billion) by 2026. It even proposed the "Bitcoin appreciation rate per share" as a shareholder value indicator.
Deeper motivation: The yen continues to depreciate + Japan's national debt accounts for 260% of GDP, and companies are collectively using Bitcoin to hedge sovereign credit risks. Remixpoint's electricity bill business has supported Bitcoin payment discounts since 2017, and this time it is pushing the experiment from the business end to the governance end.
Beware of the double-edged sword effect of “Bitcoinization of wages”**
Positive case: Brian Armstrong, the founder of Coinbase, insisted on using Bitcoin to settle wages in 2013. At that time, the price of the currency was $300. Now this batch of coins has appreciated by more than 100 times.
Crash warning: Bitmain's Jihan Wu once caused a struggle for control due to his excessive Bitcoin holdings, and was eventually forced to leave the company he founded - when personal wealth is strongly correlated with the price of the currency, decisions may become extreme.
A nuclear-level signal to the cryptocurrency world
Enterprise-level FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) is spreading
Metaplanet’s share price rose 217% year-on-year due to its BTC holdings, and Remixpoint’s share price jumped 5.26% in a single day after it announced its salary reform3. The “cryptocurrency holdings” column in the financial reports of listed companies is becoming a new valuation engine.
Bitcoin ETF's "alternative solution"
Japan has not yet approved a Bitcoin ETF, so companies’ direct purchase of coins and tokenization of salaries have become a roundabout way to bypass regulation, which may lead to more Asian companies following suit in the future.
The Ultimate Hook
Soul torture:
When CEO's salary becomes Bitcoin——
Is it a "interest binding artifact" or a "get rich quick anxiety accelerator"?
Deduction 111 supports "Enterprise encryption is an inevitable trend"
Kou666 questioned "It's more show than reality, sooner or later the salary will collapse"
The last truth: From electricity discounts in 2017 to computerized CEO salaries in 2025, Remixpoint has completed the epic experiment of “reconstructing corporate genes with Bitcoin” in 8 years - if traditional companies don’t revolutionize, they will be revolutionized by blockchain!
