Here’s a summary of the recent decision by Jiuzi Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: JZXN) to invest in cryptocurrency assets — what’s approved, what risks are, and what it could mean. If you want, I can also pull up the full SEC filings or broader market reaction.

What Jiuzi Holdings Has Approved


Jiuzi has adopted a Crypto Asset Investment Policy, formally approved by its Board of Directors. portal.sina.com.hk+2Blockonomi+2

Under this policy, the company may deploy up to USD 1 billion of its cash reserves into selected cryptocurrencies. AInvest+2Blockworks+2

The initial permitted cryptocurrencies are Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Binance Coin (BNB). Any investment beyond that set requires further evaluation and Board approval. Blockworks+2Blockonomi+2

The company will not self-custody these digital assets. Custody will be handled by external providers that meet “top-tier” security standards. Blockworks+2Blockonomi+2

A Crypto Asset Risk Committee, led by CFO Huijie Gao, has been established to oversee the execution of the policy, manage risks, and report to the Board. Blockworks+2AInvest+2

The initiative is being led by newly appointed COO Dr. Doug Buerger, who has experience in blockchain and AI. Blockworks+2AInvest+2


Earlier (back in May 2025), the company had announced a plan to acquire 1,000 Bitcoins over the next 12 months, via a hybrid funding strategy (cash + issuing additional shares). PR Newswire+2Investing.com+2

The $1B policy appears to build on or expand that earlier Bitcoin‐acquisition initiative, giving wider discretion (more types of crypto, higher ceiling) under a formal risk-controlled framework. AInvest+2Blockonomi+2

What the Strategy Is Aimed for


Not short-term speculation. The company describes this as a long-term store of value approach, to hedge against macroeconomic uncertainty. Blockworks+2Crypto News Australia+2

Risk control is emphasized: only select cryptos, external custody, oversight, and reporting. AInvest+2portal.sina.com.hk+2

Transparency via regulatory filings: the company says it will make disclosures via Form 6-K with the SEC following any material purchase activities. portal.sina.com.hk+1

Potential Risks / Things to Watch

Volatility: Cryptocurrencies are well known to be volatile; even major ones like BTC/ETH/BNB can move up/down sharply. Large allocations can expose the company to risk.

Regulatory risk: Depending on jurisdiction, crypto assets can be subject to regulation, policy shifts, taxation, custody rules, etc. For a China-based company with U.S. listing, cross‐border/regulation issues might be relevant.

Custody risk: Although the company is outsourcing custody, third-party custodians come with their own risks (security breaches, counterparty risk).

Valuation / liquidity risk: If assets need to be sold in stress scenarios, liquidity can deteriorate. Also, crypto valuations may diverge significantly.

Opportunity cost: $1B is a large allocation; money put in crypto is money not being used elsewhere (e.g. growth, capex, R&D, core business).

Market perception / investor reaction: While some investors may reward this for forward thinking and diversification, others may be wary of risk. Indeed, the stock moved up significantly on the announcement. Investing.com India+1

Implications & Significance


Jiuzi becomes one of a smaller set of non-financial / non-crypto native companies adopting crypto reserve strategies, especially with such a large potential allocation. Blockworks+1

Signals confidence in crypto as a hedge asset / alternative to traditional reserve assets (cash, bonds, etc.).

Could influence other companies, especially in China (or NASDAQ-listed Chinese firms), to consider similar risk diversification.

Might attract more investor attention (both positive and negative) due to increased exposure to crypto market behaviour.
