MicroAlgo (NASDAQ: MLGO) revealed that its board has approved the establishment of a $15 million digital asset fund. The fund has initiated a daily investment program (TWAP) to mitigate the risk of price volatility from single-point purchases.
Roblox (NYSE: RBLX) disclosed in a developer communication that it has converted 2% of its surplus cash on its balance sheet into ETH and AVAX. This move is intended to support the liquidity for its next-generation creator economy's on-chain settlements, rather than being purely a financial investment.
