Combined with the previous $50 million purchase of ZEC, Cypherpunk's total ZEC holdings have reached 233,644.56 ZEC, with an average holding cost of $291.04. This acquisition brings the company's total ownership proportion in the Zcash network to 1.43%.

Previously, the company appointed Will McEvoy, head of Winklevoss Capital, as Chief Investment Officer (CIO) and board member. Winklevoss Capital had led a $58.88 million private placement for the company. The company's goal is to eventually hold at least 5% of ZEC's total supply, continuing to advance its Zcash-centered digital asset treasury strategy.
