This latest acquisition brings Real Bedford’s total Bitcoin holdings to 82.7 BTC, acquired at a cumulative cost of around $5.37 million. The average purchase price now of the club’s stash is about $64,925 per coin.
Of the total Bitcoin holdings, McCormack posted that 15.8 BTC is designated for operational purposes related to football activities. 
The remaining balance is held securely in the club’s treasury, highlighting Real Bedford’s strategy of utilizing Bitcoin not only as a financial asset but also as an integral part of its daily operations.
Real Bedford FC is a non-league football club based in the town of Bedford in the United Kingdom. McCormack acquired the team in 2021, and he then set the ambitious goal of getting the team into the football league.

Real Bedford FC’s proactive stance on cryptocurrency reflects a growing trend among organizations seeking to diversify their assets and explore new financial landscapes.&nbsp;
As the club continues to build its presence both on and off the field, its adoption of Bitcoin sets a precedent for other clubs and businesses considering similar financial strategies. 
Businesses within the crypto space have also been “stacking” Bitcoin in recent purchases, and <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-btc-large-investors-price-analyst">sellers are becoming more reluctant</a> to let go of their holdings. This includes the <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/japans-metaplanet-buys-22-bitcoin-as-btc-nears-65k">Bitcoin investment firm Metaplanet</a>, which purchased 21.88 BTC on July 16. 
According to analysts, Bitcoin’s price currently stands only 8% away from of its all-time high following the news of United States President Joe Biden stepping down as the nominee for the Democratic party in the 2024 election.
