What happens to a company’s share price when it gets into crypto

Bitcoin

Cryptocurrency is capturing the attention of the world’s investors.

This is demonstrated by the massive increase in share price of companies which have adopted cryptocurrency terminology in their names.

Many listed companies have integrated terminology such as “blockchain”, “fintech”, and “crypto” into their names in recent months – and their shares have skyrocketed.

While several of these companies plan to expand into the fintech and blockchain industries, others have simply capitalised on the hype around cryptocurrency.

An example of the latter is a company formerly known as SkyPeople Fruit Juice – which changed its name to the crypto-friendly “Future Fintech Group”.

Future Fintech Group continues to manufacture and sell packaged fruit and juices, and plans to expand its kiwi and orange plantations in the coming year.
