Key Takeaways:
- Genius Group plans to split potential lawsuit proceeds, estimated over $1 billion, between Bitcoin purchases and shareholder dividends.
- 50% of any recovered funds will go to shareholders, while the other 50% will be used to buy Bitcoin.
- The company aims to build a 1,000 BTC reserve, already boosting its treasury by over 50% in June.
Genius Group, an AI-focused edtech company, has unveiled a bold plan to use proceeds from two pending lawsuits to reward shareholders and grow its Bitcoin reserves.
The lawsuits, which collectively seek over $1 billion in damages, include a $750 million RICO case against LZGI International and another yet-to-be-filed case.
50% of legal wins go to $GNS shareholders as special dividend, 50% to $BTC Bitcoin Treasury. No guarantee how much we recover, but in a utopian alternate universe where justice prevails $1B damages = $7/share dividend + 5,000 $BTC.

CEO Roger Hamilton estimates the company is currently pursuing at least $262 million in damages, with potential for more once updated data is included.
Under the proposed distribution plan, 50% of any legal winnings will be paid out as special dividends to shareholders, while the remaining 50% will be used for Bitcoin purchases.
If both lawsuits succeed, shareholders could receive up to $7 per share, and Genius Group may acquire around 5,000 BTC at current market prices.
This strategy aligns with the company’s growing interest in Bitcoin, which saw a 50% increase in its crypto treasury as of June 17.
Previously, Genius Group faced a temporary ban on Bitcoin-related activities, but those restrictions have since been lifted.
The board emphasized that while the distribution framework is approved, there is no guarantee of successful outcomes or payouts.
Future legal wins will follow the same structure, further integrating Bitcoin into the company’s long-term financial strategy.
