Today the general meeting of a certain Finnish company that already owns about 1% of XMR outstanding, has decided to refocus the company's mission to be a Monero fund, with the objective of converting its BTC holdings to XMR, and issuing shares to select parties and use the proceeds to acquire more XMR.
The global appeal of Monero is great which is why I have been so involved in trying to encourage translations into multiple languages while focusing primarily on my Chinese marketing plans behind the scenes.
I fully expect the type of plan rpietila is describing to be repeated in other parts of the world (perhaps first by individuals or small groups before companies like the one he mentions) in the months and years to come. Unfortunately buying 1% of XMR may not be as easy for those who wait too long based on the slowing emission schedule
