BlockBeats News, September 4th - Robot Consulting Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: LAWR), a Japanese platform service provider focusing on human resources solutions, announced today its plan to expand into the legal tech and metaverse fields. The company intends to use part of its available cash resources (which may include the proceeds from its initial public offering completed on July 18, 2025) to invest in Ethereum (ETH). This move is part of the company's long-term strategy to integrate blockchain technology into legal tech projects and establish a digital asset reserve.

The company will mark-to-market its Ethereum holdings on a quarterly basis and any gains or losses from the holdings will be reflected in the company's annual financial statements. If the amount is significant, timely disclosure will be made to investors.
