Benzinga - Hong Kong-based gaming company Animoca Brands on Monday disclosed substantial financial holdings and a wide array of investments, in an apparent bid to highlight its strong position in the burgeoning Web3 and blockchain industry.

According to the report, as of Nov. 30, 2023, Animoca Brands has amassed significant financial resources, including $172 million in cash and stablecoins.

Stablecoins, known for their price stability, are a key asset in the volatile cryptocurrency market and are often used to manage transactional operations within the blockchain ecosystem.

In addition to its liquid assets, Animoca Brands reported holding $330 million in third-party tokens, which includes reserves of The Sandbox (CRYPTO: SAND) tokens.

SAND is the utility token used in The Sandbox, a virtual world and game ecosystem where users can create, control, and monetize gaming experiences.

One of the most notable disclosures in the report is Animoca Brands' substantial off-balance sheet token reserves, valued at approximately $1.6 billion.
