Let me quote from the article:
According to Pal, Temasek which holds about $306 billion in assets under management, has been buying virgin Bitcoin from miners.
And this is the company:

Interesting to see how much they are willing to invest on bitcoin though, it said they manage a net portfolio of $306 billion, that's huge, but I speculate that they could be just testing some grounds on bitcoin and could be investing in millions initially.
I am a little surprised by this news, because I thought that governments would not show interest in buying bitcoins. This contradicts their nature, and the general strategy of most states in relation to cryptocurrency has not yet been formed, they are unlikely to massively buy bitcoins.
At the same time, Singapore has always been distinguished by a positive interest in all new technologies, including a friendly attitude towards cryptocurrency, and many new cryptocurrency companies registered and launched their projects in Singapore.
Cryptocurrency is developing rapidly and the attitude of states and their governments towards it can also change. Well, let's see what happens next.
