Their reserves are a result of enforcement seizures and opportunistic accumulation. Meanwhile, on-chain demand remains stable, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/what-are-defi-a-complete-guide-to-decentralized-finance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DeFi<\/a> protocols and smart contracts manage 376,000 BTC. Additionally, private companies and custodial platforms maintain smaller but relevant positions, according to Cryptorank.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>Bitcoin Treasury Companies Enter A Pressure Phase<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>Treasury-focused Bitcoin businesses are facing a structural reckoning. Galaxy Research said digital asset treasury businesses have entered a \u201cDarwinian phase\u201d as equity valuations fell below Bitcoin\u2019s net asset value. That disconnect caused a reversal in the expansion that the issuance had fueled with rapid growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The downturn intensified after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/what-is-bitcoin-btc-history-and-beginner-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bitcoin<\/a> fell from its October high above $126,000 to lows near $80,000, eroding risk appetite and accelerating market-wide deleveraging. Open interest collapsed, spot liquidity thinned, and leveraged trading unwound at a rapid pace. The October 10 washout broke the feedback loop that allowed treasury firms to raise capital at premiums and accumulate more Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Equities that used to represent a leveraged exposure to BTC are now magnifying the losses. Galaxy said while financial engineering amplified the impact of volatility on both sides of the cycle, the downside impact is far more visible now as liquidity tightens. Treasury companies are now under pressure to make their business models work without the valuation gap, which, in the past, supported expansion.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span>Bitcoin Treasury Firm Advances Toward Public Listing<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span>Momentum within the treasury segment has been accelerated following the shareholder approval of Twenty One Capital, Inc.\u2019s business combination with Cantor Equity Partners. CEP\u2019s vote in favor of the merger clears the way for final regulatory steps, with closing around December 8.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Upon completion, this combined entity will trade under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/jack-mallers-leads-new-bitcoin-venture-with-one-of-the-largest-btc-holdings-in-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twenty One Capital<\/a> name. Its Class A common stock is expected to <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jackmallers\/status\/1996386047979372857\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">start<\/a> trading on the New York Stock Exchange on December 9 under the ticker XXI. The firm is positioning itself as the first Bitcoin native company to come to public markets and is looking to enter capital markets to channel credibility and access to capital in traditional financial channels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Despite these pressures, Bitcoin has experienced a minor resurgence. It is up about 2.5% on the week, trading above $93,000 after a sharp intraday recovery early Monday. Nevertheless, its price is still 26% lower than its all-time high price in October.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All news is rigorously fact-checked and reviewed by leading blockchain experts and seasoned industry insiders.
