Bitcoin Treasury Adoption Surges: Meet the New MicroStrategys

Cointime Official

From bitcoinmagazine by Nikolaus Hoffman

MicroStrategy’s corporate Bitcoin treasury strategy is taking off. Public companies are FOMO’ing into bitcoin. It’s almost as if Trump’s pro-Bitcoin stance is giving companies the green light to stack BTC.

Yesterday alone, seven public companies announced that they have bought or plan to buy bitcoin for their treasury reserves, with one new company committing to purchasing $1 million in BTC today. Crazy, right? It has felt like a minimum of one to two new companies a day are adopting bitcoin as a reserve asset — not to mention all the companies getting bitcoin exposure via the ETFs.

It’s surreal to witness the FOMO from companies adopting a corporate Bitcoin playbook in real time. I mean, Michael Saylor has been preaching this and leading by example for the last four and a half years, and now that we’re almost at $100,000 bitcoin, companies are FOMOing in en masse.

Was it the dramatic increase in bitcoin’s price that catalyzed this surge in more and more companies adopting Bitcoin, the incoming Trump presidency, or are companies finally taking Saylor’s advice seriously after his strategy has proven to be successful? It’s hard to tell — it’s probably a mix of all three.

Beyond the borders of the U.S., other companies are also adopting the MicroStrategy playbook — and reaping the benefits of it. Metaplanet, a publicly-traded Japanese company, went from a zombie company to ranked #29 out of 4,000 listed companies in Japan by trading value since adopting a corporate Bitcoin strategy. Unreal.

Over the course of the next year I’m expecting this corporate Bitcoin adoption to only increase as the price of bitcoin rises and Trump takes office.

“Welcome to the Bitcoin Standard” — Michael Saylor.

  • UK inflation higher than expected, markets reduce BoE rate cut pricing

    following higher-than-expected inflation data in the UK, the yield on UK government bonds rose due to an increase in market expectations of a reduction in the number of interest rate cuts. The overall inflation rate in the UK rose from 1.7% in September to 2.3% in October, higher than the economists' consensus expectation of 2.2% in a survey by The Wall Street Journal. Richard Flax, Chief Investment Officer of Moneyfarm, said in a report that "the cautious attitude of policymakers still lowers the possibility of a rate cut in December" due to the rise in inflation. According to data from the London Stock Exchange Group, the market expects a 16% probability of a rate cut by the Bank of England in December. Data from trading platform Tradeweb shows that the yield on 10-year UK government bonds rose 5 basis points to 4.485%, while the yield on 2-year UK government bonds rose 4 basis points to 4.451%.

  • Bank for International Settlements: Liquidity provision in DEXs like Uniswap is not decentralized

    On November 19th, the Bank for International Settlements released a working paper that delved into the liquidity supply of DEX Uniswap v3. In this study, the Bank for International Settlements investigated whether the liquidity supply of DEX truly realizes the democratization of the financial market or if it is dominated by a few large companies that mimic traditional markets. The Bank for International Settlements found that, apart from technical implementation, liquidity supply is not dispersed. Its research results show that the performance of retail liquidity providers is inferior to that of a few dominant participants in the liquidity market.
