Twenty One Capital, a Bitcoin treasury firm, has expanded its holdings by acquiring 5,800 BTC from Tether, bringing its total to 43,500 BTC (worth ~$5.1 billion).

CEO Jack Mallers envisions Twenty One as a disruptive force in finance, built on Bitcoin and proof-based reserves. The firm’s SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners (Nasdaq: CEP) signals growing institutional interest in crypto.

Twenty One Capital is set to receive 5,800 BTC from stablecoin issuer Tether, increasing its total Bitcoin holdings to over 43,500 BTC and securing its position as the third-largest corporate Bitcoin holder. The firm will introduce Bitcoin Per Share (BPS), a metric to provide transparency by showing the Bitcoin backing each share. CEO Jack Mallers emphasized the company’s vision to reshape the financial system with Bitcoin as its foundation. The move aligns with a growing trend of Bitcoin treasury strategies, though critics warn of risks. Analysts argue that such firms are deploying intelligent leverage and pose no systemic risk, while the real danger lies in being underexposed as institutional demand grows.
read moreBitcoin’s Role in US Fiscal Strategy: Mallers’ Insight
In a recent video, Strike founder Jack Mallers posited that Bitcoin’s rising price is becoming essential for US fiscal stability, as stablecoin expansion drives demand for US Treasuries. He highlighted the GENIUS Act as a landmark for digital assets, though not directly tied to Bitcoin. Mallers argued that the US is fiscally trapped, unable to raise rates or cut spending, leaving dollar debasement against Bitcoin and gold as the only escape. He projected Bitcoin could hit $500,000, boosting stablecoin demand for US debt fivefold. Mallers also noted political shifts, like Bitcoin investments in retirement accounts, as tools to mitigate public resistance to dollar devaluation. At press time, BTC traded at $118,055.

BitMine Immersion Technologies saw its shares surge dramatically, closing at $135—a 2,150% increase from earlier in the week—after naming Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee as board chair. The rally followed the announcement of an Ethereum treasury strategy, with Lee predicting a stablecoin-driven demand surge. BitMine raised $250M in a private placement involving major crypto investors, though participants face trading restrictions. Meanwhile, other crypto treasury firms like SharpLink Gaming and Upexi faced steep declines after SEC filings took effect. BitMine aims to maximize shareholder value through digital asset accumulation, leveraging staking and DeFi opportunities.
read moreWhy Corporate Bitcoin Buys Aren’t Moving BTC Price
Major corporations and Wall Street institutions are buying billions in Bitcoin weekly, yet its price remains flat. Analysts point to five key factors: 1) Real Bitcoin is being accumulated through ETFs by firms like BlackRock and Fidelity, removing coins from circulation. 2) Exchange liquidity is largely ‘paper Bitcoin’ (IOUs), masking true supply. 3) Whales are quietly rotating old supply without impacting public markets. 4) Volatility is being suppressed as institutions need price stability for compliance. 5) The breakout is being delayed intentionally, as once Bitcoin moves significantly higher, it may not retrace. The market appears to be in a controlled accumulation phase before a potential major move.
read moreTether’s Potential $515B Valuation If It Goes Public
Artemis CEO Jon Ma’s analysis projects Tether’s potential market valuation at $515 billion if it goes public, placing it among the world’s largest corporations. The estimate is based on a 69.3x EBITDA multiple, similar to Circle’s valuation, and assumes Tether’s USDT supply will grow to $170 billion by 2025. Tether reported $13 billion in net profits for 2024, driven by Treasuries, repos, and unrealized gains on Bitcoin and gold. While CEO Paolo Ardoino deemed the valuation ‘bearish,’ Bitcoin advocates argue it could exceed $1 trillion. Tether remains the dominant stablecoin, with expanding offerings like EURT and XAUt, reinforcing its role in bridging crypto and traditional finance. The speculative valuation underscores Tether’s influence, though an IPO remains uncertain.
