Coin Stock Barometer丨BitMine's Total Assets and Investment Reach $10.7 Billion, Exceeding ~$9.3 Billion Floating Loss; Strategy Buys Only 520 BTC, Strive Adds Positions Against the Trend (June 23)
This article provides a weekly market update on "coin-equity" trends, focusing on listed companies holding major cryptocurrencies. Key highlights include:
**General Market Trends:** Global equities, particularly in the US, Japan, and South Korea, faced significant sell-offs, led by large tech and AI-related stocks. Analysts cite profit-taking and a shift from hype-driven to performance-driven valuation for AI companies. Market focus is on upcoming Micron Technology's earnings.
**Cryptocurrency Treasury Updates:**
* **Bitcoin (BTC):** Net weekly BTC purchases by listed companies (excluding miners) totaled approximately $86 million, down 13.97% from the prior week. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) purchased only 520 BTC for ~$34.9 million, while Strive Asset Management increased its holdings by 759 BTC for ~$50 million. Other notable actions include Mara Holdings adding 1,000 BTC and Capital B shareholders approving a massive financing plan (up to ~$1.2 trillion) to potentially expand its Bitcoin reserves.
* **Ethereum (ETH):** BitMine emerged as the largest corporate ETH treasury, holding 5.67 million ETH (4.7% of supply). It purchased an additional 52,203 ETH ($92 million) in the past week. Sharplink completed a $75 million private placement to fund further ETH accumulation and stock buybacks.
* **Solana (SOL):** The top five listed companies hold over 15.7 million SOL combined. However, Solmate Infrastructure, a SOL treasury firm, faces a lawsuit from its largest external shareholder alleging board misconduct and self-dealing.
* **Other:** Updates include Canton Strategic's $50 million stock buyback plan and Lite Strategy's $1 million strategic investment in LitVM, a Layer-2 network for Litecoin.
The article notes that while crypto treasury firms continue fundraising and accumulation, their stocks may struggle to rise against the broader market downturn until Q4.
