SoftBank to Expand OpenAI Investment, Will AI Cryptos Respond?

SoftBank plans to expand its investment in OpenAI, potentially increasing the AI firm's valuation to around $830 billion. This move aims to strengthen SoftBank's position in the AI sector and support OpenAI amid rising competition. Following the news, some AI cryptocurrencies, like Bittensor (TAO) and Story (IP), saw slight gains, though others declined. The overall AI crypto market cap rose slightly to $18.09 billion. However, the market remains volatile due to factors like global trade uncertainty and gold's rally to record highs, which is attracting safe-haven investors. Official details of SoftBank's additional investment have not yet been publicly confirmed.

Twenty One Plunges Nearly 20% on Debut: The Valuation Mystery of the Third-Largest Bitcoin DAT

Twenty One Capital (NYSE: XXI), a Bitcoin-focused asset reserve company backed by Tether and SoftBank, debuted on the New York Stock Exchange on December 9. Despite its strong backing and large Bitcoin holdings, its stock plunged nearly 20% on the first trading day. The company holds 43,514 BTC, making it the third-largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally, yet its market valuation sits at just $186 million—a mere 4.6% of its Bitcoin's market value. This extreme discount stems from its reliance on "shareholder injections" rather than open-market purchases. Most of its Bitcoin came directly from Tether, raising transparency and sustainability concerns. The broader Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) model is under pressure, with most major Bitcoin-holding companies trading below their net asset value. While proponents like Michael Saylor argue Bitcoin will become a foundational asset in the digital economy, the market remains skeptical in the short term, demanding more proof of the model’s resilience.
