Another Corporate Bitcoin Treasury Strategy Ends: From High-Profile Entry to Liquidation at a Massive Loss in 11 Months

French semiconductor company Sequans Communications has sold off its bitcoin holdings and terminated its corporate bitcoin treasury strategy less than a year after launching it, sustaining heavy losses. Facing delisting from the New York Stock Exchange in mid-2025 due to low market capitalization, Sequans announced a plan to hold over 3,000 bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset. The strategy was executed with Swan Bitcoin and backed by a $384 million private financing round. At its peak in October 2025, the company held 3,234 bitcoin with an average cost of approximately $116,643 per coin. However, the plan quickly unraveled. With bitcoin's price falling, Sequans sold 970 bitcoin in late 2025 to repay debt, contradicting the core "hold" philosophy of such corporate strategies. The company has now sold more bitcoin to fully repay its convertible notes and announced the termination of its bitcoin reserve strategy. It plans to liquidate its remaining 658 bitcoin. The venture resulted in significant financial damage. The company reported an unrealized loss of $67.4 million on its bitcoin holdings in 2025, contributing to a total net loss of $109.3 million for the year. Sequans' stock (SQNS) has plummeted over 80% since the strategy's launch and is down 77% year-to-date. CEO Georges Karam, who previously championed bitcoin's long-term value, now states the company will refocus entirely on its core IoT semiconductor business. The failed experiment highlights the risks for companies adopting volatile digital assets as treasury reserves.

US Seizes Nearly $1B in Iranian Crypto Amid Economic Pressure Campaign

The United States has seized nearly $1 billion worth of Iranian cryptocurrency, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced. He noted some wallet owners may be unaware their funds were confiscated. The action is part of "Operation Economic Fury," a U.S. financial pressure campaign against Iran launched in March 2025, which has also involved freezing bank accounts and seizing properties with European partners. Bessent stated that prior to U.S. intervention, the Iranian regime was allegedly diverting hundreds of millions monthly to a small elite. He described Iran's economy as severely strained, with food rationing, internet outages, and many military personnel going unpaid. The $1 billion seizure figure marks a significant increase from previous totals reported in April.

Reframing Ethereum's Valuation: Why the Fee Model is Wrong, and the 'Treasury Logic' is the Future?

"Rethinking Ethereum's Value: The 'Vault Logic' Framework" Traditional valuation models incorrectly treat Ethereum as a company, valuing ETH based on transaction fees ("revenue"). This is flawed. Fees are network friction; a successful network aims to reduce them to zero. Ethereum's average fee has dropped from over $50 in 2021 to around $0.20 today, while transaction volume has tripled. Instead, view Ethereum as a digital vault securing ~$250 billion in on-chain assets (stablecoins, RWAs, L2 bridged funds, wBTC, etc.). Post-merge, Ethereum's security is directly purchased with its own asset: ETH. To attack the network, an attacker must acquire and control staked ETH. Therefore, the vault's security level is intrinsically tied to ETH's market value. Currently, the value of all staked ETH is only ~$72B, protecting ~$250B in assets—a dangerous imbalance. For robust security, the staked ETH securing the network should be valued significantly *higher* than the total value it protects. Applying a conservative security multiplier suggests ETH's fair value should be closer to ~$6,900 (vs. ~$2,070 currently). As on-chain asset value grows into the trillions, ETH's price must rise proportionally to maintain this security budget. Comparisons to free infrastructure like Linux or low-margin utilities like the DTCC are misguided. Their security is provided externally (community, law, banks). Ethereum's security is internal and must be purchased in the open market using ETH. ETH is not the clearinghouse; it is the collateral backing it. The model is not a short-term price predictor but a structural framework. The economic force for ETH appreciation grows monotonically with the adoption of Ethereum for settling value. The narrative that high fees are good is backwards; low fees enable more activity, which increases the value needing protection, thus demanding a more valuable ETH.

Coin & Stock Barometer: Bitcoin Miner MARA Holdings Spends Over $860,000 on Bulletproof Vehicle Services for Executives; Bitmine Included in Preliminary List for FTSE Russell 1000 Index (May 19)

Crypto Market Wrap & Key Corporate Updates (May 19) The crypto market saw a decline followed by a minor rebound, while U.S. crypto-related stocks fell broadly. In corporate news: **MARA Holdings**, a Bitcoin miner, disclosed spending over $869,000 on vehicle ballistic armor services for its CEO and CFO under its security program. The board cited higher risks associated with the company's public disclosure of holding substantial Bitcoin assets. According to BitcoinTreasuries.NET, Elon Musk's **SpaceX and Tesla** collectively hold 30,221 BTC ($2.3B), which would rank them as the fifth-largest public company holder if combined. **DDC Enterprise Limited** increased its Bitcoin holdings by 200 BTC, bringing its total to 2,583 BTC. The firm stated it plans to continue accumulating BTC based on liquidity, not short-term price movements. Bitcoin treasury company **Nakamoto** announced a 1-for-40 reverse stock split to regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement. The company reported a Q1 2026 net loss of $238.8M, partly due to a $102.5M unrealized loss on its Bitcoin holdings. **Tether** acquired SoftBank's stake in **Twenty One Capital (XXI)**, increasing its control. Tether's CEO expressed strengthened confidence in XXI's long-term Bitcoin strategy. Fundstrat's **Tom Lee** stated that **Bitmine (BMNR)** has been included in the preliminary list for the FTSE Russell 1000 Index. Concurrently, two new wallets suspected to be linked to Bitmine withdrew 60,000 ETH ($126M) from Bitgo and Kraken. Solana treasury company **Solmate Infrastructure** announced a registered direct offering of shares to raise approximately $11.4 million. **AI Financial**, a WLFI treasury company, reported a Q1 2026 net loss of $271.5M and raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, partly due to unrealized losses on its WLFI token holdings. **SUI Group** disclosed it holds over 108.7 million SUI tokens (~$115M), with its market cap to net asset value ratio at 0.91x. *Disclaimer: This summary is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.*

Hoskinson Reaffirms Cardano Focus After IO Treasury Proposals Pass

Cardano's community treasury vote has ratified the "Developer Experience Initiative" proposed by Input Output (IO), securing funding for a six-month project to improve developer tooling and onboarding. The proposal passed with 67.90% approval, marking a governance win for founder Charles Hoskinson. He framed the vote as a critical response to developer complaints about fragmented tools and documentation, and a test of Cardano's post-Voltaire governance system, which he declared "real" and functional. The result coincided with Hoskinson publicly reaffirming his "100%" focus on Cardano and its privacy-focused sidechain, Midnight, following news of the closure of a separate personal healthcare venture. He emphasized the importance of ecosystem coordination among key organizations and committed to increased visibility for Cardano and Midnight at upcoming industry events. The broader funding round delivered a mixed outcome, with several other IO proposals failing to pass, indicating the community's selective support for core development work over other infrastructure and ecosystem spending requests.

Eric Trump Sets A “Beyond Catastrophic” Bar To Sell Bitcoin — How Far Are We From That?

Eric Trump, Chief Strategy Officer of American Bitcoin Corp., has declared that the company would only sell its Bitcoin holdings under circumstances he describes as "beyond catastrophic." In an interview, he framed this as a strategic commitment to permanent accumulation, driven by the goal of increasing "satoshis per share" and competing in both the race for the largest Bitcoin holdings and the lowest acquisition cost. The company mines its Bitcoin at a claimed 53% below spot price and retains all coins, drawing a distinction from Michael Saylor's MicroStrategy, which has signaled some flexibility. Trump's stance sets a new benchmark for long-term commitment in the Bitcoin treasury sector. As of the report, Bitcoin trades near $82,000, with American Bitcoin's treasury holding over 7,000 BTC.

NodeStrategy: The First Ordinals DAT Project, Bringing the Strategy Treasury Narrative to NFTs

**Summary: The Fundamental Flaws of NodeStrategy, the 'First Ordinals DAT'** NodeStrategy presents itself as the first Ordinals Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) on Bitcoin. Its model mirrors MicroStrategy's treasury narrative but for NFTs, specifically targeting the NodeMonkes collection (not officially affiliated). The project's core mechanism is a four-step flywheel: a 10% fee on all trades (90% to treasury, 10% to radFi/Bound marketplace) is used to buy NodeMonkes. These NFTs are then listed for sale on Satflow, with 100% of the sale proceeds used to buy back and burn the project's token, NODESTRAT, aiming to create a perpetual value cycle. However, the design contains critical, self-defeating flaws: 1. **Platform Lock-In:** As a Bitcoin Rune, NODESTRAT lacks smart contract functionality and cannot natively enforce the 10% fee. The fee can only be collected on the radFi/Bound marketplace itself. This makes the entire flywheel dependent on a single platform. If liquidity moves elsewhere, fee revenue drops to zero, halting the mechanism. 2. **Self-Suffocating Economics:** The 10% fee acts both as the flywheel's fuel and a major drag on demand. A buy/sell roundtrip incurs a 20% cost, creating a massive hurdle for traders. This strangles the very trading volume needed to generate fees. 3. **Ineffective Value Support:** The flywheel is starved. Low daily volume (~$9K) generates minimal fees for NFT purchases. The NFT "ladder" sales are slow and unpredictable (only 39 total sold), meaning buybacks are infrequent. While 30.77% of the supply has been burned, this supply reduction cannot lift price without corresponding demand, which is suppressed by the high transaction tax. 4. **Meaningless NAV:** The Net Asset Value (NAV), currently at a 0.46x discount to market cap, is merely a marketing figure. There is no redemption mechanism for token holders to claim the underlying NodeMonkes assets. Price is set by market liquidity flows, not by this theoretical backing. In essence, NodeStrategy's design forces its revenue source (trading fees) to simultaneously cripple the demand and liquidity required for its own success, trapping the project in a stagnant state.

Warsh's First Day in Office, Markets Deliver a 'Wake-up Call': Rate Hike Expected This Year

On his first day in office, newly inaugurated Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh received a stark market warning, with expectations now fully pricing in a 25-basis-point interest rate hike this year. The shift was triggered by hawkish remarks from Fed Governor Waller, who stated that inflation is now the key policy "driver" and that the odds of a hike or cut are evenly split. This sent short-term Treasury yields higher. Waller signaled a significant pivot in his stance, citing disappointing inflation and labor data. He suggested removing "easing bias" language from Fed statements and did not rule out future rate increases if inflation fails to recede, though he noted immediate action isn't warranted without signs of unanchored inflation expectations. Chairman Warsh faces immediate pressure at his first FOMC meeting in June. With the preferred inflation gauge at a three-year high, analysts warn that failing to hike could be interpreted as an implicit easing of policy. The geopolitical situation in the Middle East is adding to existing price pressures. The market's expectation for a hike contrasts sharply with earlier forecasts for multiple cuts. While long-term Treasury yields have been contained by lower energy prices recently, analysts note they remain under structural upward pressure. Warsh's swearing-in at the White House highlights political scrutiny over Fed independence. However, the market has made it clear that inflation is the most urgent challenge, leaving the new chairman little time to settle in.

Bitcoin Becomes a National Strategic Asset? U.S. Congressman Proposes Annual Purchase of 200,000 BTC, Locked for 20 Years Without Sale

U.S. Representative Nick Begich (R-Alaska) introduced the "American Reserve Modernization Act" (ARMA) on May 21, aiming to codify a strategic Bitcoin reserve into law. Building on a prior executive order, the bill seeks to establish a permanent national Bitcoin reserve managed by the Treasury Department. The proposed legislation would authorize the Treasury to acquire up to 200,000 Bitcoin annually for five years, targeting a total reserve of 1 million Bitcoin, roughly 5% of the total supply. All acquired Bitcoin would be locked and held for at least 20 years. Representative Begich likened Bitcoin's role in crypto to gold's in precious metals, calling it the dominant store of value in its asset class. The U.S. government currently holds approximately 328,000 Bitcoin, largely from law enforcement seizures, but lacks a coherent management strategy for these assets. Co-sponsors emphasized the urgency of addressing this gap. This move coincides with a wave of crypto-friendly legislation in Washington, including recent bipartisan committee approval of a major digital asset market structure bill. Concurrently, the Treasury has intensified crackdowns on illicit crypto finance, seizing hundreds of millions in assets, further highlighting the need for a comprehensive digital asset strategy. The White House has indicated that operational details for the strategic Bitcoin reserve are forthcoming, with key legal hurdles reportedly cleared.

Hoskinson Warns Cardano Could Lose Its ‘Science Coin’ Edge

Charles Hoskinson warns that Cardano risks losing its identity as the "science coin" if DReps fail to approve a key research funding proposal. He explains the ecosystem is in "treasury season" with a tougher funding environment, requesting $52 million this year versus $98 million last year, leading to cuts and layoffs. Hoskinson argues Cardano's research program is its "spine and backbone," responsible for its differentiation through work on proof-of-stake, extended UTXO, Plutus, and academic collaborations. He rejects calls to selectively fund parts of the research group, warning that treating researchers as commodities could lead to an irreplaceable talent drain to better-funded rivals. Hoskinson ties research funding to Cardano's long-term investment case, stating that without it, the project would lose a core value proposition. He ends with a direct appeal to DReps to vote for the proposal, calling it a necessary foundation for Cardano's future.
