The post Only a handful of Bitcoin treasury companies will survive: Report appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Only a few Bitcoin (BTC) treasury companies will stand the test of time and avoid the vicious “death spiral” that will impact BTC holding companies that trade close to net asset value (NAV), a business entity’s total assets minus its liabilities, according to a report from venture capital (VC) firm Breed. The health of Bitcoin treasury companies hinges on their ability to command a multiple of their net asset value (MNAV), the authors wrote.

The authors of the report wrote: “Ultimately, only a select few companies will sustain a lasting MNAV premium. They will earn it through strong leadership, disciplined execution, savvy marketing, and distinctive strategies that continue to grow Bitcoin-per-share regardless of broader market fluctuations.” This death spiral could trigger the next crypto bear market. However, the authors of the report said that since most BTC treasury companies currently finance their purchases with equity rather than debt, the implosion may be contained.
