Grayscale pointed out in its research report in early June: The spot ETPs listed in the United States can be considered the most important new source of demand for Bitcoin since its launch. During May, these products continued to maintain high net inflows, totaling $5.2 billion. In the coming months, the Bitcoin purchases by "Bitcoin Treasury" companies (i.e., listed companies buying Bitcoin for their balance sheets) may remain flat or even exceed the purchases of spot Bitcoin ETPs.

I. From Mainstream Coins to Altcoins, Corporate Treasuries are Sparking a Crypto Trend
BTC
1. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), 592,345 BTC, Market Value $63.018 Billion
Strategy is undoubtedly a major coin holder. Strategy first announced in 2020 that it would use Bitcoin as its primary reserve asset, allocating company funds to Bitcoin, while actively raising funds to increase Bitcoin holdings. They view Bitcoin as a long-term value storage and inflation hedging tool, and use a "buy and hold" strategy to benefit from Bitcoin price appreciation, with the goal of becoming a "digital gold treasury".
On June 24, Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor tweeted that Strategy's Bitcoin strategy continues to be significantly effective. According to the latest data, the company has accumulated 592,345 BTC, with a total market value of $63.018 billion. Against the backdrop of Bitcoin price rising to $105,269, MicroStrategy has added 85,871 BTC year-to-date, realizing a book gain of $9.04 billion. Since the beginning of 2024, the company's Bitcoin holdings have grown by 74.3%, with a cumulative profit of $13.133 billion.

13. Upexi, 596,714 SOL, Market Value of $87.12 Million
As of May 12, 2025, Upexi holds approximately 596,714 SOL, currently valued at $87.12 million, including spot and locked tokens, purchased with a total funding of $84.20 million, at an average cost of $141.10 per SOL. Upexi plans to drive long-term asset appreciation and generate returns for shareholders by accumulating and staking SOL. Its CFO Andrew Norstrud stated that under a long-term "buy and hold" strategy, purchasing discounted locked SOL can provide intrinsic returns for shareholders, with the discount gradually disappearing over time. By staking locked SOL under controlled risk, the combination of the discount and approximately 1.4 years weighted term effectively doubles the staking yield for shareholders.
14. Janover Inc., 317,273 SOL, Market Value of $46.32 Million
Janover Inc. is a Nasdaq-listed fintech company headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, focusing on commercial real estate loan brokerage.
In April 2025, Janover announced an additional purchase of 163,651.7 SOL, becoming a typical case of a traditional industry crossing into the crypto market. Combined with previous purchases, Janover's total SOL holdings reached 317,273, valued at approximately $46.32 million (including staking rewards).
On April 4, the company's board approved incorporating SOL into its corporate treasury, and completed the market purchase on April 15. Janover plans to stake these tokens to earn 5-7% annual yield and is considering operating a Solana network validator node to participate in ecosystem development. The funding for this initiative comes from its cash reserves and a $42 million convertible bond raised from crypto industry institutions like Pantera Capital and Kraken on April 7.
15. SOL Global Investments Corp., 260,000 SOL, $37.96 Million
SOL Global Investments Corp. is a Toronto-based Canadian investment company focused on exploring the potential of cryptocurrencies, blockchain, and emerging technologies.
In 2025, SOL Global further focused on Solana (SOL), consolidating its pioneering position in the crypto market by acquiring an additional 40,350 SOL (valued at around $8.70 million). In January 2025, SOL Global announced raising funds through a $18 million directed share issuance, with $10 million directly used to purchase SOL, and remaining funds invested in Solana ecosystem's DeFi and NFT projects. As of March, approximately 60% of the 40,350 SOL was staked and locked on the Solana network to earn a 6.26% annual yield. The latest news indicates that SOL Global currently holds around 260,000 SOL. The company's CEO Paul Kania previously stated in an announcement: We aim to become a Solana super company, providing public market investors with a direct channel to participate in Solana's transformation opportunities.

Inflation essentially means the decline in purchasing power of fiat currency, while Bitcoin, as a decentralized asset, is not affected by monetary policies of a single country. When central banks implement loose policies (such as lowering interest rates or printing money), expectations of fiat currency devaluation increase, and some funds may flow into Bitcoin to seek value preservation. Moreover, Bitcoin has a "halving" mechanism that reduces its annual inflation rate over time (currently around 1.7%, dropping to 0.85% after the 2024 halving), gradually approaching zero, which is far lower than the inflation rates of most countries' fiat currencies.
3. Occupy Emerging Financial Markets
Enterprises holding cryptocurrencies essentially represent a layout of the "Blockchain + Web3" technology ecosystem, positioning themselves at the forefront of Web3 technology. Large enterprises buying cryptocurrencies can be seen as a signal of capturing emerging financial markets and will to some extent influence the company's development prospects.
For example, in February 2021, Tesla announced the purchase of $1.5 billion in Bitcoin and planned to accept Bitcoin as payment. This move caused Tesla's stock price to rise by over 10% in a week, with its market value briefly exceeding $80 billion (previously around $70 billion), and Musk's subsequent series of cryptocurrency-related comments continue to attract significant attention.
David Bailey, president of Bitcoin Magazine, stated that every time a company adds Bitcoin to its corporate treasury, it eliminates a traditional company that does not own Bitcoin. Now, corporate liquidity is essentially Bitcoin's liquidity, and companies that do not join may face "death".
4. Promising Crypto Market Future
In 2009, when BTC first emerged, its value was close to zero; in 2013, BTC rose from $13 to $1,200; in 2017, the ICO boom pushed BTC close to $20,000; in 2021, BTC reached a new high of $69,000; in 2024, BTC price rose from around $42,000 at the beginning of the year to $108,000; in 2025, BTC broke a new high of $110,000.
Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, believes that BTC price will grow 15-fold in the next five years. "BTC represents a unique global monetary system, and its volatility is decreasing as more investors hold it."
