Good morning, Asia. This is what news is doing in the markets:
Welcome to Asia Morning Briefing, a daily summary of the main stories during the US hours and an overview of the movements and market analysis. To obtain a detailed description of the US markets, see Cryptokook from Coindesk America.
Bitcoin Treasury companies face a simple but brutal test: Can BTC be overcome in themselves, or investors should jump them and buy the asset directly?
“If you are not doing that, there is no reason to do the strategies, just buy a Bitcoin ETF,” said Matt Cole, CEO of Strive Asset Management, during a panel in BTC Asia in Hong Kong.
Cole could be better known for being a firm defender of Gamestop Put BTC on your balance.
On stage, Cole described the play book as an Alfa search, finding ways to overcome BTC without simply accumulating the specific risk of Bitcoin. Cole explained that this is reduced to financing, where he pointed out a change of convertibles to perpetual preferred equity as a way of blocking leverage.
He added that the most difficult milestone is the scale: reaching $ 1 billion in capital, the point where the financing becomes cheap enough to support the largest opi and equipment.
“The most difficult thing to do for Bitcoin Treasury companies is to reach one billion dollars,” he said, citing Michael Saylor in Microstrategy.
That scale, Cole emphasized, only works with Bitcoin. Ethereum and other chips, he said, act too much as actions with changing monetary policies.
“Ethereum is a horrible asset for a treasure company,” Cole said. “Bitcoin perpetually uploads versus fiduciary coins because they are being degraded.”
In his opinion, BTC’s fixed supply makes him the only asset capable of supporting an leverage treasury strategy designed to worsen over time.
Andrew Webley from The Smarter Web Company, a United Kingdom web designer who publicly listed with BTC in the balance sheet, reached a more measured tone with respect to the Nav Market, Bitcoin’s performance versus the dilution and size of the company.
The smallest companies, he said, have an advantage to increase capital, but transparency and clear risk communication remain as important as mathematics.
“The most important thing you can do as a public company, in my opinion, is to publish our rules first,” said Webley, adding that clear dissemination helps investors to understand the compensation of a BTC treasure model.
“If someone can understand the risks, then, in our opinion, these things are the best value opportunities worldwide,” he added.
The division stressed the choice facing investors: invest in companies that seek aggressive strategies to overcome BTC or favor companies that promise constant growth with clear transparency.
Anyway, the panelists agreed that Bitcoin’s role as an asset of the treasure is only expanding as Fiat continues to be degraded.
Market movement:
BTC: Bitcoin is quoted above $ 110,500, quoting a little lower after a minor setback, although the signs of accumulation, such as resistant demand near the key support, suggest that market participants remain optimistic in their next break, according to the Coindesk Insights Market Market.

Nikkei 225: The largest index in Japan continues to recover, driven by a combination of a strong foreign purchase, driven by the change in the country of long -term stimulus, corporate reforms and the increase in yields and monetary signals in the United States, increasing the feeling of global equity.
