Grayscale has disclosed that it will periodically reopen private subscriptions to qualified investors based on the net asset value (NAV) of these assets.

This move by Grayscale is part of its ongoing strategy to provide investment opportunities in the cryptocurrency market to accredited investors.

๐Ÿš€ Kerrisdale Capital Short-Sells Bitmine Amid Declining DAT Model

According to BlockBeats, Kerrisdale Capital, a well-known short-selling firm, has announced its decision to short-sell the stocks of Bitmine, a company involved in Ethereum treasury reserves. Kerrisdale Capital criticizes the Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) model, describing it as mundane and lacking innovation. The firm highlights that the market is saturated with similar projects, leading to a collapse in premiums and diminishing the ability to enhance per-share Ethereum content through stock issuance above net asset value (NAV).

Companies pursuing the 'crypto asset treasury strategy' have collectively aimed to raise over $100 billion, undermining the scarcity that initially supported high premiums. Currently, many of these companies' stocks are trading at or below their net value, with self-reinforcing mechanisms stalling and models beginning to crumble.

MicroStrategy (MSTR), one of the earliest DAT companies, has seen its premium drop from 2โ€“2.5 times its net value to approximately 1.4 times. This decline is attributed to unpopular financing and policy fluctuations, which have eroded market confidence. Bitmine (BMNR) is experiencing a continuous decrease in its premium, with expectations of further decline to match or fall below its net value. As premiums decrease, the rate of per-share Ethereum appreciation slows, potentially dropping below 1. Currently, its market value to net value ratio (MNav) stands at about 1.4 times, indicating over 40% potential downside.

๐Ÿš€ BMNR Stock Declines Amid Criticism of Digital Asset Treasury Model

According to BlockBeats, BMNR shares fell by 3.55% during trading, reducing its market capitalization to $16.5 billion. Kerrisdale Capital, a notable short-selling firm, has announced its short position on Bitmine, a company involved in Ethereum treasury reserves.

The firm highlighted that the market is saturated with similar projects, leading to a collapse in premium valuations. The ability to enhance the per-share Ethereum content by issuing stocks above net asset value (NAV) is diminishing.

Companies pursuing the 'crypto asset treasury strategy' have collectively aimed to raise over $100 billion, undermining the scarcity that initially supported high premiums. Currently, many of these companies' stocks are trading near or below their net asset value, indicating a stagnation in their self-sustaining mechanisms and a breakdown of their models.

๐Ÿš€ Du Jun Criticizes Shorting Ethereum Amid Market Trends

According to BlockBeats, ABCDE co-founder Du Jun expressed on social media that while shorting premium treasury companies like BMNR is feasible, shorting Ethereum would be unwise.

Previously, BlockBeats reported that the well-known short-selling firm Kerrisdale Capital announced it had shorted the stock of Ethereum treasury reserve company Bitmine. Kerrisdale Capital argued that the Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) model has become mundane and lacks innovation. As nearly identical projects flood the market, premiums are collapsing, and the ability to increase the per-share Ethereum content by issuing stock above net asset value (NAV) is diminishing.

Companies pursuing the "crypto asset treasury strategy" have collectively aimed to raise over $100 billion, undermining the scarcity that once supported high premiums. Currently, many of these companies' stocks are trading at or below their net value, with their self-sustaining mechanisms stalling and models beginning to collapse.

๐Ÿš€ Strategy's Bitcoin Holdings Unlikely to Be Sold for Debt Repayment

According to BlockBeats, Matrixport's recent analysis highlights that Strategy remains a significant beneficiary in the current Bitcoin bull market. Concerns have been raised about whether the company might be forced to sell its Bitcoin holdings to repay debts. However, based on the current asset-liability structure and debt maturity distribution, the likelihood of such a scenario occurring in the short term is considered low and not a primary risk factor.

Investors who bought in at high premiums are currently under the most pressure. Most of Strategy's financing occurred when the stock price was near its historical peak of $474, and the net asset value (NAV) per share was at its highest. As the NAV gradually declined and premiums compressed, the stock price fell from $474 to $207, resulting in significant unrealized losses for those who entered at high premium levels.

Using the current Bitcoin price increase as a reference, Strategy's stock price has significantly retreated from its previous highs, making its valuation relatively more attractive. Additionally, there is still an expectation of being included in the S&P 500 index in December. Despite this, the recent adjustment serves as a reminder that both timing and valuation are crucial, and investors need to exercise caution in controlling entry prices and timing their purchases.

๐Ÿš€ BitMine Faces Significant Losses on Ethereum Holdings

According to PANews, a recent report by 10x Research reveals that BitMine, the largest corporate holder of Ethereum globally, is experiencing substantial losses. The report indicates that BitMine is losing $1,000 per Ethereum compared to its average cost, resulting in a total unrealized loss of $3.7 billion on its Ethereum holdings.

The report highlights that the decline in the net asset value (NAV) of corporate crypto treasury companies is making it challenging to attract new retail investors. Many existing shareholders are effectively 'trapped' unless they sell at significantly reduced prices. As premiums inevitably drop to zero, investors may find themselves stuck in this structure, unable to exit without incurring substantial losses. Unlike ETFs, digital asset treasury companies (DATs) have complex, opaque, and often hedge fund-like fee structures that quietly erode returns.

Data from Bitminetracker shows that BitMine's basic mNAV is 0.77, with a diluted mNAV of 0.92. BitMine holds approximately 3.56 million ETH, valued at around $10.7 billion, accounting for 2.94% of the total Ethereum supply. The company's average cost basis is $4,051 per ETH. Other digital asset treasury companies, including Strategy, Bitmine, Metaplanet, Sharplink Gaming, Upexi, and DeFi Development Corp, have also seen significant declines in their mNAV.
