What stands out at the time, is the growing interest from global companies like Germany’s Next Technology (5,833 coin), China’s Cango Inc. (4,240 BTC), and Canada’s Netcoins (1,788 BTC).

While some are increasing their accumulations for example Cleanspark and Bitfarms have doubled down since beginning. These Bitcoin Treasury Companies are not just investing, they are hinting long term belief, despite short term market noise.

States are Stacking Too: National Reserve Eye Golden Asset

Beyond the Public Bitcoin Treasury Companies craze , governments of different states are also showing interest in new reserves strategies. Top nations include the U.S. with 200,000 coins (though not formally in treasury yet), China with 194,000 coins, UK 61,245 coins, and Ukraine with 46,300 coins.

Emerging economies like India, Kazakhstan, and even Pakistan are exploring reserve diversification with the token, either through direct holdings, local mining policies, or crypto taxation models.

Why is The Token Falling Despite Strong Market Structure?

Even with such bullish accumulation, the currency is down 3.86% in last 7 days, currently trading around $114,028 with the market cap of $2.26 trillion.

But the question is why is the digital currency suddenly driving downwards, especially after hitting its all time high of 123K last month? Or is Robert Kiyosaki’s “ Bitcoin August Curse ” term true?

Well August is historically a slow month for crypto markets. Add to that Weak U.S. Jobs data, Mixed Fed rate cut signals, global political tensions, keep traders cautious, and slowing the inflow in space.

Looking Forward: What Could Change the Game?

The Public Bitcoin Treasury Companies holdings is not just a number, it’s a directional shift. As of today 19.9 million BTC have been minted, and 3.65 million are already out of circulation as distributed in different sectors like Custodian, public-private holdings, ETFs & funds, DeFi Protocols.

BTC may look volatile, but behind the scenes, the free float is shrinking fast, as it is no longer a speculative plaything. It is now becoming a reserved, strategic asset for varied institutions.
