Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto. It enables peer-to-peer electronic cash transactions without intermediaries like banks or governments, operating on a blockchain secured by Proof of Work mining and the SHA-256 cryptographic algorithm.   With a fixed supply cap of 21 million coins and programmatic halvings every four years that reduce miner rewards, Bitcoin is designed as a deflationary digital asset often called "digital gold." Its value stems from solving the double-spending problem without trusted intermediaries, creating the first truly scarce digital asset with censorship resistance and permissionless access that no government, corporation, or individual can control.  Bitcoin operates as a decentralized peer-to-peer network where transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, distributed across thousands of computers globally. Transactions are grouped into blocks added approximately every 10 minutes through mining, where specialized computers compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles.   Bitcoin has achieved mainstream adoption through multiple vectors. The January 2024 SEC approval of 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs opened Bitcoin investment to traditional finance participants, and corporations like Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) are using Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset to protect against currency debasement, offering MSTR holders amplified exposure to Bitcoin.   The Bitcoin ecosystem continues to evolve with innovations like Ordinals, which emerged in January 2023 to enable NFT-like functionality directly on Bitcoin, and BRC-20 tokens, an experimental standard for creating fungible tokens using Ordinal inscriptions. BTCFi (Bitcoin Finance) represents emerging financial applications extending beyond Bitcoin's traditional role, with protocols like Babylon allowing Bitcoin holders to stake BTC to secure Proof of Stake chains.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin is experiencing heightened volatility amidst escalating geopolitical tensions, particularly surrounding tariffs and international relations, further compounded by ongoing uncertainty regarding the CLARITY Act. This environment has sharply divided the community, with many expressing concern about a potential "bear market" and questioning Bitcoin's "digital gold" narrative. Conversely, a substantial segment views current price action as a prime "buy the dip" opportunity, anticipating a significant rebound fueled by continued long-term accumulation.

SSgA Active Trust - SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust

The S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is experiencing heightened volatility and active discussion following new tariff threats against European allies and the Supreme Court's delayed ruling on existing tariffs. While many investors are seeing this as a 'buy the dip' opportunity, anticipating a swift market recovery, others are expressing deep concern over potential trade wars and broader implications for global trade relationships.

POET Technologies, Inc. engages in the designing, developing, manufacturing and sale of opto-electronic solutions for the sensing, data communications and telecommunications markets. It developed POET Optical Interposer platform, which allows the integration of electronic and photonic devices into a single multi-chip module. The company was founded on November 14, 1985 and is headquartered in Toronto, Canada.

POET Technologies Inc

He argued that the scale is about 1% of the U.S. dollar supply.

That would make it the sixth most profitable bank in the world, and its market value would rank second only to JPMorgan. A crypto-native stablecoin issuer would effectively be the second-biggest bank in the world — with around 300 employees, versus JPMorgan’s 300,000. It’s a crypto-native company using blockchain as settlement. And since most of Tether runs on Ethereum, it’s a better bank than a bank.” -Tom Lee, Chairman Of BitMine Immersion Technologies</blockquote>Lee framed the comparison as part of a broader clash over the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act).

This will allow people to verify data themselves and allow Ethereum to be less reliant on centralised infrastructure.&nbsp;<blockquote>“Every compromise of values that Ethereum has made up to this point - every moment where you might have been thinking, is it really worth diluting ourselves so much in the name of mainstream adoption - we are making that compromise no longer.”&nbsp;</blockquote><a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/ethereum">Ethereum (ETH)</a> was trading at $3,294.95, flat in the last 24 hours.

Retail sentiment around the company trended in ‘bullish’ territory amid ‘high’ levels of chatter.Vitalik’s outlook for 2026 was positioned as a “rebellion” against centralized tech giants, and avoid hype like political meme coins. It will be interesting to see his take on a publicly listed company keeping Ethereum in its coffers.Meanwhile, Altman’s Worldcoin (WLD) project is the primary treasury asset of Eightco (ORBS). BMNR pitched in $20 million during the company’s $270 million strategic fund raise, and the ORBS’ stock is the company’s first ‘moonshot’ investment.<h2 class="st-heading-2">If Shareholders Vote No, The Company Won’t Grow</h2>Lee said&nbsp;the&nbsp;upcoming shareholder vote was pivotal because Bitmine is running out of authorized shares to buy more Ethereum. The company has proposed to increase its authorized shares from 500 million to 50 billion.Lee said that without shareholder approval, the company can’t issue new shares, which means it can’t buy&nbsp;more&nbsp;Ethereum or make any acquisitions. He positioned it as the company essentially stagnating without a catalyst. “If you don't vote in favor of increasing the shares, the company will stop growing,” he said, noting that for the proposal to pass, it need 50.1% votes.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/ethereum">Ethereum’s price</a> edged 0.3% lower in the last 24 hours, holding ground above $3,300. Retail sentiment around the leading altcoin on Stocktwits dipped to ‘bearish’ from ‘neutral’ over the past day.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Is Bitmine Looking To Acquire Another Crypto DAT?</h2>Lee added that the reason the size of the increase is so large is that the process doesn’t have to be repeated. He said it's a time-consuming and expensive endeavour, which would require another full shareholder campaign if repeated.&nbsp;“There's no organic reason to go to 50 billion shares, but for share splits, we're going to need it in the future and we’re going to need it for future acquisitions. We may acquire another financial institution,” he said, hinting that Bitmine may have plans to buy a digital asset treasury (DAT) in the future.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Dilution Is Not A Concern</h2>The primary concern shared on social media around the increase in authorized shares to 50 billion centers on dilution. However, Lee said it's a non-issue. “The only way somebody is diluted is if you issue shares below asset value,” he said. “Bitmine has never issued stocks below investment values. So it has never diluted a single share.”Lee explained that the management only benefits if the share price&nbsp;rises and issuing stock&nbsp;below the net asset value (NAV),&nbsp;which&nbsp;would hurt management financially.&nbsp;The other argument against the proposal has been that BitMine also has the option to wait until BMNR’s share price is higher. Lee called&nbsp;the&nbsp;idea of&nbsp;delaying&nbsp;authorization “a really bad take.” He stated that it could take months for the stock price to be higher and share authorization campaigns are also not instantaneous. In the interim, the cost of repeating a shareholder campaign would add up, and the company would miss growth opportunities due to the delay.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/cryptocurrency/arthur-hayes-goes-long-on-strategy-betting-on-bitcoin-rebound-adds-zcash/cmU19D0R47L">Arthur Hayes Goes Long On Strategy, Metaplanet Betting On Bitcoin Rebound – Continues To Add To Zcash Stack</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
