Strive CIO: If Bitcoin prices remain sluggish, treasury companies may face pressure for consolidation and restructuring
According to The Block, Ben Werkman, Chief Investment Officer of the Bitcoin treasury company Strive, stated at the BTC Prague event that if Bitcoin prices continue to remain low, treasury companies relying on convertible bond financing will face greater pressure, being forced to sell Bitcoin to maintain operations or repay debts, making industry consolidation inevitable. Currently, Bitcoin has dropped about 50% from its historical high of approximately $126,000 last October.
Werkman pointed out that Strive previously chose to rely solely on equity financing and not issue convertible bonds, allowing it to continue operations during the bear market, citing the acquisition of Semler Scientific as a case of industry consolidation. He also mentioned that companies like Nakamoto are actively deleveraging to regain operational flexibility.
