DAT-a crunch: Momentum builds around ETH treasury companies
The rise of crypto treasury companies, particularly those accumulating Ethereum (ETH), is gaining attention. These companies, referred to as digital asset treasuries (DATs), have significantly increased their holdings, with BitMine Immersion becoming a leader by amassing a corporate treasury of $4.96 billion in ETH. Companies in this sector now hold nearly 2% of all ETH, up from 0.5% a month ago. While the market cap of ETH treasury companies is significantly lower than that of those focused on Bitcoin (BTC), the recent surge in trading volume indicates emerging interest from new entrants in the market. Analysts suggest that other types of firms may soon adopt similar strategies, and while skepticism exists regarding the longevity of these TREASURY models, they are conceptually different from past market bubbles. Overall, the development of ETH and altcoin-focused treasury companies shows potential for growth in this emerging sector.
