Cointelegraph investigates how public companies are fueling Bitcoin’s rise with a high-stakes strategy that could supercharge the bull run or trigger the next crash.

Bitcoin is creating a new paradigm as an emerging financial asset; several investors are contemplating a shift to adopting the asset for higher returns. Historically, sovereign bonds like the US Treasurys, Japanese government bonds and German Bunds have been go-to assets for risk-averse investors. They are usually perceived to be minimal-risk assets offering steady returns. However, since the emergence of Bitcoin 13 years ago, the narrative of Bitcoin as an alternative to bonds has been gradually growing in the minds of investors. The interplay between the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet and the M1 and M2 money supply is also a significant consideration to help understand why some investors are shifting to Bitcoin (BTC).  Read more

If Bitcoin continues to tumble this season, it will mark its fourth consecutive summer in the red, while TradFi aims to extend its winning streak to three. Bitcoin is facing a potential fourth straight summer loss if it ends the 2025 stretch in the red, while the S&P 500 will log its third straight seasonal rally if its winning streak continues.  From 2020 to 2024, the S&P 500 logged eight positive July and August performances, while Bitcoin (BTC) had six. So, while their summer trends aren’t entirely decoupled, the divergence has become clear in June. Since 2020, Bitcoin has posted just one positive June, while the S&P 500 has seen only two negative ones over the same span.
