- Bitcoin as a Treasury Asset is still evolving, which is forced to choose companies between risk management and blindly pursue the success of MSTR
- Nowadays, 90 listed companies keep BTC on their balance.
Bitcoin [BTC] Like a treasury reserve activum, there is still a daring, unproven step, but more companies jump on board. The idea? BTC coverings against inflation and adds diversification to the balance sheet of the company.
MicroSstratey started this trend in 2020 and saw huge profits, but newer adopters such as Gamestop come to the list.
With 90 companies that already have BTC, is the big question – will this be the norm? Some analysts predict that by 2030 a quarter of the S&P 500 BTC exposure will have.
Market under pressure – Is Bitcoin the new game?
2025 is about macrotrends Shaping the markets and shares feel the pressure. The S&P 500 closed Q1 with $ 2 trillion in market value, inflation tapped up to 2.8% and a rate of 25% car industry shakes things.
Even Tesla could not escape the heat, with a weaker than expected Q1 performance. With all this uncertainty, it is no surprise of the growing role of Bitcoin in company balance magazines.
However, there is still a big reason for the Buzz – MicroStrategy (MSTR) bet on BTC as its primary Treasury activity in 2020, and the results have been enormous.
Since then, while the S&P 500 has been won by 64.81%and BTC 781.13%has risen, the valuation of MSTR has increased by 2,074.85%. With more than 500,000 BTC in its treasury, S&P 500 companies are now wondering – can they pick up the same game?

The stock of MSTR says it all. In Q4 2024, Bitcoin crossed $ 100k and sent MSstr for the first time beyond $ 500. But now? It drops 45% to $ 277.
With Bitcoin, swing on macro volatility and gold class record heights, is the big question-is to add BTC to the S&P 500 balance for a smart treasure chest movement or just a risky gamble?
BTC about business balance sheets – a smart move or a risky gamble?
Gamestop (GME) recently announced a $ 1.3 billion plan to hire BTC as an assets of a Treasury Reserve. However, the market was not convinced – GME shares fell by 20%after the news.
Why? As ambcrypto, the long -term potential of BTC is large, but the short -term volatility is a high risk. And when Bitcoin falls, companies that hold on take an even bigger hit.
In reality, Skeptics ask – If companies don’t keep gold like a Treasury assets, why would they hold BTC? Especially when gold remains the go-to-secure port in turbulent markets.
And the logic checks out – Gold just hit $ 3,100 while Bitcoin slipped to $ 77k. The figures speak for themselves.

Yet some with 90 S&P 500 companies that already have BTC see, as just the beginning. Tech managers predict that by 2030 25% of the S&P 500 companies will have BTC on their balance sheets.
But with the wild fluctuations of Bitcoin, it is a relocation with high bets that can either pay large or become a career risk.
