Cryptocurrency-backed ETFs experienced significant withdrawals as Amdax initiated a $23 million Bitcoin deposit plan
In a significant move, AMBTS B.V., a Bitcoin-focused firm founded by Amdax, has announced plans to accumulate 1% of Bitcoin's total supply, equivalent to approximately 210,000 BTC. This ambitious goal is part of AMBTS's long-term vision to establish a strong presence in the rapidly evolving Bitcoin market.
CEO Lucas Wensing believes the strong investor appetite for this initiative presents an opportunity for institutional investors to participate in the Bitcoin market. He stated, "The current interest in our Bitcoin-focused strategies provides a unique opportunity for institutional investors to capitalise on the growing potential of the Bitcoin market."
The adoption of such strategies by treasuries could potentially offset some of the bearish sentiment surrounding Bitcoin's current price downturn. This move is seen as a sign that Europe is actively working to attract new institutional investors into its crypto ecosystem.
AMBTS is aiming to close a financing round for Bitcoin-focused strategies in September, with a €30 million cap. This push comes at a time when institutional accumulation of Bitcoin is in the spotlight.
It's worth noting that BTC treasury firm Strategy already owns more than 3% of Bitcoin's maximum supply of 21 million, with a year-to-date yield of 25.4%.
AMBTS was initially financed with approximately 20 to 23.3 million euros/dollars in private funding rounds, enabling the purchase of around 400 BTC. The firm aims to gradually increase this capital to achieve its goal of controlling 1% of the total Bitcoin supply.
AMBTS also plans to list on the Euronext Amsterdam stock exchange, further solidifying its commitment to the Bitcoin market.
This news is sure to spark interest among both Bitcoin enthusiasts and institutional investors, as the race to accumulate Bitcoin continues.
