Aug 11   READ IN APP   Good to see you this Tuesday. Corporate crypto treasuries are showing that access to large token holdings is not the same as having flexible, dependable liquidity. Strategy sold another 1,690 BTC while building a record $4.65 billion cash reserve to finish closing STRC’s final gap, underscoring how treasury managers are prioritizing funding certainty over pure coin exposure. That pressure is surfacing elsewhere: SharpLink’s $1.7 billion Ethereum treasury could take about 90 days to fully convert to cash or staking, highlighting timing risk even at scale. Meanwhile, Bitcoin futures carry trades are quietly outperforming Treasuries, with the August contract yielding an annualized 7.89% basis above the two-year Treasury yield of 4.19% on Aug. 7. This spread has helped drive a $853.54 million weekly inflow into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, signaling renewed arbitrage-driven demand from Wall Street. The global crypto market cap is $2.18 trillion, with a 24-hour volume of $54.48 billion. The price of Bitcoin is $63,714.45, and BTC market dominance is 58.7%. The price of Ethereum is $1,870.82, and ETH market dominance is 10.4%. The best-performing sector is Terra, which gained 6%.
