Bitdeer stock extended losses after the miner sold all Bitcoin reserves

Highlights

  • The BTDR stock fell nearly 3% after the firm fully liquidated its Bitcoin holdings.
  • The miner sold all newly mined BTC and offloaded its remaining treasury amid falling prices.
  • Bitdeer is pursuing a $325M convertible notes sale to fund operations and pivot toward AI infrastructure.

The Bitdeer stock has continued declining in value despite its recent offering. This comes as the Bitcoin miner firm sold off its BTC holdings as the token drops further in price.

Bitdeer (BTDR) Stock Drops on Liquidated BTC Holdings

According to YahooFinance, the BTDR stock crashed by nearly 3% in overnight hours, continuing the decline seen at the close of the market on Friday. Data showed it had fallen even deeper through the weekend as traders priced in developments with its treasury.

The renewed Bitdeer stock decline came as the Bitcoin miner firm announced that it had liquidated its entire holdings in BTC. The miner revealed that it had mined 189.8 BTC and sold the same amount, while also liquidating the remaining 943.1 BTC reserves.

The company had approximately 2,000 BTC reserves at the end of 2025 and 1,530 at the end of January, only to reduce them to 943.1 BTC by February 13. In the update, the company had mined 183.4 BTC and sold 179.9 BTC.

This also comes as the economics of mining have become tougher. The difficulty level on the Bitcoin network rose by 14.7% in the last adjustment. The gross margin of Bitdeer also declined to 4.7% in Q4.

A positive for the Bitdeer stock is that the company did not clarify whether the zero-BTC position is a permanent change in the treasury strategy or a temporary need for cash due to its ongoing capital raises.

BTDR Looks Beyond Bitcoin, Seeks Funding for AI Push

The company had shared in a release on Friday that it is working an upsized $325 million private sale of convertible senior notes. The sale, which is expected to be completed on February 24, also includes an option to purchase an additional $50 million of notes to be purchased by the initial purchasers.

However, the news did not have much of an impact on the stock price of Bitdeer at the time. Notably, they are not the first treasury firm to make an AI pivot in strategy.

Last month, the XRP treasury Evernorth revealed a new partnership with an agentic finance team to manage its holdings using AI automation. The company aims to increase its reserve through the XRPL and artificial intelligence.

Bitdeer said in the report that it will set aside $138.2 million to repurchase its existing 5.25% convertible senior notes due in 2029. This means that the company has effectively extended its runway through debt restructuring.
