Sequans Communications Commits $384M to Bitcoin Treasury

In the latest development within the Bitcoin treasury trend, Sequans Communications has invested a massive $384 million in BTC. This indicates the platform’s strategic expansion beyond its semiconductor cellular IoT roots. In an X post earlier today, the company wrote, “Big news from Sequans! We’ve launched our Bitcoin Treasury Initiative—a bold step that complements our leadership in cellular IoT.”

Notably, the company plans to raise approximately $384 million through private placements, consisting of $195 million in equity securities and $189 million in convertible secured debentures. To execute this initiative, the firm plans to collaborate with Swan Bitcoin, a renowned expert in bitcoin treasury management. Sequans CEO Georges Karam noted,

“Our bitcoin treasury strategy reflects our strong conviction in bitcoin as a premier asset and a compelling long-term investment. We believe bitcoin’s unique characteristics will enhance our financial resilience and deliver significant value to our shareholders.”

Despite its diversification into BTC, the company will stay focused on its IoT semiconductor operations, added Karam. He cited, “We continue to support our customers with a robust 4G and 5G product roadmap, delivering innovative solutions to meet evolving IoT application needs and ensuring a seamless transition from 4G to 5G.”

Another major platform that entered the Bitcoin Treasury trend is Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap Financial, which announced a $1 billion merger and raised $750 million.

Bitcoin Treasury Season Takes Center Stage

As BTC hovers above the crucial $100k zone, prominent industry players are increasingly investing in Bitcoin. According to BitcoinTreasuries.net data, the number of public companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets has nearly doubled, growing from 124 to at least 240 firms. It accounts for about 3.96% of the total BTC supply.

Recently, Michael Saylor’s Strategy, one of the largest public holders of Bitcoin, further strengthened its BTC portfolio. The firm added 245 BTC for $26 million to its total holdings. Now the firm holds a total of 592,345 BTC. Asia’s Metaplanet has also bought 1,111 Bitcoins, worth $118.2 million, bringing its total Bitcoin holdings to 11,111 BTC.

Commenting on this growing trend, Blockstream CEO Adam Back posited that the Bitcoin treasury trend has become the new altcoin season for cryptocurrency speculators. He noted, “Time to dump ALTs into BTC or BTC treasuries.”

Previously, Back predicted that institutional and government adoption could unlock a $200 trillion market opportunity for BTC. He believes Bitcoin treasury firms are positioning themselves ahead of potential hyperbitcoinization, where Bitcoin’s adoption as a global currency could surpass traditional fiat currencies due to its economic advantages.
