Corporate Bitcoin purchases could accelerate toward the end of 2026 and into 2027 if the cryptocurrency rallies, but investors are likely to be more selective about which treasury companies they finance, according to analysts. Speaking to Cointelegraph, Bitwise head of research Ryan Rasmussen said there was a broad slowdown in Bitcoin treasury buying in Q3. Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings increased by a net 1,666 BTC in Q3, down from 83,901 BTC in Q2, according to company filings. Other public companies added a net 5,617 BTC, compared with 45,725 BTC in the previous quarter, according to figures supplied by Rasmussen. Rasmussen said he expects a re-acceleration of corporate Bitcoin purchases to begin as early as this year. Bitfinex head of derivatives Jag Kooner said renewed buying could follow if treasury companies regain premiums to the value of their Bitcoin holdings, allowing them to issue shares and acquire more Bitcoin without diluting existing shareholders’ Bitcoin exposure per share. The model became popular during the 2025 treasury boom, when companies could raise capital by issuing shares at a premium to the value of their Bitcoin holdings.

What do PE fund managers see in GFL?

Open this photo in gallery:In Patrick Dovigi, PE funds see a proven talent, someone who has made money in the past under the constraints imposed by the extra debt of a leveraged buyout. Sammy Kogan/The Canadian PressPublic-market investors don’t seem to get Patrick Dovigi. The founder and chief executive officer of GFL Environmental Inc. GFL-T is listening to offers from private-equity suitors after last summer’s sharp sell-off in shares of the country’s largest waste-disposal company. GFL’s stock tanked after announcing plans to buy Calgary-based Secure Waste Infrastructure Corp. SES-T for $5.4-billion in cash and its own shares. Mr. Dovigi, already a candidate for the business hall of fame at age 47, snapped up Secure to become the oil patch’s dominant player in processing hazardous waste, chemicals and scrap metal. GFL closed the acquisition earlier this month. For investors who bought into GFL as an easy-to-understand garbage collector, the owner of the bright green trucks that pick up their trash, the Secure purchase added complexity and perceived cyclicality to the stock story.
