Public keys are weekly summary Decryption This tracks major crypto companies that are publicly traded.
This week: CoreWeave and Core Scientific Plan for it bitcoin ETFs are booming, with BTC and Dogecoin Miner accepting Solana, with Bitcoin’s biggest financial owner taking a week off from the purchase grind.
Core Fusion Dance
Bitcoin Miner Core Scientific and the newly launched AI Powerhouse CoreWeave have decided to run Fusion Dance on an astounding $9 billion all-stock deal.
Unfortunately, they haven’t changed the ticker to DBZ.
Bitcoin Miners trade Nasdaq under Corz Ticker, and CoreWeave, a newly published AI Powerhouse, will trade on the same exchange under CRWV ticker.
The transaction between the two companies appears to be one of the largest crypto-neighborhood M&A transactions to date. However, investors liked the look at the beginning of the week more than this week.

When the news was announced Monday, Corz rose to $15.71. However, the newly acquired Bitcoin Miner stock has since sunk at $12.51. That’s not the trajectory that is usually seen in miners in the same week. Also, CRWV, which peaked above $160 on Monday, has since sunk to $125.84.
Needham’s John Todaro was one of six analysts who downgraded Core Scientific this week. Macquarie analysts Paul Gooding and Marni Reisagut reduced the Colts rating from outperform to neutral, while maintaining a $15 price target.
It’s part of investors already becoming the wind of contracts and starting pricing before it was announced, they wrote.
“Ahead of this, both tickers were pricing for transactions that would come true after media coverage suggested a high possibility,” they wrote in a note they shared. Decryption. The analyst added that it is unlikely that this is not unbinding, not unbinding, but has already been approved by core science CEO Adam Sullivan, so a better bid is unlikely to be achieved.
Billy in Billie in Bitcoin ETF
Bitcoin Spot ETFS cleared a net inflow worth $1.17 billion on Thursday, marking the second-largest day since they were launched.
This is an institutional momentum that has so many analysts who are willing to point out the decline in Bitcoin volatility. And there’s no small surprise that BlackRock’s Ishares Bitcoin Trust, or IBIT, accounted for almost half of the cash inflows into its funds ($448.5 million to be precise).
IBIT has yet to give up the Crown as the fastest growing ETF in the industry’s 32-year history. The fund is now surpassing its managed $80 billion assets, about a month after exceeding $70 billion.
Turn towards Sol
In Bitmining, stocks won a big lift after Bitcoin and Dogcoin Miner revealed a $300 million Solana Treasury pivot.
BIT Mining, which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the BTCM ticker, would have had an otherwise mild week. However, when Solana Pivot was announced on Thursday, the shares opened at $7.01 after closing at $2.42 on Wednesday.
What went up hasn’t crashed back to Earth, but BTCM stocks have lost some of their lightness. At the time of this writing, the stock has changed hands at $4.34 after winning 83% over the last five days, but loses 29% compared to yesterday’s outstanding performance.
Even if the announcement changed heads from the Solana crowd, that alone wasn’t enough for HC Wainwright, the only stock research firm targeting the company, to issue new guidance. The company has maintained its “neutral” rating in BTCM since it began compensation in 2022.
Goodbye Week Strategy
Yes, even buying the Strategy Bitcoin button will take a break for a while. At least last week I skipped my weekly BTC purchases for the first time in three months.
The Bitcoin giant strategy has swelled the BTC Treasury to a $70 billion valuation thanks to playing Footsea at $120K later this week.
Instead of adding more world-first cryptocurrency to its financial resources, the strategy rolled out STRD’s new $4.2 billion preferred stock offering.
Strategy Founder and Chairman Michael Saylor previously referred to STRD Preferred Stock as “the fourth gear.”
By the end of June, the strategy concluded its $7 billion in Bitcoin purchases in the second quarter. The company began the year at 446,400 BTC, increasing the Ministry of Finance to 597,325 BTC at the time of this writing.
But hey, the SAT count is enough. Saylor says, “Just come in.”
