Strategy Inc. and Recent Developments in Bitcoin Stocks
Strategy Inc., formerly known as MicroStrategy, is often seen as a trailblazer when it comes to public companies investing in Bitcoin. Over the last five years, the company’s stock has soared by an impressive 1,893%. This remarkable growth stems from the general Bitcoin Bull Market and the firm’s strategic moves to acquire cryptocurrency through debt. However, despite this upward trajectory, current stock evaluations show a low score in the Benzinga Edge Stock Ranking, with negative price trends observed across short, medium, and long-term views.
Two Emerging Bitcoin Treasury Stocks
In just a matter of days, two lesser-known Bitcoin Treasury stocks have seen significant improvements in their value scores according to Benzinga’s Edge Rankings.

Benzinga’s Value Score assesses fundamental metrics of stocks, such as revenue and asset performance, and then ranks them against all other stocks in the list.
1. SEQUANS Communication SA
The French fabless semiconductor company, Sequans Communications SA (NYSE: SQNS), has experienced a remarkable jump in its Benzinga score, moving from 7.8 to 71.23 in just a week, a rise of 63.43 points. This boost likely follows the company’s recent decision to acquire an additional 683 Bitcoins, increasing its cryptocurrency holdings and pushing toward market reevaluation in July. Currently, this Bitcoin stash is valued at around $400 million. Combined with a low-cost return rate of 0.052, these factors might explain the surge in its score, although it faces negative price trends across various timelines.
2. Reitar LogTech Holdings Ltd.
Based in Hong Kong, Reitar LogTech Holdings Ltd. (NASDAQ:RITR) specializes in asset management for logistics entities. Its value score jumped from 10.9 to 44.88 in just a week, largely influenced by a significant drop in stock prices during that time. Earlier this year, the company released plans to purchase $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin for strategic purposes, as noted in a June filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Though both companies currently show high value scores in the Benzinga Edge Stock Ranking, they’re also grappling with unfavorable price trends in the short, medium, and long term.
