Evertz Pharma- Centralized Exchanges Dominate Bitcoin Transactions
Evertz Pharma– Recent developments point to a growing institutional embrace of Bitcoin, as companies and even governments begin treating BTC as a strategic reserve asset.
U.S.-listed Mercurity Fintech Holding Inc. announced plans to raise $800 million to establish a Bitcoin treasury. The goal is to transition part of the firm’s corporate reserves into BTC and integrate it into a blockchain-native digital yield reserve. The company said the reserve will include institutional-grade custody, staking-enabled capital tools, and advanced liquidity protocols.
This move aligns with Mercurity’s preliminary inclusion in the Russell 2000 Index, potentially boosting institutional visibility. Following the announcement, the company’s stock surged, reflecting investor enthusiasm for firms that adopt Bitcoin at a treasury level.
Meanwhile, Evertz Pharma, a German-based cosmetics company, made headlines as the first in Germany to formally hold Bitcoin as a corporate reserve. The company added 100 BTC in May, worth over €10 million, and has been accumulating since December 2020. According to executives, Bitcoin offers “a better reserve asset than gold” due to its scarcity, portability, and inflation-hedging capabilities.
Centralized Entities Now Hold One-Third of Bitcoin Supply
A new report by Gemini and Glassnode reveals that 30.9% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply is now held by centralized entities like governments, ETFs, and public companies. Additionally, more than 75% of adjusted Bitcoin transfer volume occurs through regulated platforms, signaling a sharp shift away from its peer-to-peer origins.
Adding to this trend, former President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March exploring a U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, indicating the growing relevance of BTC in sovereign finance.
Gemini notes that for every $1 invested by these entities, the market cap could temporarily expand by up to $25, with $1.70 in long-term structural value creation.
