The 2025 Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) boom is crashing as stocks plummet 80-95%. Over 200 public companies adopted DAT strategies, but now face huge losses. The bubble’s burst reflects a rapid unwinding in the crypto market. The collapse began in October, signaling the end of a once-promising trend.

The DAT idea originated in 2020 with MicroStrategy buying Bitcoin, inspiring many firms to follow suit. By early 2025, over 100 companies collectively held one million BTC. The trend exploded when 200 companies announced DAT plans, raising $15 billion. But the frenzy quickly turned sour as stock prices tanked.

The market downturn hit DAT firms hard, with high-beta stocks experiencing double the losses. The collapse triggered a downward spiral: falling crypto values lead to stock price drops, demands for collateral, and forced crypto sales. Many firms faced insolvency risks or delisting, with some already unraveling.

Top DAT players like Nakamoto Holdings and Metaplanet have suffered massive losses. Even giants like Strategy and BitMine Immersion are down significantly. Dozens more face financial peril as crypto prices continue to slide. The sector is viewed as a high-risk gamble that’s crumbling rapidly.

The future of DAT remains uncertain. Will it become a lasting corporate model or another failed crypto trend? Only time will tell if the bubble burst of 2025 marks the end or a temporary setback in the volatile world of corporate crypto investments.
