Bitcoin treasury companies function as strategic tools for integrating fiat debt markets into Bitcoin, creating a flywheel effect that accelerates Bitcoin accumulation per share. By leveraging fiat-denominated debt—which depreciates against Bitcoin’s long-term appreciation—organizations like MicroStrategy and Metaplanet capture institutional capital that cannot directly access Bitcoin due to regulatory or mandate constraints.
