Balance Sheet

Company Market Cap

Equity market value of a single company.

What the term means

Company Market Cap is the real-time equity market value of a treasury company. It is computed as:

Current stock price × Basic Shares Outstanding

Displayed in USD, this headline figure updates every trading minute and is the universal yardstick for company size across dashboards, media, and institutional screens.

Why the term matters for Bitcoin treasury companies

Direct numerator of BTC Premium

Market Cap ÷ BTC NAV equals the BTC Premium. Every uptick or downtick in market cap instantly shifts the multiple, influencing how cheaply the company can raise capital accretively.

Capital-raising ceiling

Bigger market caps support larger ATM programs, tighter convert spreads, and cheaper debt. A $100 billion treasury can raise billions with minimal dilution; a $500 million name struggles to raise tens of millions without crushing the stock.

Liquidity and institutional relevance

Crossing $10–20 billion unlocks index inclusion, ETF flows, and prime-broker attention. Below $1–2 billion, treasuries trade like micro-caps with wide spreads and fragile premiums.

Gamma and options scale

Only large market caps sustain the $20–50 billion call open-interest books that fuel gamma squeezes. Smaller caps lack the options depth to turn BTC moves into outsized equity rallies.

Takeover moat

A $50 billion-plus market cap combined with sizable BTC holdings is almost untouchable; raiders would need sovereign-scale capital. Sub-$5 billion treasuries trading below 1× NAV regularly become activist or merger targets.

Narrative dominance

Milestones such as $10B, $50B, or $100B capture global headlines and attract incremental capital. The biggest market-cap treasuries set the narrative for the entire sector each cycle.

Bottom line

Company Market Cap is the scoreboard that summarizes stacking execution, premium strength, and capital-market power. Bigger caps compound advantages faster—bet on the treasuries that expand market cap while keeping BTC-per-share rising.
