Basel Medical Group Ltd has entered exclusive negotiations to acquire US$1 billion worth of Bitcoin in a strategic move to strengthen its balance sheet and diversify its treasury reserves. The announcement, made on May 16, marks a significant shift for the Singapore-based healthcare company, as it looks to blend digital asset investment with aggressive growth in Asia’s medical services sector. The company is in advanced talks with a consortium of institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals to complete the acquisition via a share-swap deal. If finalized, this would be among the largest crypto acquisitions by a publicly listed healthcare firm in the Asia-Pacific region.

Eric Trump talks to World Liberty Financial’s Zach Witkoff and Tron creator Justin Sun about how the institutional banks will be left ‘in the dust’ if they fail to embrace crypto. On May 1 during Token2049’s fireside chat session, Eric Trump opened up about how he and his family were “canceled” by the modern financial system, which led him to discover the world of cryptocurrency. “Modern finance is absolutely broken. And so when the banks came after our family, I’ll never forget it, we became the most canceled people in the world all because we’re associated with politics in the United States,” said Trump on the Token2049 stage. “And honestly, I really do believe that cryptocurrency, and certainly our venture into cryptocurrency, is going to make the big banks regret that,” he continued. He criticized how financial institutions like banks are still moving at a relatively slower pace compared to crypto firms. Trump used the process of applying for a loan at a bank as an example, as it usually took 90 to 120 days for it to be processed. Meanwhile, blockchain technology makes it possible for people to move large sums of money while making it public and accessible for all to track. “They’re pushing paper forms out there, things that could be done on blockchain instantaneously, things that could be done cheaper, faster, and more efficiently,” said Trump.

However, with the blockchain, people can regain a sense of transparency that modern banks lack. “Nobody knows what’s going on in the bank, they just move like $5 million around and the customer don’t know even what happened. But on blockchain, this kind of thing will never happen again because everything will be transparent on the blockchain,” said Sun. World Liberty Financial co-founder Zach Witkoff stated that the reason why the project was founded in the first place was because of the “gaps in the traditional financial system.” Therefore, the project seeks to democratize access to the financial system, particularly through merging it with decentralized finance. “We’ll wake up in a world in four or five years, where the two things will kind of just merge. I think that you’ll see DeFi and traditional finance just sort of come together in a way that they can’t ever really be untwined again,” said Witkoff.

If they refuse, he continued, they may risk getting left behind. “I think time will tell, you know, which choice they make, but hopefully they’re on the right side of history,” said Witkoff. Eric Trump believes it will be difficult for major financial institutions to switch gears and embrace crypto, mostly due to how their entire business model is built on the old-fashioned mechanisms that get erased by crypto. “If the banks don’t embrace this, if they don’t buy into it, if they don’t embrace crypto right now, they’re just going to be extinct because you’re actually eliminating the function,” said Trump. In terms of technological advancement, he observed that crypto is advancing by at least “100 times as fast as these big banks.” Not only that, it has also become a lot more accessible for unbanked populations. “What crypto really does is bring an even playing field to the globe. If you don’t have access to Jamie Dimon, if you don’t have access to the biggest financial institutions, congratulations you have your phone,” said Trump.

Semler Scientific posted a 22.2% year-to-date Bitcoin yield in the first quarter of this year, outperforming major corporate BTC holders like Strategy and Riot Platforms. In its Q1 2025 earnings report released May 13, Semler Scientific, a publicly traded medical device firm that holds BTC on its balance sheet, reported a 22.2% Bitcoin (BTC) yield year-to-date, driven by realized and unrealized gains on its Bitcoin treasury strategy. In terms of dollar gains, Semler saw a $41.6 million BTC gain in Q1, which increased to $52 million by May 12. The company reported purchasing 894 BTC during Q1 at a total cost of $90.7 million, bringing its total Bitcoin holdings to 3,192 BTC as of March 31, with a fair value of $263.5 million. However, this value reflected a cumulative decrease of $16.9 million in fair value. Subsequently, through May 12, Semler acquired an additional 616 BTC for $59.6 million, increasing its total holdings to 3,808 BTC, which now holds a fair value of $387.9 million and a total cost basis of $340 million. Beyond Bitcoin, the company posted $8.8 million in Q1 revenue, down 44% year-over-year. Operating expenses surged to $39.9 million, including a $29.8 million contingent liability tied to a potential DOJ settlement. The result was a net loss of $64.7 million, or $6.74 per share, compared to net income of $6.1 million a year ago.

That puts it at 58% of its revised full-year BTC dollar gain target of $15 billion. Despite the strong crypto performance, fair value accounting rules drove a GAAP net loss of over $4.2 billion in Q1. Riot Platforms, which held 19,223 BTC as of March 31, reported a year-to-date BTC yield of 7.7%. Despite producing 1,530 BTC in the first quarter, Riot’s profitability was pressured by a sharp increase in average Bitcoin mining cost to $43,808 per BTC, driven by the April 2024 halving and increased global hash rate competition. MARA, the second largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, has not disclosed an explicit Bitcoin yield percentage for the first quarter of this year, but its substantial increase in holdings—from 17,320 BTC in Q1 2024 to 47,531 BTC in Q1 2025, a 174% year-over-year jump—suggests aggressive accumulation and operational scale-up.

披露：此处表达的观点和意见仅属于作者，并不代表 crypto.news 编辑部的观点和意见。 过去十年，代币化信贷市场发展至新高。该行业将贷款、债券或其他债务工具等传统信贷产品转换为区块链上的数字代币，帮助更多参与者实现了投资世界的民主化，每个发行的代币都代表着基础信贷资产的一小部分。这种细分化使得代币可以在去中心化平台上轻松交易、转移和管理。 您可能还喜欢：代币化证券正在重新定义合规性 | 观点 迄今为止，包括世界银行和卢加诺市在内的领先机构已发行了100亿美元的代币化债券。该市场日益普及，源于其带来的显著优势——增强的流动性、透明度和可及性。投资者现在可以买卖部分贷款或债券，使这些传统上流动性较差的资产更加灵活，交易性更强。区块链透明、不可篡改的账本确保所有交易安全可靠，并可实时验证，从而减少欺诈并提升信任度。此外，代币化信贷产品降低了准入门槛，从而吸引更广泛的投资者，即使是小规模参与者也能投资曾经仅限于大型机构参与者的资产。随着越来越多的金融机构和平台采用代币化，预计该市场将进一步扩张，从而彻底改变信贷产品的发行、交易和管理方式。 然而，尽管取得了这样的进步，代币化信贷市场的增长仍然受到一个关键问题的制约：投资回报率。与传统贷款市场相比，去中心化金融贷款目前的收益率较低，尤其是在当前的高利率环境下。 这个问题可以通过为跨境支付提供资金来解决，因为这是扩大代币化信贷市场和释放更高收益的理想用例，提供稳定的现金流，并与区块链的速度和成本效益自然契合。 核心挑战：低收益率和波动性 与数万亿美元的全球债券市场规模相比，代币化信贷市场的总配置规模仍然相对较小。有限的配置主要源于流动性挑战、投资者对收益率的犹豫以及监管的不确定性。 就回报而言，代币化信贷市场目前为100亿美元的代币化信贷资产提供约9.65%的平均收益率。虽然与传统债券收益率相比，这似乎颇具吸引力，但从2018年到2023年，增长强劲的私募信贷市场的平均收益率仅为12%，这导致许多投资者仍然认为DeFi具有波动性和不确定性。因此，为了进一步释放增长潜力，该行业必须解决收益率相关问题，并增强投资者对这一新兴资产类别的信心。 机构投资者不仅要求高收益，还要求稳定性和可预测性。在传统信贷市场中，低波动性和可靠的收入来源是投资流动的关键驱动力，而DeFi领域仍被视为新兴且波动性较大。DeFi生态系统需要证明其能够为机构投资者和散户投资者创造具有吸引力的、经风险调整后的回报。这意味着需要提升平台的稳健性，并扩大可用资产类别的范围，例如扩展到支付领域。 提高产量以促进增长 为了推动更广泛的采用并吸引更多资本进入代币化信贷市场，需要采取几种策略来提高收益率的吸引力： 增强流动性。限制收益率吸引力的关键因素之一是流动性，因为代币化资产必须拥有更深层次的二级市场，才能让投资者轻松退出头寸，而不会对价格产生显著影响。这可以通过扩大提供代币化债务资产交易的平台数量来实现，而增加机构参与度则有助于创造必要的流动性，从而获得更稳定的回报。 拓宽资产类别。The tokenized credit market is currently focused on a narrow range of assets, such as mortgages and corporate bonds. However, to make yields more appealing, the market needs to diversify into other asset classes. Tokenizing revenue-generating assets like payments, real estate, and infrastructure projects could provide higher yields and open up new opportunities for investors who are seeking different risk-return profiles. Leverage stable asset classes.Integrating more stable, low-risk asset classes into the DeFi ecosystem could help balance the risk-reward equation. For example, tokenized government bonds or investment-grade corporate debt could offer lower but more stable yields, which may be attractive to institutional investors or pension funds looking for secure, long-term returns. 寻找用于标记化的新资产类别 为了确保代币化信贷市场的持续增长，必须探索新的资产类别。当前的市场格局主要集中于固定收益工具，但在房地产、知识产权、特许权使用费，甚至碳信用额等领域也存在尚未开发的机会。 然而，支付行业为代币化信贷市场的扩张提供了最佳的资产类别。支付行业在全球所有商业领域中扮演着重要的角色，处理着极高的交易量，且回报基本稳定。跨境支付尤其令人关注；每家服务提供商必须在其运营所在的每个司法管辖区保持充足的流动性，以提供快速且低成本的交易，这对有抱负的创始人和正在扩张的支付公司来说是一个沉重的负担。 这种负担造成了巨大的效率低下，并锁定了原本可以投资或以其他更高效的方式利用的资本。代币化信贷市场为这一问题提供了一个有效的解决方案，它向跨境支付公司提供贷款，使其能够在更多司法管辖区运营预存资金账户，从而进入传统贷款机构因高风险和过时的尽职调查流程而尚未开发的市场。代币化信贷市场利用链上抵押品进行贷款，并提供高度灵活的信贷额度，可以进入传统私人借贷市场无法触及的领域，获得重要的交易量和更高的收益。 代币化信贷市场的未来 As the tokenised credit market continues to evolve, funding payments companies stand out as an important asset class that can generate higher yields and attract more capital, enabling the tokenised credit market to take the next step in its growth.  为了确保更广泛的 DeFi 生态系统蓬勃发展，该行业必须专注于增强流动性、稳定收益率和多元化发展新的资产类别，无论是支付行业还是其他对灵活的链上流动性有很高需求的行业。 阅读更多：高效投资组合的秘诀是什么？自动化 | 观点 穆卢库·萨诺 穆卢库·萨诺is an experienced investor and operator, with private equity and investment banking in his arsenal.
