What to know:

  • B. Riley lowered mNAV, accumulation assumptions and price targets across treasury firms as valuations compress faster than underlying tokens.
  • The bank still sees arbitrage opportunities in companies trading below mNAV and expects buybacks, preferred deals and advanced ether restaking to support multiples.
  • It remains most constructive on BitMine and SharpLink, while flagging value setups in FG Nexus, Sequans and Kindly MD.

B. Riley cut its outlook for digital-asset treasury companies (Datcos) after a sell-off that outpaced the declines in bitcoin BTC$91,825.07, ether ETH$3,033.72 and solana SOL$142.00 themselves.

The companies' valuations have compressed meaningfully since October, dragged down by macro pressures that have slowed token accumulation, the report said. Bitcoin-focused treasury companies are down roughly 37%, ETH treasuries 39% and SOL treasuries 59%, compared with drops of 16%, 22% and 28% in the underlying tokens.

Analysts Fedor Shabalin and Nick Giles cut their mNAV and accumulation assumptions through 2026 and also lower share price targets across their coverage.

BitMine's (BMNR) price target was slashed to $47 from $90 on reduced mNAV assumptions, but kept at buy. The analysts noted that the company continues to accumulate ether aggressively. The stock was 4.6% higher in pre-market trading, around $30.50.

The analysts cut their FG Nexus (FGNX) target to $5 from $8 and lowered both mNAV and accumulation forecasts following slower-than-expected third-quarter ether buildup and the firm’s current 0.7x mNAV, which limits accretive at-the-money (ATM) usage. The stock was kept at buy. The shares climbed 3.5% to $2.69 in early trading.

Kindly MD’s (NAKA) target was halved to $1 with its buy rating maintained. The report cited the company's roughly 0.7x BTC NAV valuation as still compelling. The stock was recently 2.5% higher at $0.55.

Sequans’ (SQNS) price target was trimmed to $11 from $13, and kept at buy. The analysts viewed the discount-to-NAV setup as attractive. The shares jumped 5% in pre-market trading Thursday to $5.90.

The bank reiterated its buy rating and $19 price target for SharpLink Gaming (SBET), noting previously updated estimates and highlighting management’s push into more advanced ETH yield strategies. SBET stock was 3.6% higher, at $10.22.

Despite recent weakness in these stocks, the analysts said the market is still undervaluing datcos trading below mNAV and expects companies to lean harder into return on equity (ROE)-lifting tactics like buybacks, preferred deals and more advanced ether restaking.

A rebound, the bank noted, depends on steadier crypto markets and credible follow-through on yield strategies. BitMine and SharpLink remain B. Riley’s highest-conviction ETH treasury names, showing the most resilience in a battered sector.

DOGE ETF Hype Fades as Whales Sell and Traders Await Decline

DOGE ETF Hype Fades as Whales Sell and Traders Await Decline

The post DOGE ETF Hype Fades as Whales Sell and Traders Await Decline appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Leading meme coin Dogecoin (DOGE) has struggled to gain momentum despite excitement surrounding the anticipated launch of a US-listed Dogecoin ETF this week. On-chain data reveals a decline in whale participation and a general uptick in coin selloffs across exchanges, hinting at the possibility of a deeper price pullback in the coming days. Sponsored Sponsored DOGE Faces Decline as Whales Hold Back, Traders Sell The market is anticipating the launch of Rex-Osprey’s Dogecoin ETF (DOJE) tomorrow, which is expected to give traditional investors direct exposure to Dogecoin’s price movements.  However, DOGE’s price performance has remained muted ahead of the milestone, signaling a lack of enthusiasm from traders. According to on-chain analytics platform Nansen, whale accumulation has slowed notably over the past week. Large investors, with wallets containing DOGE coins worth more than $1 million, appear unconvinced by the ETF narrative and have reduced their holdings by over 4% in the past week.  For token TA and market updates: Want more token insights like this?

This reduced DOGE demand from significant players can lead to decreased buying pressure, potentially resulting in price stagnation or declines in the near term. Sponsored Sponsored Furthermore, DOGE’s exchange reserve has risen steadily in the past week, suggesting that more traders are transferring DOGE to exchanges with the intent to sell.
