Odaily Planet Daily reports that shareholders of Bitcoin Treasury have approved a large-scale financing plan, allowing the company to raise up to $5.76 billion through new share issuance and up to $115.2 billion through credit facilities to further increase its Bitcoin holdings. This plan means Capital B will simultaneously rely on equity financing and debt instruments to expand its exposure to crypto assets, potentially increasing the correlation between its capital structure and BTC prices. Based on current prices, this financing amount could theoretically support the purchase of over 1.87 million BTC, indicating a potential further strengthening of its "Bitcoin Treasury" asset allocation strategy.
