🔥THE ULTIMATE WAY TO VALUE BITCOIN TREASURY COMPANIES🔥

This is the P/BYD RATIO developed by Bitcoin Wizard Jesse Myers (@Croesus_BTC).

Goodbye P/E ratios and other archaic valuation methods!

If you've still value Bitcoin treasury companies by price-to-earnings, congratulations:

You've been timing the apocalypse with a sundial.

🧵Here's how to find the DEALS in the BTC treasury game👇Image
P/BYD = Price to Bitcoin Yield Delivered

Think of it like P/E for Bitcoin-native equity...

But instead of measuring how long it takes to earn your dollars back via profits, it tells you:

How long until the Bitcoin I overpaid for is delivered back to me?
Here’s the formula:

y = log(mNAV) / n*log(1+BYD)

Where:

y = years to shareholder Bitcoin parity

mNAV = Market cap / NAV (Bitcoin per share)

BYD = Bitcoin Yield Delivered via dilution

n = # of issuance periods per year
Let’s break this down with an example:

Say a company has:

mNAV = 2.0 → stock trades at 2× its BTC value per share

BYD = 20% (they increase treasury 20% via issuance this quarter)

n = 1 (one issuance per year)

y = log(2) / log(1.2) = .77 years

So despite a 2× premium, you recover the “excess BTC” in under 9 months.
This is the entire breakthrough.

💥 Premiums aren’t bad if payback is fast.
💥 Dilution isn’t evil if it increases BTC per share.
💥 Compounding yield offsets overvaluation.

The market's still using fiat logic to value Bitcoin time machines.
Let’s talk dynamics:

mNAV ↑ → Longer payback time (log-linear)

BYD ↑ → Shorter payback time (exponential)

n ↑ → More compounding periods = slight edge

So what really matters?

Bitcoin Yield Delivered.

It’s the throttle. Everything else is just framing.
Let’s break down three real Bitcoin treasury companies as of mid-2025 using the P/BYD framework:

1. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy):

mNAV: 1.95 (market cap is 1.95× its net BTC value)
BYD: 19.7% Bitcoin yield delivered over the first half of 2025
P/BYD: 1.86 years

→ It takes just under 2 years for shareholders to recover the BTC premium they overpaid, assuming yield remains constant.

2. Metaplanet (3350.T):

mNAV: 3.51
BYD: 129.4% Bitcoin yield delivered in Q2 alone
P/BYD: 0.38 years

→ That’s around 4.5 months to full BTC payback, even with a premium over 3.5× NAV.

Why? Explosive BTC yield from rapid dilution.

3. Smarter Web Company:

mNAV: 5.58
BYD: 419% over the past 30-day period
P/BYD: 0.09 years

→ Less than 5 weeks to recover the entire BTC premium. It’s almost unreal, but the sustainability of such yield is the question.

The lesson?

A high NAV premium isn’t bad if the BTC yield is compounding aggressively.

And a low premium means nothing if the company isn’t delivering more Bitcoin to the balance sheet.

This is how you separate signal from noise in the Bitcoin equity markets.
How can you use P/BYD?

🔹 Rank companies by capital efficiency
🔹 Screen for fast payback with acceptable premium
🔹 Build a smart-beta portfolio of “BTC payback engines”
🔹 Avoid stocks trading at high premiums without yield

It’s alpha in plain sight.
Now combine it with PCV (Premium Compression Velocity):

Time-Adjusted PCV = PCV / P/BYD

This shows how fast the market is compressing premium relative to the payback time.

High PCV, low P/BYD = generational stacking vehicle.
Build a forward P/BYD curve from forecasted yield.

Flat → consistent compounding
Steep → likely slowdown
Inverted → sleeper about to re-rate violently

You're not just buying BTC exposure anymore.

You're buying time-value recovery speed.
⚠️ Limitations:

P/BYD doesn’t account for BTC price risk

Doesn’t model jurisdictional friction (SEC vs Japan ≠ equal)

Yield fatigue is real. Early cycles often outperform later ones.

Use it with PCV and rolling BYD averages.
🚨 Final takeaway:

P/BYD turns Bitcoin equity dilution into a quantified payback clock.

The market is still using P/E for time-based assets.

You now have the key to value Bitcoin-native companies like a capital assassin.

Ignore this at your own fiat peril.

🚨BREAKING: FEDERAL RESERVE SAYS BANKS CAN NOW CUSTODY BITCOIN🚨

This is arguably the most bullish development in the history of Bitcoin.

🧵You are NOT prepared for what's coming👇Image
BANKS HAVE LOST MONETARY SOVEREIGNTY.

If the Fed has to authorize JPMorgan to hold Bitcoin, it means Bitcoin has already won.

You don’t allow your enemy's weapon in your vault unless you’re already under siege.
THE CUSTODIAN TRAP IS A LAST-DITCH LURE.

Banks are now saying, “Don’t self-custody. We’ll keep it safe for you.”

Translation: "Let us rewrap your sovereign money in paper IOUs and trap you back in the fiat matrix."

It’s like handing your sword to the enemy and asking them to “sharpen it.”

🧵Fiat Didn’t Make You Poor. It Made You STUPID.

Inflation is a cognitive cancer draining 13 IQ points worth of brain-bandwidth, while Bitcoin REWIRES YOU for LONG-TERM GENIUS.

Let's unpack the FACTS tha proves this REALITY👇Image
Inflation = hidden tax on attention.

When every grocery trip costs more than last week, your prefrontal cortex spends its RAM on survival math instead of creativity.

Chronic financial stress literally reduces working memory and problem-solving capacity.
High inflation jacks up time-preference.

Cash behaves like a melting ice cube, so the “rational” move is YOLO consumption: fast fashion, 8-second TikToks, buy-now-pay-later everything.

A culture of disposable goods is just monetary debasement expressed in plastic.

🔥WHY TWENTY-ONE CAPITAL WILL HAVE MORE POWER THAN WORLD GOVERNMENTS🔥

Bitcoin will enable Jack Mallers to have more power than almost ANYONE on EARTH.

The implications of Twenty-One are STAGGERING:

🧵This will change the way you see the future of our world👇Image
In the twilight of fiat dominance, where central banks print illusions and nations cling to outdated borders, a new entity arises: Twenty One Capital.

This is the blueprint for a non-state sovereign, fortified by Tether's shadow dollar empire, SoftBank's trillion-dollar arsenal, and Cantor Fitzgerald's Wall Street stronghold.

Together, they forge the Second Sovereign – second only to Strategy's Bitcoin juggernaut.

This alliance doesn't seek votes or treaties; it commands liquidity, scarcity, and code, rendering governments obsolete in the monetary arena.

Prepare for a dissection of how this quadriga will eclipse state power through relentless Bitcoin accumulation and global financial reconfiguration.
The Fiat Fracture: Setting the Stage for Non-State Power

Nation-states built their empires on monopolies over money issuance, trade routes, and coercion.

But as endless quantitative easing erodes trust, sanctions fracture alliances, and CBDCs threaten privacy, capital seeks neutral ground.

Bitcoin emerges as the ultimate refuge: 21 million units, immutable, borderless.

Strategy pioneered the corporate Bitcoin treasury, amassing over 597k BTC by mid-2025, valued at trillions in fiat terms.

Twenty One Capital is also elevating sovereign scale, launching in April 2025 with a mandate to hoard BTC recursively.

By July 2025, they've filed for Nasdaq listing as $XXI, backed by $685 million raised, positioning as a public vehicle for Bitcoin exposure without direct ownership hassles.

🧵SWAN’S $384 MILLION BITCOIN SUPERWEAPON

The most powerful new Bitcoin capital machine is already live.

Nobody’s paying attention.

But you will, after this thread.👇Image
In July 2025, a quiet semiconductor company partnered with Swan Bitcoin.

No giant headlines. No CNBC special.

But under the surface, they executed a move so precise it could change the corporate treasury game forever.

It’s called Sequans.

It’s now armed with $384 million in Bitcoin-focused firepower.
Sequans is not a meme stock.

It’s a fabless 5G chipset firm with Qualcomm licensing, growing revenue, and no factories.

It prints cash from signal architecture.

But now?

It’s evolving into something new:

A Bitcoin-native SUPERCOMPANY.

🔥BITCOIN'S FINAL ATTACK ON FIAT HAS ALREADY BEGUN🔥

And the world is STILL ASLEEP.

It's not coming from nations. It's coming from corporations.

This is the most ELEGANT FINANCIAL COUP in HISTORY.

🧵This thread will change how to see the world FOREVER👇Image
Historically, speculative attacks were violent events:

• Soros vs the Pound (1992)
• Asia’s currency crisis (1997)
• Argentina’s peso collapse (2001)

They shorted currencies from within the system.

The new attackers?

They’re leaving the system entirely.

This is Speculative Attack 2.0.
Bitcoin Treasury Companies (BTC-TCs) like $MSTR, Metaplanet, and Smarter Web Company are not just buying Bitcoin…

They’re executing a recursive, memetic, legally bulletproof capital migration out of fiat.

They raise fiat → buy BTC → price pumps → equity premium widens → raise more → repeat.

Each turn: more capital leaves fiat.

Permanently.

🔥THE TRANSCENDENTAL ARGUMENT FOR GOD AND BITCOIN🔥

🧵 You can’t build a just civilization on fiat lies.

Logic, morality, and money all collapse without a transcendent anchor, and Bitcoin is the first technology to expose that fact.

This will BLOW your MIND👇Image
The Preconditions of Rational Civilizational Order

For civilization to function, let alone flourish, it requires:

Immutable truth (logic, math)

Objective value (ethics, justice)

Trustworthy measurement (money, time, contracts)

And a shared metaphysical anchor that transcends subjective whim.Image
Fiat Systems Violate These Preconditions

Fiat money is arbitrary, mutable, and centrally decreed.

It undermines logic by severing price from value, labor from reward.

It erodes morality through hidden theft via inflation.

It divorces time from consequence... offering temporal lies in place of eternal truth.

In short: fiat is relativism made economic.Image
