    4. Canadian Bitcoin miner Cathedra Bitcoin announced a strategic shift, intending to focus on buying Bitcoin rather than mining it.

    Cathedra Bitcoin's New Strategy

    In a memo dated September 16, Cathedra Bitcoin announced that all capital allocation decisions will now be aimed at maximizing the firm's Bitcoin reserves per share. This is the most important metric for many of its largest shareholders. The company stated that this formalizes a policy they have always held in their minds but have not always strictly followed.

    Reasons for the Strategic Shift

    Cathedra stated that Bitcoin mining had not provided enough shareholder value. Nine of the ten largest Bitcoin miners by market cap now hold less Bitcoin per share than they did three years ago, the company claimed. Meanwhile, other companies have adopted an explicit policy of increasing Bitcoin per share, most notably MicroStrategy, and have been rewarded by equity markets.

    Future Plans

    Cathedra plans to develop data centers to create predictable cash flows that will be directed towards buying Bitcoin. The company also intends to continue mining and retain the Bitcoin it produces. Similar to MicroStrategy and Metaplanet, Cathedra will issue equity, debt options, or hybrid securities to buy more Bitcoin and may also borrow against its balance sheet assets. The recent merger with computing infrastructure firm Kungsleden is also expected to assist Cathedra in increasing Bitcoin per share. According to Bitcoin Treasuries data, the firm is the 45th largest corporate Bitcoin holder with 23 Bitcoins worth $2.5 million.

    Cathedra Bitcoin is confident in the long-term success of its strategy, stating that we are in the early stages of a multi-decade trend that will see Bitcoin emerge as a dominant global reserve asset. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, the company has a market capitalization of around $20 million, despite a 91% drop in share price since October 2021.
