Nano Labs Locks In 600 BTC as First Tranche of $500M BNB Treasury Notes Offering
Crypto's latest power move just dropped—Nano Labs isn't playing small ball. The firm snapped up 600 BTC (worth roughly $40M at today's prices) as the opening salvo in a half-billion-dollar notes deal backing BNB's treasury reserves.
Why this matters
Forget 'stablecoin yields'—this is institutional-grade crypto finance flexing. By collateralizing debt offerings with Bitcoin, Nano's effectively creating a bridge between legacy capital markets and DeFi's wild west. The $500M target would make this one of the largest crypto-native debt placements since Three Arrows... well, you know.
The cynical take
Nothing says 'bull market' like complex financial engineering reappearing—just in time for BTC's next ATH chase. Wall Street's playbook, now with 100% more Satoshis.
Nano Labs Receives $63.6 Million in BTC
According to a filing with the U.S. SEC, Nano Labs disclosed additional details regarding the $500 million convertible notes private placement for its BNB treasury strategy. The company revealed that it has received 600 Bitcoin worth nearly $63.6 million and issued two notes to the investors.
Notably, convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500 million are payable in cash or an equivalent amount of cryptocurrencies. After the latest raise, Nano Labs holds 1,000 BTC in its treasury.
“The company is doubling down on its BNB treasury strategy. BNB will be at the Core of our next phase,” said Nano Labs.
