PANews February 24 News, according to CoinDesk, Adam Back-led Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company (BSTR) is advancing its IPO plan, expecting to obtain shareholder approval as early as April, and to go public through a merger with Brandon Lutnick’s Cantor Equity Partners I. BSTR plans to hold 30,000 Bitcoins on its balance sheet upon listing, with 25,000 coins contributed by Back and other founding shareholders, and 5,000 coins in physical form from early investors. Back told CNBC that a weakening Bitcoin price could be beneficial for BSTR’s listing, as lower reference prices allow the company to accumulate more Bitcoin at a discount, which could strengthen the balance sheet and increase long-term upside if market conditions improve. He attributed recent Bitcoin declines to macro factors such as geopolitical tensions and tariff uncertainties, rather than regulatory issues, stating that the current U.S. regulatory environment is favorable.

Bitcoin ETF ends a four-week streak of consecutive gains, with IBIT seeing a sudden $200 million in daily redemptions
U.S. spot crypto ETFs saw outflows in the last week of March, with combined outflows from Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs totaling about $503 million. Although Bitcoin ETFs had net inflows for four weeks, they turned to redemptions this week, mainly due to worsening market sentiment. Ethereum ETFs continued to see outflows, but BlackRock’s ETHB recorded net inflows thanks to its staking feature, indicating institutional interest in yield-generating products. XRP ETFs moved slightly higher against the trend, but this was still not enough to signal a shift in the market toward altcoins.
