Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS), a global leader in cellular IoT semiconductor solutions, has launched one of the boldest corporate Bitcoin strategies to date. The company aims to accumulate 100,000 Bitcoin by the year 2030, a move that could significantly reshape its balance sheet—and potentially set a new benchmark for corporate crypto adoption.
The initiative began on July 8, 2025, when Sequans raised $384 million in a private placement to fund its first Bitcoin purchases. In just one month, as of August 8, the company had already acquired 3,171 BTC, catapulting it into the top 25 publicly traded companies with the largest Bitcoin holdings.
Sequans’ Vision: Maximize Bitcoin Per Share, Boost Shareholder Value
CEO Dr. Georges Karam confirmed that this initial accumulation phase has been completed ahead of schedule. “We are committed to maximizing Bitcoin per share and delivering long-term value for our shareholders,” he said, emphasizing a disciplined and responsible approach to building a Bitcoin treasury.
Unlike short-term speculative strategies, Sequans views Bitcoin as a core long-term asset. The plan is not just to hold BTC, but to actively integrate it into the company’s financial ecosystem—enhancing resilience, reducing fiat exposure, and leveraging Bitcoin-backed tools for growth.
What’s Next: Equity, Bitcoin Credit, and Monetizing IP
Sequans’ next phase involves expanding its treasury through:
-
Equity issuance to fuel further BTC acquisitions
-
Bitcoin-backed credit instruments for liquidity and leverage
-
Monetization of intellectual property to unlock capital for Bitcoin investment
By 2030, Sequans aims to fully transition to a Bitcoin-optimized treasury model—utilizing BTC as a strategic financial foundation, not just an investment. The long-term goal is to create a new kind of corporate balance sheet: one that aligns with the evolving digital economy while maintaining transparency and shareholder value.
This bold move signals more than just interest in crypto—it’s a clear commitment to institutional-grade Bitcoin adoption, placing Sequans at the forefront of innovation in both tech and finance.
