- Matador currently holds 175 Bitcoin, valued at about $15.3 million.

Matador Technologies, a Bitcoin financial services company, has been authorized by the Ontario Securities Commission to sell up to $58.4 million (CAD 80 million) worth of shares and other securities over 25 months. This funding will support its objective to hold 1,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2026.
The company currently owns 175 Bitcoin (BTC), valued at approximately $15.3 million, making it the 90th largest corporate Bitcoin holder, according to BitcoinTreasuries.NET data. Matador CEO Deven Soni stated that the firm remains focused on “increasing Bitcoin per share over time” and reiterated its target to achieve a treasury balance of 1,000 BTC by 2026, as reported here.
Mark Voss, the company’s chief visionary, commented on their cautious approach, saying they would keep close watch on Bitcoin’s price volatility and market cycle to allocate capital at advantageous moments. Despite the announcement, shares of Matador (MATA) fell 3.57% on the day of the news.
Institutional Bitcoin adoption continues to grow, with more than 190 publicly traded companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets. However, share prices of some firms embracing Bitcoin have declined amid crypto market pullbacks, leading to questions about the sustainability of Bitcoin treasury strategies.
Matador initiated its Bitcoin treasury strategy a year ago, acquiring 175 BTC within its first year. In July, the company shared plans to increase its holdings to 6,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2027, aiming eventually to control around 1% of Bitcoin’s fixed supply, roughly 210,000 BTC. Currently, Michael Saylor’s strategy is the only corporate Bitcoin treasury to have amassed that scale.
Some companies in the industry have started selling portions of their Bitcoin reserves to meet financial obligations during tighter market conditions. For example, chipmaker Sequans sold 970 BTC in early November to repay convertible debt, stepping back from its original plan to accumulate 100,000 Bitcoin over five years.
