Crypto treasury inflows slow to the lowest since October 2024
Monthly inflows into digital asset treasury (DAT) companies have slowed to about $555 million, the lowest levels since October 2024, the month before the 2024 US election pump, according to data from DeFiLlama.
Inflows into digital asset treasury companies slipped to about $32.4 million ahead of the election, then rebounded to more than $12.3 billion following the results of the 2024 elections in the United States and a pro-crypto regulatory shift, DeFiLlama’s data shows.
Treasury inflows contracted in 2025 and remained well below $10 billion in monthly inflows until August 2025, before sharply falling again.
Digital asset treasury companies have faced a challenging business environment over the last year, which was made worse by the crypto market crash in October that kicked off a multi-month bear market and rolled back crypto prices to pre-election levels.

Treasury companies face reinvention following market crash
Treasury companies must evolve their business strategies or risk stagnating, according to Patrick Ngan, chief investment officer of Zeta Network Group, a technology company.
“Corporate Bitcoin treasuries now need to show they can actually use the asset, not just warehouse it,” Ngan said.
Crypto treasury companies with an operating business that produces cash flow will outperform those that simply accumulate and hold crypto, he said.
Treasury companies can generate revenue by staking or providing validation services to secure proof-of-stake blockchain networks, mining proof-of-work cryptocurrencies, lending in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space, and other unrelated businesses.
Real estate investor Grant Cardone last year expanded his multifamily housing fund strategy by combining real estate and Bitcoin (BTC) into hybrid digital asset treasury investment vehicles.
The fund benefits from the appreciation of the physical property, real estate tax advantages and rental income that can be funneled into additional BTC purchases, Cardone told Cointelegraph.
“If the company's just bitcoin, why am I investing in that company? Real estate is the best treasury company you can build because it's not a product that is discretionary — you have to buy housing,” he said.
