Crypto Briefing values the stack at roughly $450-480 million, depending on the bitcoin price used, and it puts NXTT's own market capitalization at roughly $7-8 million.
It's a lopsided balance sheet.
Why now (and where Binance fits)
Crypto Briefing tied the decision to the security breach at Binance, reporting that the exchange disclosed a hot wallet incident on October 29. NXTT, for its part, says none of its bitcoin was held through Binance. The board instead pointed to broader worries about exchange security (and it also cited quantum computing risk).
The company first disclosed bitcoin purchases in 2023 and expanded its holdings through 2024 and 2025, funding those buys with capital raises, the outlet reported. It hasn't added to the position since mid-2025.
Custody and leverage questions
Crypto Briefing flagged a verification gap in its analysis: NXTT's filings don't name its institutional custodians, and they don't provide wallet addresses that would let outsiders check the coins on the blockchain. That's the outlet's read of the filings, and NXTT hasn't addressed it in the disclosure as reported.
The borrowing route isn't free of risk either. Crypto Briefing noted that pledging bitcoin keeps the coins on the books but adds leverage, which introduces liquidation risk if prices fall sharply. The choice between selling and borrowing sits with the CEO, according to the report.
