Jack Mallers Jumps to Helm of New Bitcoin Beast: Twenty One

Strike's Founder Strikes Again, Leading Bitcoin-Focused Venture

Hold onto your hats, crypto fans! Jack Mallers, the fearless leader behind Strike, just snagged the CEO spot at a brand-new Bitcoin beast: Twenty One. This guy's not just playing the game; he's rewriting the rules!

The buzz about Jack Mallers steering Twenty One Capital, Inc. hit the streets after they spilled the beans on a wild business deal with Cantor Equity Partners. Yeah, that's the special-purpose acquisition company arm of Cantor Fitzgerald. Get ready, 'cause this is gonna be big!

Twenty One's rolling out the red carpet with over 42,000 Bitcoin (BTC) in its pocket, backed by heavy hitters like stablecoin giant Tether and Japan's investment powerhouse SoftBank Group. They're not here to play it safe; they're here to crank up the BTC ownership per share and dive into the wild world of BTC-native financial products.

"Our mission? To become the most successful company in Bitcoin, the ultimate financial rollercoaster of our time. We're not just beating the market; we're building a whole new one. A public stock, by Bitcoiners, for Bitcoiners," Mallers declared with fire in his eyes.

Mallers' digital payment powerhouse, Strike, has been on a tear lately, becoming the go-to spot for Bitcoin payments through the Lightning Network. These guys are on fire, and they're not slowing down!

But wait, there's more! Twenty One's not just about trading; they're building the backbone for BTC brokerage and helping companies stash Bitcoin in their corporate piggy banks. And get this—Mallers is betting big, predicting Bitcoin could hit a mind-blowing $1 million in 2024.

"With Jack at the helm, we're all in to push Bitcoin's adoption to the moon and cement its status as the ultimate store of value," said Paolo Ardoino, the head honcho at Tether. "We've always been about backing moves that beef up Bitcoin's dominance and real-world power. Twenty One's all about that Bitcoin-first life, just like we are—focusing on stacking sats, not just playing the market. It's about building real, long-term value for those who get what Bitcoin's all about," he added, ready to ride the Bitcoin wave.

Twenty One's got big plans, folks. They're diving into the Bitcoin ecosystem with lending and capital market instruments, and they're not stopping there. They're also throwing cash at pro-Bitcoin content and media. Their goal? To deliver a pure-play approach that cranks up the value for Bitcoin believers.
