Grayscale: US $5 trillion deficit expectations lead to a surge in corporate Bitcoin demand

Gate News bot news, the encryption asset management company Grayscale Investments recently released its market report for May 2025, detailing how the ongoing fiscal imbalance in the United States has accelerated corporate demand for Bitcoin.

With the House of Representatives passing the "Great Beauty Act" on May 22, which is expected to increase the national deficit by $3 to $5 trillion over the next decade, institutional investors are increasingly interested in non-sovereign assets. On May 16, Moody's downgraded the U.S. sovereign credit rating to AA, further intensifying market concerns.

The report stated: "The fiscal risks in the United States seem to be giving rise to demand for Bitcoin, including the emergence of 'Bitcoin financial' companies - that is, publicly listed companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets."

Grayscale warns that the U.S. fiscal process has brought broader economic challenges: "The U.S. government is not close to default, but an unsustainable debt path will increase the risk of poor macro management over time and heighten investor interest in non-sovereign value storage assets like gold and Bitcoin." Meanwhile, companies are expanding from Bitcoin to Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, and even Trump coin.
