Analysis · ORBS · Finance
Eightco disclosed a treasury portfolio of approximately $378 million, substantially exceeding its $260 million market cap. The holdings include a $90 million indirect stake in OpenAI, which recently filed for a confidential IPO, and nearly 302 million WLD tokens — the largest publicly disclosed institutional position globally. This update reinforces the company's concentrated bet on AI and digital identity, but also highlights the extreme volatility and concentration risk inherent in its strategy, especially given the recent $76 million quarterly loss driven by digital asset fair value swings.
