ReserveOne submits documents to the SEC to be listed on Nasdaq for 1 billion USD

Who is this billion dollar fever?

ReserveOne, a company in digital assets and financial technology infrastructure, has officially filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to pursue a $1 billion listing plan. The listing will be done through the merger of a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), a structure that allows companies to enter the mass market faster than traditional IPOs. This move highlights ReserveOne's scaling ambition as a global financial technology provider, as well as the fact that cryptocurrency-related companies continue to use SPAC to secure listing in the context of regulatory uncertainty.

After completion - subject to shareholder approval and regulatory approval - the consolidated company will be listed on Nasdaq, with the proceeds will be used to accumulate funds and expand operations. Form S-4, a registration report detailing the terms, risks and finances of the merger, will begin the SEC's 30-60-day review period, likely to end with a shareholder vote at the end of the year. The main terms include:

• Valuation and Capital Increase: The value of the enterprise in the form of pro forma exceeds 1 billion dollars, with PIPE commitments (private investment in public equity) from large companies such as Pantera Capital and Digital Currency Group to help increase capital.

• Post-merger structure: ReserveOne will operate as an independent public company, with bonus shares of sponsor M3-Brigade tied to performance milestones.

• Administrative safeguards: Strengthen the board's oversight of cryptocurrency risk management, including compliance with SAB 121 accounting rules for digital assets.

This SPAC roadmap avoids the complicated traditional IPO process, a tactic that boosted the cryptocurrency boom in 2021 but has since faced strict scrutiny behind the FTX exchange. However, with the Fed about to cut interest rates and Bitcoin ETFs accumulating $60 billion in AUM, regulators seem to be more lenient - as evidenced by the recent approval of Ether spot funds.

Yield meets HODL in the post-Halving world

ReserveOne's strategy is different from pure HODLs like Metaplanet by combining active management with passive holding. Initial deployments will prioritize liquidity staking derivatives (e.g. through Lido or Jito) and bridge CeFi with platforms such as Aave, aiming for a 5-8% annual return while minimizing temporary losses. Risk control measures include quarterly rebalancing, anti-ZK audit and volatility limit at 20%.

This combined approach exploits the $150 billion tokenized treasury market, which is expected to reach $500 billion by 2027 according to Boston Consulting Group. For cannabis companies or traditional companies that are aiming for cryptocurrency twists — like the recent operations of Flora Growth — ReserveOne offers a blueprint: The public listing will free up capital for on-chain tokenization, from yield optimization to compliance oracles.

Evaluation and conclusion

ReserveOne's efforts to promote SEC have reached a cryptocurrency turning point: The supply shock after halving encounters the FOMO mentality of institutions, with BlackRock's ETF IBIT holding 350,000 BTC. If approved in the fourth quarter, the listing could boost a new $500 million inflow of treasury bonds, putting pressure on competitors such as Semler Scientific to diversify the portfolio. However, there are still many pitfalls - SEC delays, market adjustments, or yield protocol exploits that can erode trust.
