The post Evernorth Losses Spotlight Digital Asset Treasury Risks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The month-long slide in crypto prices hasn’t just hit major assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) — it’s also dealing heavy losses to digital asset treasury companies that built their business models around accumulating crypto on their balance sheets. That’s one of the key takeaways from a recent social media analysis by onchain data company CryptoQuant, which cited XRP-focused treasury company Evernorth as a prime example of the risks in this sector.
