Stablecoin龐然大物Tether代表二十一首資本進行了大量新的比特幣購買，迅速推動了與Cantor Equity Partners合併的SPAC。

According to a recent SEC filing, Tether scooped up 4,812 BTC on May 9 at an average price of $95,319. The purchase price was disclosed in a Form 4 filing, which also stated that the entire holding was sold on the same day.

根據最近的SEC文件，Tether於5月9日以95,319美元的平均價格搶購了4,812 BTC。購買價格以4檔案披露，該文件還指出，整個持股是在同一天出售的。

The bulk purchase, executed at the height of Bitcoin’s recent bull run, signals substantial confidence from Tether in Twenty One’s future endeavors.

在比特幣最近的公牛跑步高峰時執行的大量購買表明，Tether對二十個未來的努力充滿了信心。

Following the purchase, Twenty One’s BTC reserves are poised to swell to 36,312, making it the third-largest institutional Bitcoin holder.

購買後，二十一個BTC儲備有望膨脹至36,312，使其成為第三大機構比特幣持有人。

The startup is currently aiming to launch with 42,000 BTC in total, with contributions also expected from SoftBank and Bitfinex.

該初創公司目前的目標是總共42,000 BTC，預計Softbank和Bitfinex也有貢獻。

To date, Tether has announced plans to inject 23,950 BTC, SoftBank will contribute 10,500 BTC, and Bitfinex will add 7,000 BTC. These BTC holdings will be converted into equity at a price of $10 per share.

Earlier this year, reports emerged that Twenty One was in the final stages of securing a merger with Cantor.

今年早些時候，有報導稱，二十一處正處於確保與康托爾合併的最後階段。

The SPAC is planning to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker “XXI.”

該SPAC計劃在股票“ XXI”下在紐約證券交易所進行交易。

The merger, which is still pending regulatory approval, will see Cantor contribute its entire business to the combination.

該合併仍在等待的監管批准中，將使Cantor貢獻其整個業務。

Cantor is a well-known financial services firm that provides a diverse range of products and services, including investment banking, treasury management, and brokerage services. The firm is also a significant player in the SPAC market, having sponsored several successful SPACs in recent years.

Cantor是一家著名的金融服務公司，可提供各種產品和服務，包括投資銀行，財政部管理和經紀服務。該公司在SPAC市場上也是重要的參與者，近年來贊助了幾個成功的SPAC。

After striking a deal with Cantor to go public last year, Twenty advised investors to buy its shares at a price of $25 each.

去年與Cantor達成協議公開交易後，二十名建議投資者以每股25美元的價格購買其股票。

However, after several price increases, the final share price was set at $20, in anticipation of a smaller-than-expected SPAC.

但是，在價格上漲幾次後，最終股價定為20美元，預期的是超過預期的SPAC。

The SPAC’s structure is unique in that it will not generate any revenue or earnings. Instead, it will focus solely on accumulating Bitcoin and maximizing shareholder returns through cryptocurrency services.

SPAC的結構是獨一無二的，因為它不會產生任何收入或收益。取而代之的是，它將僅專注於通過加密貨幣服務累積比特幣和最大化股東回報。

This strategy is designed to appeal to investors who are seeking high-yielding investments in the rapidly growing cryptocurrency market.

該策略旨在吸引在快速增長的加密貨幣市場中尋求高收益投資的投資者。

Twenty’s SPAC is also noteworthy for its use of preferred shares to fund its Bitcoin purchases.

二十個SPAC也值得注意，因為它使用首選股票來資助其比特幣購買。

Typically, SPACs issue common shares to raise capital, but Twenty is taking a different approach by structuring a Series A preferred stock offering to investors.

通常，SPAC會發行普通股來籌集資金，但是二十種方法是通過為投資者提供一系列優先股的股票來採取不同的方法。

This strategy is significant because it could factor into the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan status of the SPAC.

該策略很重要，因為它可以將SPAC的薪水保護計劃（PPP）貸款狀態置於薪水保護計劃（PPP）狀態。

To qualify for PPP loans, a company must have less than 500 employees and be able to demonstrate that it has been materially affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

要獲得PPP貸款的資格，一家公司必須擁有少於500名員工，並且能夠證明其已受到冠狀病毒大流行的實質影響。

However, the structure of the SPAC could present a challenge in meeting these criteria.

但是，SPAC的結構可能會在滿足這些標準方面提出挑戰。

Despite striking a deal with Cantor in March, shares of the investment firm began surging in May.

儘管三月份與康托爾達成了達成協議，但該投資公司的股票於5月開始激增。

The move came after rumors of a pending merger with Twenty One began circulating, encircling a report from the New York Post that the SPAC was planning to invest $600 million into Binance.

此舉是在有傳言稱與二十一人開始流傳的謠言之後，環繞著《紐約郵報》的一份報告稱，SPAC計劃將6億美元投資給二手股。

It’s important to note that neither Binance nor Twenty One responded to requests for comment regarding the rumor.

重要的是要注意，binance and二十一家都沒有回應有關謠言的評論請求。

Cantor’s stock price had already been climbing rapidly since the start of the year, fueled by a strong performance by its core businesses and optimism about the SPAC market.

自今年年初以來，Cantor的股價就已經迅速上漲，這是由於其核心業務的強勁表現和對SPAC市場的樂觀態度。

Shares of Cantor closed on Monday at $29.84. But in May, the stock peaked at $59.73, before sliding as low as $16.33.

週一Cantor的股價售價為29.84美元。但是在5月，股票的峰值達到59.73美元，然後低至16.33美元。

After Tether’s recent purchase on behalf of Twenty One was announced, shares of Cantor rose by 5.2% in extended trading.

在Tether代表Tether代表二十一家購買後，Cantor Rose的股票在擴展交易中提高了5.2％。

The SPAC is still in the process of raising the remaining funds needed to complete its merger with Cantor.

該SPAC仍在籌集與Cantor合併所需的剩餘資金。

According to a recent Form 8K filing, the firm has already secured $585 million, which includes $385 million in debt from Triple Point Venture Growth (TPVG).

根據最近的8K備案表格，該公司已經獲得了5.85億美元，其中包括3.85億美元的債務，來自Triple Point Venture增長（TPVG）。

Among the investors who have already contributed to the SPAC is Bitfinex, which announced in December that it would be investing $700 million.

在已經為SPAC貢獻的投資者中，Bitfinex在12月宣布將投資7億美元。

The contribution from Bitfinex, the parent company of Tether, will see the cryptocurrency exchange transfer 7,000 BTC to Twenty One in exchange for a 10% stake in the SPAC.

Tether的母公司Bitfinex的貢獻將使加密貨幣交易所轉移7,000 BTC到Two -Twict，以換取SPAC 10％的股份。

At the time of the investment, Bitfinex CEO Wolfgang Pernhawi stated that the firm was a strong believer in Twenty One’s vision and was excited to be a part of the company’s journey.

在投資時，Bitfinex首席執行官Wolfgang Pernhawi表示，該公司堅信二十個人的願景，並很高興能成為公司旅程的一部分。

In total, Twenty One is aiming to raise around $1 billion to invest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency services.

總共有21個目標是籌集約10億美元，以投資比特幣和其他加密貨幣服務。
