Cantor, Tether Launch $3.6B Bitcoin SPAC

Investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald, now run by founder Howard Lutnick’s sons, unveiled “Twenty One,” a SPAC that will hold 42,000 bitcoin—about $3.6 billion—backed by Tether, Bitfinex, and SoftBank. The vehicle lets investors buy stock tied to massive crypto reserves without managing wallets, and pledges to bankroll bitcoin-centric media and financial products to broaden adoption.

What this means for you:
Crypto-curious but wary of self-custody?
A publicly traded bitcoin holding company could fit tax-advantaged accounts and avoid exchange hassles.
In the meantime, remember share prices may swing more than spot bitcoin thanks to management fees and leverage.
