Tether Investments has proposed merging Twenty-One Capital, Strike, and Elektron Energy into a single publicly traded entity. Bitcoin reaching $80,000 in April sits at 2.8% YES.

The proposed merger would consolidate a financial services platform operating in over 100 countries and a mining operation with 50 EH/s capacity. The market for Bitcoin reaching $80,000 in April has dropped sharply, from 72% a week ago to 2.8% today. The $150,000 target sits at 0.1% YES.

The collapse in odds happened despite the merger’s scale. Daily volume is $51,800 in USDC, and the largest recent move was a 6-point spike at 9:50 AM. Traders clearly don’t expect the merger to move Bitcoin’s price toward $80,000 within April’s remaining window.

The merger would put Bitcoin financial services and mining under one publicly traded company, a direct signal of Tether’s strategic direction. At 3¢, a YES share pays $1 if Bitcoin hits $80,000 by April, a 33.3x return. That payout requires a rapid price move that almost no one in the market is pricing in.

Watch for regulatory responses or large institutional moves, specifically ETF net inflows or strategic Bitcoin acquisitions from actors like BlackRock or Fidelity. Those would likely shift sentiment more than the merger announcement itself.
