According to CoinDesk, Geoff Kendrick, the digital asset research head at Standard Chartered Bank, warned that 61 listed companies currently hold 673,800 Bitcoins (3.2% of total supply), and if Bitcoin's price drops 22% below the average purchase price, it could trigger forced selling by companies. The report noted that Strategy (MSTR) holds 580,000 of these, accounting for the majority.

The current wave of Bitcoin corporate holdings may boost buying pressure but also introduces potential selling risks.
