'The digital asset industry has suffered major setbacks from leveraged borrowing without capital controls or risk management,' Two Prime's nathanieljcox writes. Opinion.

This past year has created an unprecedented risk event for the Bitcoin community. While we’ve seen this level of spot price volatility before, the leverage within the mining community has reached record levels. This has compounded the effects of debt exposure with falling spot prices, increasing energy price and diminishing collateral value. Bad treasury management ran rampant in 2022 and led to a problem that financial hedges can solve and/or prevent.

Nathan Cox is the chief investment officer at Two Prime, which offers structured products and derivative strategies for digital assets and risk management. The answer will not be the same across the board, and we have already seen several casualties of the new bear regime. Our concern is that bitcoin miners have over-exposed themselves, and now face potential liquidation if bitcoin prices remain depressed for an extended period of time.Miners must incorporate sophisticated financial strategies, in line with energy and commodity companies who have come before them.
