JUST IN: 🇫🇷 Sequans becomes the first Bitcoin Treasury Company to officially sell part of its Bitcoin holdings.

The firm announced it had sold 970 BTC in order to redeemed 50% of its convertible debt from its July 7, 2025 offering,

This move reduces Sequans’ total outstanding debt from $189M to $94.5M.

Its Bitcoin holdings now stand at 2,264 BTC, down from 3,234 BTC.

CEO Georges Karam called the sale a “tactical decision aimed at unlocking shareholder value” amid current market conditions.

FRANCE PUSHES UNREALIZED GAINS TAX ON BITCOIN

🇫🇷 French MPs have voted to advance a proposal replacing France’s property wealth tax with a broader levy on “unproductive wealth.”

This would include assets like Bitcoin, jewellery, art, yachts, property and other “luxury” items.

The reform, still subject to parliamentary review, would apply a flat 1% annual rate, even if the assets aren’t sold.

Supporters say it will push capital toward productive investments, while critics warn it could punish savers, complicate valuations, and revive old political divides over the former ISF wealth tax abolished in 2017.
