American technology microcap AIxCrypto Holdings (AIXC) is fully liquidating its digital asset portfolio and winding down its crypto treasury strategy.
The company filed the corresponding amendment to its Form S-1 with the SEC on Sept. 4, 2026. The asset sell-off comes amid heavy financial losses, with management recording an unrealized loss of around 50%.
According to its reporting as of Aug. 31, 33.49 BTC, 497.56 ETH and 6,325.92 SOL went under the knife, along with smaller positions in LINK, BNB and ADA. Notably, in its regulatory filings, AIXC separately described its XRP holdings as "immaterial" — management is clearly trying to shift investors' focus toward the fact that the main losses came from the decline of market heavyweights Bitcoin and Ethereum.
After disposing of the depreciated assets, the former pharmaceutical company plans to relaunch its business and fully pivot to the robotics market through the RoboShare platform.
This is not the first case of small-cap corporate players capitulating and realizing losses on altcoins to save their core business.
While some dismiss XRP as an "immaterial" asset, others are preparing for a Nasdaq listing
Tokyo-based Remixpoint previously made a similar move in the Asian market, completely clearing out its altcoin holdings — ETH, SOL, DOGE and 1.19 million XRP — to purchase energy storage systems, while retaining only Bitcoin on its balance sheet.
However, this series of isolated sell-offs reflects not panic, but a simple replacement of accidental investors with pragmatic players. While small businesses cut losses to survive operationally, institutions are changing their tactics.
During the same period, Kinetics funds disclosed direct positions in Ripple Labs' Class A preferred shares in SEC filings. Major Wall Street capital is entering the XRP ecosystem not through volatile tokens traded on exchanges, but by acquiring stakes in the issuer's business.
Meanwhile, the leading XRP-focused treasury holding company, Evernorth (XRPN), continues to calmly hold a monumental ~473 million XRP on its balance sheet as it prepares for a Nasdaq listing through a SPAC.
In this context, it would be wrong to claim that the corporate sector has become disillusioned with digital assets. It is simply carrying out a strict optimization and getting rid of unnecessary passengers.
