An in-depth discussion with Sebastian Bea, President & Head of Investments at ReserveOne, and Vik Mittal, Managing Member at Meteora Capital Partners
If there has been one hot summer trend among SPACs, it has been the crypto treasury business combination.
To help better understand this new genre of SPAC deal, we sat down with Sebastian Bea, President and Head of Investments at ReserveOne, which announced a $1 billion combination with M3-Brigade Acquisition V Corp. (Nasdaq: MBAV) last month.
We’re also joined by Vik Mittal, Managing Member at Meteora Capital Partners. They discuss why this particular play has come to the forefront of the market now and how the market has reacted as more and more entries of this deal-type have been announced.
Sebastian also explains how ReserveOne plans to generate returns greater than the value of its underlying assets and are earmarking a portion of its portfolio for private investments.
How will ReserveOne and other companies of this type continue to differentiate themselves as their cohort grows? And what happens if the US government changes its attitude on crypto once again?
Give it a listen.
