Strategy pioneered the DAT model, and by 2025, Ethereum DATs have sparked a new wave of staking activity. The core logic of the DAT model is a “finance–buy–refinance” cycle, forming a self-reinforcing flywheel. The attractiveness and risk profile of a DAT in capital markets are jointly determined by per-share token holdings, underlying asset prices, and mNAV. The Ethereum DAT model has evolved from merely being a token holder to becoming a network participant and yield generator. Based on the DAT Sustainability Five-Force Model, the conclusion is that only DATs with robust capital structures, transparent financial disclosure, and clear strategic positioning can truly survive market cycles.
