Where CBNA is headed
Chain Bridge is a strange creature. A $2 billion bank sitting in McLean, Virginia, running what is effectively the operational treasury for a large chunk of the American political apparatus. Campaign committees, PACs, party organizations, political consultancies. When money floods into the 2024 cycle, Chain Bridge's deposits balloon. When the cycle ends, they drain. That is the entire investment story, and it's the reason revenue grew 55% in the trailing twelve months while next year's earnings are expected to fall 18%.
