Corporate Bitcoin Accumulation Continues as American Bitcoin Takes the Lead

  • American Bitcoin has surpassed ProCap Financial in corporate Bitcoin holdings, accumulating 5,044 BTC valued at approximately US$443 million.
  • The corporate buy-and-hold trend is expanding despite a broader price pullback in BTC, with the top 100 publicly listed corporate holders now controlling over 1.08 million BTC.
  • This accumulation has increased the link between BTC price movements and equity performance, leading to amplified share-price volatility for treasury-heavy companies like American Bitcoin and Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy).

American Bitcoin has moved ahead of ProCap Financial in the corporate Bitcoin treasury rankings after building its holdings past the 5,000 BTC mark, despite a broader pullback in Bitcoin prices.

Data from BitcoinTreasuries.NET shows American Bitcoin holds 5,044 BTC, valued at about US$443 million (AU$677 million). ProCap Financial, founded by Anthony Pompliano, is slightly behind with roughly 5,000 BTC, placing it outside the top tier of corporate holders even as it continues to add to reserves.

The key point is not the gap between the two, but that the corporate buy-and-hold Bitcoin model is still expanding even while BTC has been under heavy pressure. The price of BTC took a deep nosedive this Monday, falling below $85K (AU$128K) at some point, according to CoinGecko.

Corporations Expand Their Control Over the BTC Supply

The accumulation trend is widening as the top 100 publicly listed corporate holders now control more than 1.08 million BTC combined, increasing the link between bitcoin price moves and equity performance for companies that hold large balances or operate Bitcoin-linked businesses.

That linkage has increased share-price volatility. American Bitcoin’s stock fell more than 50% in one session earlier this month, while Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, is down more than 60% from its peak, showing just how treasury-heavy models can amplify market stress when investor risk appetite weakens.

It should be noted that the US left crypto out of Trump’s National Security Strategy, despite his early public support and focus on it, something that didn’t sit right with the community after years of pumping hype and launching an official memecoin, which is now down over 90%.

Bitcoin-to-Gold Ratio Plunges 50% in 2025 as Precious Metal Outshines Digital Asset

Bitcoin-to-Gold Ratio Plunges 50% in 2025 as Precious Metal Outshines Digital Asset

The Bitcoin-to-gold ratio has collapsed by 50% in 2025, marking a dramatic reversal in the relative performance of the two assets often positioned as alternatives to traditional fiat currencies. Gold has surged to record highs on the back of unprecedented central bank accumulation and robust ETF inflows, while Bitcoin has struggled amid persistent ETF outflows and significant selling pressure from long-term holders. This divergence challenges the narrative that has gained traction over the past decade positioning Bitcoin as "digital gold"—a superior store of value offering gold's monetary properties with added portability, divisibility, and verifiability. In 2025, investors have voted decisively for the original over its digital challenger, at least in relative terms.

Holiday Season Sees Surge in Crypto Scams as Fraudsters Target Distracted Users

Holiday Season Sees Surge in Crypto Scams as Fraudsters Target Distracted Users

The holiday season has brought an unwelcome gift to the cryptocurrency community: a marked escalation in fraudulent activity across multiple attack vectors. Scammers are ramping up phishing campaigns, fake token presales, romance schemes, impersonation tactics, and malicious applications, all designed to separate distracted users from their digital assets during a period of reduced vigilance. The timing is deliberate. Holiday distractions, year-end financial activity, and the general atmosphere of goodwill create ideal conditions for social engineering attacks. Users juggling shopping, travel, and family obligations may exercise less caution when reviewing messages or evaluating opportunities. Scammers understand this seasonal psychology and calibrate their campaigns accordingly.
