American Bitcoin Corp. (ABTC), supported by the Trump family, has significantly increased its Bitcoin holdings, surpassing the 6,000 BTC milestone. This achievement positions the company among the top 20 publicly traded entities with the largest Bitcoin reserves worldwide.
According to blockchain analytics from Arkham Intelligence, American Bitcoin currently controls approximately 6,060 BTC, valued at nearly $413 million. Over the past month alone, ABTC has either mined or acquired around 217 additional bitcoins as part of its ongoing accumulation strategy during a period when bitcoin is striving to climb back above $70,000.
The company’s approach combines mining operations with direct market purchases to steadily grow its treasury assets—a method increasingly favored by firms aiming for long-term bitcoin exposure rather than short-term gains.
Data from BitcoinTreasuries.net reveals that American Bitcoin’s stash is nearing that of Galaxy Digital’s holdings, which stand at about 6,894 BTC.
Despite this impressive accumulation of digital assets, ABTC’s stock performance has faced challenges recently. After closing last Friday near $1.14—up roughly 1.75% on that day—the shares remain down significantly over the year.
The stock price has dropped sharply in recent months; it was trading above $2 in early January but declined alongside bitcoin’s price slump entering into this year and is now down about 45% year-to-date.
American Bitcoin emphasizes a “mining to treasury” model rather than operating solely as a mining company; their goal is to outperform traditional miners by holding onto mined bitcoins instead of selling them immediately on open markets.

Performance and Growth in Holdings
Earlier this year, American Bitcoin disclosed reserves close to 5,843 BTC and reported an impressive bitcoin yield exceeding approximately 116% since its Nasdaq listing in September 2025 through late January 2026. This yield reflects growth derived from both mined and purchased coins exclusive of capital raises.
Now having crossed the threshold beyond six thousand bitcoins held in reserve places ABTC among an expanding group of public companies treating bitcoin as a fundamental treasury asset rather than just speculative investment.
This past Saturday saw bitcoin rebound above $70K following strong gains throughout February spurred partly by U.S inflation data coming in lower than expected—which bolstered investor confidence across risk assets including cryptocurrencies.
The softer inflation figures heightened anticipation for earlier-than-expected Federal Reserve interest rate cuts which helped propel crypto markets upward while pushing bitcoin’s total market capitalization back beyond $1.4 trillion dollars once again.
The firm made its Nasdaq debut last September after spinning off from Hut 8 Corp., with Eric Trump serving as co-founder and chief strategy officer while Donald Trump Jr. holds an investor role within American Bitcoin Corp., reflecting significant involvement from members of the Trump family since inception.
