Public companies now hold approximately 4% of all circulating Bitcoin, amount of over $100 billion, according to multiple reports from late 2025. This includes major firms such as Strategy, Tesla, and Robinhood, with MicroStrategy being the largest holder, boasting a Bitcoin portfolio valued at around $71.8 billion and generating $28 billion in gains [4]. Strategy’s long-term strategy, led by Michael Saylor, envisions acquiring up to 1.5 million BTC in the future, which would be worth more than $100 billion at current prices [4].
The shift reflects a growing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin as a reserve asset. Over 160 publicly traded firms now hold around 1 million BTC, with some, like Metaplanet and SharpLink, entering the market and adding to the trend. More than 35 public companies hold at least $120 million in digital assets, illustrating a broad-based change in corporate financial strategies [3]. The accumulation is driven by both strategic diversification and increasing confidence in the crypto market.
Institutional demand is also supported by major players such as BlackRock and Grayscale, whose BTC trusts have attracted significant investor interest. These movements indicate a broader trend of corporate treasuries treating Bitcoin as a legitimate store of value and hedge against traditional market volatility [1]. Firms are increasingly transferring Bitcoin from exchanges into institutional custody, reflecting a commitment to regulatory compliance and transparency [1].
The rise in Bitcoin holdings among public companies also signals greater market stability and infrastructure development. As corporate ownership increases, it contributes to smoother price volatility and improved liquidity, reinforcing Bitcoin’s role as a viable collateral asset in a digital economy [1]. This trend aligns with historical patterns of institutional adoption, which suggest a continued trajectory of mainstream acceptance.
The accumulation is not limited to Bitcoin alone. As part of broader crypto adoption, corporate treasuries have also added more than $100 billion in digital assets, including 1.3 million ETH—representing 1.09% of the Ethereum supply. This coincides with Ethereum’s 10th anniversary and reflects the maturing role of digital assets in corporate balance sheets [5]. The ongoing shift underscores the evolving landscape in which cryptocurrencies are now a key component of institutional financial strategies [5].
