- 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%.
