Trump-Backed American Bitcoin Expands BTC Reserves to ~5,427 Coins, Posts 105% Yield Since Nasdaq Debut

American Bitcoin Corp., a publicly traded Bitcoin mining and accumulation firm backed by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., has increased its Bitcoin holdings to roughly 5,427 BTC, the company reported this week. Since its Nasdaq listing on Sept. 3, 2025, the firm’s Bitcoin portfolio has delivered an approximate 105 % yield, highlighting robust growth amid ongoing mining and strategic accumulation efforts.

Latest Bitcoin Accumulation Figures

According to company updates and market reports, American Bitcoin’s total Bitcoin reserve has climbed to around 5,427 BTC as of Jan. 2, 2026 — up from approximately 4,783 BTC reported in early December. The increase reflects continued mining production combined with strategic purchases aimed at scaling the firm’s digital asset treasury.

The company’s reserve growth occurred during a period of sustained industry interest in Bitcoin accumulation by public companies, and American Bitcoin’s progress positions it among the stronger corporate holders of the asset.

Yield Since Nasdaq Debut

American Bitcoin went public on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on Sept. 3, 2025, following a reverse merger with Gryphon Digital Mining, marking one of the year’s most prominent crypto-related listings. Since that debut, the company’s Bitcoin holdings have appreciated by about 105 %, driven by Bitcoin’s own price performance as well as incremental accumulation.

The yield metric reflects the combined effect of both mining output and market price changes, underscoring strong performance for shareholders during the initial months of trading.

Strategic Position in Bitcoin Accumulation

Founded earlier in 2025 by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. — in partnership with mining operator Hut 8 — American Bitcoin was designed to serve as a Bitcoin accumulation and mining platform integrating expanded mining operations with treasury growth.

From its inception, the firm’s strategy has focused on building one of the most substantial Bitcoin treasuries among publicly traded entities, combining both mined Bitcoin and market purchases. The company’s operations span multiple mining facilities and leverage existing infrastructure to maintain a steady inflow of newly mined coins.

Market and Stock Context

Despite strong reserve growth, American Bitcoin’s stock performance has faced downward pressure since its public listing, with notable share price declines attributed to broader market volatility and investor sentiment in crypto-linked equities. Analysts have highlighted that the share price has dropped significantly in 2025 even as BTC accumulation has continued.

Still, the company’s unique position — backed by high-profile founders and strategic alignment with national Bitcoin advocacy trends — places it among a small group of major corporate Bitcoin holders.

Industry Implications

American Bitcoin’s expanding reserve and strong yield illustrate how institutional and public companies can integrate Bitcoin into long-term asset strategies. The firm’s accumulation mirrors broader interest in Bitcoin as both a mined commodity and a store of value, even amid broader market uncertainty.

Analysts suggest that such concentrated corporate holdings may influence discussions around supply dynamics and long-term investment frameworks for digital assets. While precise future trajectories remain speculative, American Bitcoin’s early footprint — alongside larger corporate holders — shows institutional approaches to Bitcoin exposure continue to evolve in 2026 and beyond.
