Institutional Bitcoin ownership skyrockets, with public companies collectively owning approximately 933,000 Bitcoins

In the rapidly evolving world of finance, a significant trend has emerged: the adoption of Bitcoin as a treasury asset by public companies. This strategic move, aimed at hedging inflation and diversifying reserves, has seen some of the world's most notable firms amassing substantial Bitcoin holdings.

According to a report released by Phoenix Group on August 8, 2025, the top 10 public firms with notable Bitcoin holdings, along with their approximate Bitcoin amounts and estimated values, are as follows:

  1. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) - Approximately 628,946 BTC, valued at over $73 billion.
  2. Mara Holdings, Inc. - Approximately 50,000 BTC, valued at ~$5.87 billion.
  3. XXI by Twenty One Capital - Approximately 37,230 BTC, valued at ~$4.37 billion.
  4. Riot Platforms - Approximately 19,225 BTC, valued at ~$2.26 billion.
  5. Donald Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) - Approximately 18,430 BTC, valued at ~$2.16 billion.
  6. Metaplanet - Approximately 15,555 BTC, with a significant value.
  7. Tesla - Approximately 11,509 BTC, value not explicitly listed but substantial.
  8. Block (formerly Square) - Approximately 8,584 BTC, value not explicitly listed.
  9. Marathon Digital - Approximately 16,000 to 50,000 BTC (likely near 16,000), value estimated in billions but variable.
  10. Semler Scientific - Approximately 4,449 BTC, value not explicitly listed.

Strategy (MicroStrategy), the largest public corporate Bitcoin holder, has adopted Bitcoin as its primary reserve asset. With roughly 628,946 BTC, their average cost per BTC is around $70,000 to $72,000, reflecting purchases financed via cash, debt, and equity. Mara Holdings, XXI, Riot, and TMTG complete the next tier of largest holders, each holding tens of thousands of BTC worth multiple billions USD.

Metaplanet, described as "Asia's MicroStrategy," holds around 15,555 BTC and is aggressively accumulating more, targeting 210,000 BTC by 2027. Tesla and Block are also significant holders, with 11,509 BTC and 8,584 BTC respectively, using Bitcoin as part of diversified treasury strategies.

The Bitcoin reserves of public firms total 933,591 BTC, valued at around $108.93 billion, representing a large institutional presence in the Bitcoin ecosystem. The combined Bitcoin holdings of these firms represent approximately 4.44% of the entire Bitcoin supply, indicating a strong trend of institutional accumulation.

This growing participation of corporate entities in digital asset investment is a testament to the increasing role of cryptocurrency in traditional financial markets. The Bitcoin holdings of public firms are spread across 126 different companies, with Strategy (MicroStrategy)'s Bitcoin stake alone representing nearly two-thirds of all Bitcoin held by public firms.

Other notable mentions include Bitcoin Group SE (BTGGF) with 12,387 Bitcoins, worth $1.45 billion, CleanSpark (CLSK) with 12,608 Bitcoins, valued at $1.47 billion, Galaxy Digital Holdings (BRPHF) with 12,830 Bitcoins, worth $1.50 billion, Metaplanet with 17,595 Bitcoins, valued at $2.05 billion, Bullish (BLSH) with 24,340 Bitcoins, worth $2.84 billion, and Coinbase Global, Inc. (COIN) with 11,776 Bitcoins, worth $1.34 billion.

As these numbers illustrate, the strategic trend of public companies increasingly adopting Bitcoin as a treasury asset is a significant development in the world of finance. This shift towards digital assets is expected to continue, further integrating cryptocurrency into traditional financial markets.

  1. The growing involvement of corporations in digital asset investment, such as Bitcoin, underscores the expanding role of cryptocurrency in traditional finance markets.
  2. Beyond the top 10 firms, companies like Bitcoin Group SE, CleanSpark, Galaxy Digital Holdings, Metaplanet, Bullish, and Coinbase Global also hold substantial Bitcoin holdings, further indicative of this institutional accumulation trend.
  3. As more public companies adopt Bitcoin as a treasury asset, this strategic move signifies a possible future where cryptocurrency and blockchain technology could have a profound impact on the global finance landscape.
