On May 27, 2025, local time in the United States, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) announced a striking plan: to raise $2.5 billion through private financing to create a Bitcoin treasury.
This move has not only caused a stir in the financial sector but has also sparked new discussions in the political arena.
Background of the Bitcoin Treasury
TMTG's Bitcoin treasury plan aims to raise funds by issuing $1.5 billion in common stock and $1 billion in zero-coupon convertible senior secured bonds.
The funds will be used to incorporate Bitcoin into the company's reserves to achieve financial stability and long-term value storage.
At the time of the announcement, Bitcoin's price was approaching historical highs, and the largest digital asset event of the year, 'Bitcoin 2025', was being held in Las Vegas, undoubtedly adding significant attention to TMTG's plan.
