In a bold move aligning with the U.S.’s growing interest in digital assets, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG)—parent company of Truth Social—announced plans to raise $2.5 billion to buy Bitcoin and establish a corporate treasury.
🔹 How?
TMTG will raise $1.5B through stock sales and another $1B in convertible debt from institutional investors. The funds will be used to acquire Bitcoin as a core asset, transforming the company into a digital asset-heavy media powerhouse.
🔹 Who’s Handling the BTC?
Crypto.com and Anchorage Digital have been selected as custodians for the upcoming Bitcoin reserves.
🔹 Market Reaction
TMTG shares dropped 10% after the announcement. Bitcoin, meanwhile, traded around $109,900, continuing its 2025 bullish trajectory.
National Strategy: U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve
This isn’t just business. Back in March, President Donald Trump signed an executive order creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve funded by Treasury-held BTC seized in past federal actions. This stockpile is intended to grow, not be sold—positioning the U.S. as a global crypto leader.
Legislation in Motion: BITCOIN Act
The BITCOIN Act, backed by Senator Cynthia Lummis and supported by Trump, proposes the U.S. acquire 1 million BTC over five years using existing federal funds. The plan is designed to be budget-neutral.
Controversy & Crypto Influence
Critics warn of blurred lines between Trump’s public role and his crypto interests, citing exclusive investor events tied to his personal token, $TRUMP.
📈 Crypto and politics are colliding—and Bitcoin may be the next national reserve asset.
