Public contribution companies added 131,000 Bitcoin (BTC) in the second quarter.
Under Trump’s government, regulatory support to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies grows.
Public contribution companies have intensified their investment in Bitcoin (BTC), surpassing for the third consecutive trimester purchases of quoted funds (ETF) specialized in the digital currency.
In the second quarter, Companies that quote on the stock market acquired 131,000 BTC, increasing their reserves by 18%while the ETFs added 111,000 BTC, an 8%rise.
The following graph illustrates that Bitcoin is being increasingly adopted by public companies and ETF as part of their portfolios or reserves, although with different rhythms and accumulation strategies throughout the quarter. The fourth quarter of the year 2024 was particularly remarkable due to the strong increase in Bitcoin flows towards business treasures.
This dynamic reveals two different approaches. Nick Marie, Chief of Research of Ecoinometrics, explained that public companies accumulate bitcoin to strengthen the value for their shareholders, regardless of price fluctuations.
“They don’t care if the price is high or low; they seek to increase their holdings to attract indirect investors,” said Marie. In contrast, ETF institutional buyers pursue market exposure, guided by macroeconomic trends.
Among the outstanding companies, Strategy (formerly Microstrategy), led by Michael Saylor, stands out with 597.325 BTC accumulated, consolidating as the biggest public holder in Bitcoin.
Despite this, the ETFs together continue to lead as entities with greater reservations, with 1.4 million BTC, equivalent to 6% of the total offer of 21 million BTC. Companies that quote on the stock market, meanwhile, have 855,000 BTC, about 4%.
The corporate impulse coincides with a more favorable regulatory environment under the administration of Donald Trump. In March, Trump signed an executive order to create a Bitcoin National Reserve, a measure that, as Cryptonoths reported, transformed the perception of the currency.
This action not only legitimized Bitcoin as a strategic asset, but triggered a domino effect, motivating more companies to integrate it into their treasury.
The official support of the United States has strengthened confidence in the market, encouraging corporate entities to follow the government’s example and accumulate Bitcoin’s own reserves, thus redefining the dynamics of the digital asset market.
