American Bitcoin Raises Holdings to Nearly 5,900 BTC

American Bitcoin, a miner backed by members of the Trump family, said it has increased its bitcoin reserves to about 5,843 BTC.

Reserve growth

The company said it achieved a bitcoin yield of roughly 116% from its Nasdaq debut on Sept. 3, 2025 through Jan. 25, 2026.

It described bitcoin yield as a measure of how much a firm’s bitcoin holdings have grown over time, including coins mined or bought.

American Bitcoin posted on X:

“American Bitcoin has increased its total Bitcoin reserve to ~5,843 BTC and achieved a BTC Yield of ~116% from its Nasdaq debut on September 3, 2025 through January 25, 2026.”

Ownership and structure

American Bitcoin is roughly 20% owned by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump.

It became a standalone public entity after merging with Gryphon Digital Mining and spinning out from Hut 8’s mining operations.

Hut 8 retains an approximately 80% stake in the business.

Stock move and miner strategy

Shares rose about 2% in premarket trading Tuesday, though the stock remains down roughly 11% year-to-date.

The company’s holdings place it among the larger corporate bitcoin treasuries, as publicly listed miners increasingly treat bitcoin as a long-term balance-sheet asset.

That shift comes as bitcoin trades below recent highs, according to the report.

Prior quarter details

In Q3 2025 earnings, American Bitcoin reported a return to profitability and a sharp jump in revenue as it expanded mining capacity and benefited from higher bitcoin prices earlier in the cycle.

At the time, it said its bitcoin holdings had risen to just over 4,000 BTC, implying reserves have grown by more than 1,800 coins since then.
