The crypto industry has witnessed another headline-making moment. American Bitcoin, a mining company tied to the Trump family, is officially making its debut on the Nasdaq stock exchange today. The listing has already sparked significant attention across both political and financial circles.
Backing from Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.
Among the company’s high-profile supporters are Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. To accelerate its path to the markets, American Bitcoin merged with Gryphon Digital Mining. Instead of taking the longer traditional IPO route, the firm opted for a share-for-share merger, giving it faster access to public capital markets.
Trading Under the Symbol “ABTC”
Following the merger, the company began trading on Nasdaq under the ticker ABTC. Control of the merged entity remains firmly in the hands of the Trump family and Bitcoin mining giant Hut 8, who together hold roughly 98% ownership. This majority stake ensures they have significant influence over the company’s strategic direction.
Strategic Focus: Mining, Data Centers, and Global Expansion
American Bitcoin is not limiting its ambitions to the United States. The company has outlined several key goals, including:
-
Low-cost Bitcoin mining operations
-
Expansion of advanced data center infrastructure
-
Exploration of global growth opportunities
In particular, acquisition prospects in Hong Kong and Japan are under review, signaling the company’s intent to strengthen its footprint in Asia’s competitive crypto market.
Holding 2,443 Bitcoin in Reserve
One of the company’s standout features is its sizable Bitcoin reserves. American Bitcoin currently holds 2,443 BTC, providing a solid financial foundation and an edge over many competitors in the mining sector. These holdings not only boost balance sheet strength but also reinforce its long-term positioning.
