Corporate adoption of Bitcoin continues its rapid ascent as at least 35 publicly traded companies now hold a minimum of 1,000 BTC each worth over $116 billion in aggregate value. That figure marks a sharp rise from early 2025, when only 24 firms exceeded that threshold. Salt miners, technology companies, and insurance groups are adding BTC as part of treasury diversification strategies. According to Fidelity Digital Assets, total corporate holdings now exceed 134,000 BTC outpacing new mining supplies.
This buildup follows clearer U.S. asset accounting guidelines and new laws favorable to Bitcoin reserves. Firms across industries view BTC as hedge protection and long term store of value. Notable examples include MicroStrategy (now Strategy), which holds close to 600,000 BTC and reported its first quarterly profit in over half a year thanks to crypto gains. Analysts expect more public companies to follow suit, motivated by reports of liquidity, inflation pressure, and institutional confidence. This marks a shift from crypto as fringe speculation to a staple of corporate financial strategy.
