The firm offers public equity exposure to bitcoin, focusing on "capital-efficient bitcoin accumulation" and Bitcoin ecosystem services.
According to interviews with Eric Trump and ABTC Executive Chairman Asher Genoot, American Bitcoin (ABTC) has structured its business around one clear aim: add more Bitcoin to its balance sheet. Related Reading: Bitcoin Trail Ends: $29M Seized After European Authorities Shut Down Cryptomixer The firm says it spends less on big management teams and more on mining and buying Bitcoin so each share holds more Bitcoin over time. That metric — Bitcoin per share — is tracked in the same way public companies track earnings per share, the executives said. American Bitcoin Tracks Bitcoin Per Share ABTC’s leaders told investors they treat the number of Bitcoin each share represents as the core performance measure. Genoot said the firm began with a single question: “What do investors actually want from a Bitcoin-focused business?” Based on reports, the answer they reached was simple — grow the amount of Bitcoin held per share. That amount, they say, should rise each day thanks to mining and occasional purchases when markets look attractive. Company Adds BTC ‘At A Steep Discount’ Trump told investor Grant Cardone that ABTC adds new Bitcoin to its balance sheet every day at what he described as a steep discount compared to market prices. According To his comments, the firm also plans to keep buying when conditions are favorable. The approach is straightforward: mine and accumulate rather than chase short-term fiat profits. This strategy is pitched as a way to give shareholders more direct exposure to Bitcoin’s future gains. JUST IN: Trump family-backed #Bitcoin miner American Bitcoin Corp increased its holdings by 363 BTC and now holds a total of 4,367 BTC. ????Bitcoin 100 Ranking: 23???????? pic.twitter.com/hSAK9yLd3u — BitcoinTreasuries.NET (@BTCtreasuries) December 4, 2025 Bullish Price Calls And Timeframes Trump has made very large price forecasts publicly. He forecast $1 million for Bitcoin in late 2024 and repeated that belief during 2025 at a conference in Hong Kong. During a recent interview, he projected Bitcoin could trade above $500,000 within the next four years, marking November 2029 as a benchmark date. Those figures underline why ABTC’s model is built on a long-term and highly optimistic outlook for BTC. Global Demand And Institutional Access Trump pointed to strong demand in many parts of the world as part of his reasoning. He said he sees interest from governments, family offices, big companies, and wealthy individuals.

The XRP price has staged a strong rebound in recent days, rising from early-December weakness and climbing back above $2. The recovery comes just after crypto analyst CasiTrades published a detailed technical outlook on the social media platform X, where she outlined a scenario that anticipated both the initial decline and the current bounce. Now that XRP has begun moving upward towards $2.2, the focus is on what the next phase of this pattern could bring next. Subwave 3 Targets Hit As Structure Plays Out CasiTrades explained that XRP’s early-December drop was part of a subwave 2 setup that had been discussed during her previous livestream. When XRP fell to $2.03 in early December, it confirmed the transition into a subwave 3 extension, and the next projected target sat near $1.90. That level was important not only as a Fibonacci extension but also because it corresponded with Bitcoin reaching its macro 0.382 level around the $79,000 region. Related Reading: Are Dogecoin Whales Leaving The Meme Coin? Large Transactions Crash To 2-Month Lows The chart attached to her analysis illustrated this path clearly. A sequence of orange, pink, and black wave structures converged toward the same support region, all pointing toward $1.90 as the initial landing zone. As shown in the chart image below, there’s another green accumulation block between $1.80 and $1.64 as the deeper support level that could still come into play. XRP Chart Analysis. Source: @CasiTrades On X At the time of her analysis, selling pressure was already slowing down, and momentum indicators like the RSI were building a bullish divergence. Since then, XRP’s price action has turned bullish, and this supports the idea that a reaction was always likely to occur in the $1.90 zone. CasiTrades noted that once the price reached this level, she expected a bounce back toward $2.04 to retest resistance for a new Wave 4 formation. Over the past few days, XRP has done exactly that, rising from its lows and reclaiming momentum as buyers returned. Two Final Scenarios Still In Play For XRP According to CasiTrades, there are two possible outcomes for the XRP price against the backdrop of retesting $2.04. The first outcome is a double bottom forming around the $1.80 to $1.88 region, depending on the exchange. The chart she shared includes a mid-range support box that captures this possibility, with wave markings showing how price could rotate downward before a larger breakout. Related Reading: Here’s What To Expect If The XRP Price Holds $2 The second potential outcome is a deeper sweep to $1.64, which is based on the macro 0.618 support. This zone forms the lower boundary of the green accumulation block on her chart, representing the final area where a full Wave 2 or Wave C completion could occur before XRP attempts a larger impulsive breakout.

US Senator Cynthia Lummis has reignited speculation that the United States could move to materially increase its Bitcoin holdings, after posting a Bitcoin-themed image on X with the caption: “₿ig things coming for Franklin!” Lummis Revives Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Hype The image is drawn as a children’s book cover titled “FRANKLIN BUYS BITCOIN AND FINDS FINANCIAL FREEDOM.” At the center sits Franklin, a cartoon turtle in a backwards red cap and bandana, seated at a wooden desk. In front of him is a laptop emblazoned with the orange Bitcoin logo, clearly signaling that he is using Bitcoin-related software or services—most obviously, buying or managing BTC. Franklin’s eyes project bright “laser beams” at the screen, echoing the well-known “laser eyes” meme in Bitcoin culture. Related Reading: Bitcoin Blasts To $92,000, Liquidating $182 Million In Shorts On the desk lie physical coins stamped with the Bitcoin symbol, and a glass jar filled with more of these Bitcoin coins. The jar seems to function as a visual metaphor for saving and stacking sats over time. The subtitle “and finds financial freedom” explicitly connects Bitcoin accumulation with the idea of long-term economic sovereignty. Bitcoin-focused accounts immediately interpreted the post as a policy signal rather than a simple meme. Bitcoin Magazine summarized the moment as: “JUST IN: US Senator Cynthia Lummis hints at buying Bitcoin”. Bitcoin Archive went further, claiming: “JUST IN: US Senator Cynthia Lummis hints at a potential US Bitcoin buy. Senator Lummis has recently submitted legislation to have the US government buy 1 million Bitcoin.” Related Reading: Bitcoin And The 2026 Fed Shift: Expert Says Markets Aren’t Ready That reading is consistent with Lummis’ own public rhetoric. On November 5 she wrote via X: “I truly believe the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is the only solution to offset our national debt. I applaud @POTUS and his administration for embracing the SBR, and I look forward to getting it done.” Her legislation has pushed for a formal US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and explicitly contemplated the government holding up to 1 million BTC over time. The meme also lands after President Trump’s executive order from March this year establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve framework. While it has become very quiet around the topic, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently attended the opening of the Bitcoin bar PubKey in Washington. For many in the market, those developments, combined with Lummis’ latest post, suggest that concrete steps toward expanding US Bitcoin reserves may be progressing quietly in the background. So far, however, there has been no official confirmation of state-level Bitcoin purchases. For now, Franklin remains a symbolic turtle with laser eyes at a Bitcoin laptop—but in a market hyper-attuned to political signals, Lummis’ image is being read as the clearest hint yet that the United States could one day be the largest sovereign Bitcoin buyer. At press time, Bitcoin traded at $93,381. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
