Institutional confidence in Bitcoin is gaining fresh momentum, with dozens of publicly traded firms increasing their exposure to the digital asset.
As of mid-2025, at least 35 companies now hold over 1,000 BTC each, marking a substantial uptick in corporate participation compared to earlier this year.
The trend follows a key executive order by President Trump calling for the establishment of a national Bitcoin reserve—an event many see as a catalyst for the private sector to ramp up accumulation. Fidelity Digital Assets reports that these Bitcoin acquisitions are now spread across a broader array of companies, no longer dominated by a few big names.
Recent figures from BitcoinTreasuries.NET show that over 278 public entities have added Bitcoin to their balance sheets, more than doubling from earlier quarters. The U.S. leads in adoption, followed by Canada and the U.K.
Quarterly accumulation also spiked—up 35% in Q2 2025 versus the first quarter—reflecting both increased volume and participation. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s total market cap briefly overtook Amazon, adding fuel to the narrative that institutional capital is reshaping the crypto landscape.
With open interest in Bitcoin futures hovering just below record levels, analysts suggest that market participants are preparing for a pivotal move. While the price action has remained range-bound, the positioning points to rising anticipation from major players.
