Trump Media & Technology Group has expanded its Bitcoin portfolio by acquiring an additional 451 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $40.3 million.
This acquisition increases the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 11,542 coins, now valued at over $1 billion, according to analytics firm Arkham.
The recent purchase is part of Trump Media’s larger cryptocurrency treasury strategy. Earlier in 2025, the company reported having around $2 billion in Bitcoin and similar digital assets as it increasingly establishes itself as a crypto-focused investment firm.
In July, Trump Media unveiled plans to launch the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF, with Crypto.com acting as the exclusive custodian, primary execution agent, staking, and liquidity provider. Yorkville America Digital, LLC was appointed as the sponsor of the fund.
The launch of the ETF was dependent on SEC approval of a Form 19b-4 filing and the effectiveness of its registration statement.
The fund was established as a Nevada business trust, issuing and redeeming shares in blocks of 10,000 through authorized participants, utilizing cash for creation and redemption. While in-kind transactions were not initially available, they might be introduced later pending regulatory approval.
At the time, Trump Media indicated that the shares could not be sold or purchased until the SEC registration statement became effective.
Trump Media stock rises
As of now, shares of Trump Media & Technology Group ($DJT) are down nearly 10% for the day. Nevertheless, the stock experienced a substantial surge last week following an unexpected all-stock merger announcement with TAE Technologies, valuing the newly formed entity at over $6 billion.
Shares soared approximately 42% on Thursday, adding more than half a billion dollars to the Trump family’s holdings, increased by another 8.3% on Friday, and rose 3.6% in Monday’s premarket trading.
The merger transformed TMTG from a social media company into a fusion energy venture, aiming to construct nuclear fusion plants to power artificial intelligence operations.

TMTG specializes in social networking, streaming via Truth+, and financial services through its FinTech brand, Truth.Fi.
