Corporate Bitcoin investment will double to over $105 billion in 2025.
Bitcoin (BTC) holdings of publicly traded companies have more than doubled, reaching 1.05 million BTC (approximately $105 billion). Over the past year, the number of such companies has grown from 74 to 207, representing a 180% increase in corporate ownership. According to BitcoinTreasuries.net, this dynamic marks a new era of institutional adoption, where Bitcoin is viewed not simply as an asset, but as a strategic reserve.
Main holders
The sharp rise reflects growing confidence among companies in the technology, financial, and energy sectors in Bitcoin's long-term potential, following the strategy of early adopters like MicroStrategy, Tesla, and Riot Platforms.
MicroStrategy remains the leader, holding 640,808 BTC—the largest corporate portfolio in the world. Its aggressive accumulation strategy has transformed the company into a publicly traded Bitcoin ETF.
MARA Holdings and Riot Platforms also hold significant reserves accumulated through mining. Other major holders include Bitcoin-focused investment firm Twenty One Capital and Japan's Metaplanet Inc., whose treasury strategy has earned it the nickname “Asian MicroStrategy.”
Growth drivers
The 2025 growth is driven by the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs and improved regulatory frameworks in key markets. This has allowed traditional investors to access the cryptocurrency through regulated channels, and corporations to incorporate it into their capital management strategies. ETFs and other funds now account for the largest share of Bitcoin in corporate treasuries.
According to the latest data, the total volume of Bitcoin held by all treasuries has reached 4.05 million BTC, an increase of 13.68% over the past 30 days. This accumulation reflects the growing perception of Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and the devaluation of fiat currencies.
Building trust
Despite market volatility, corporate confidence in Bitcoin continues to grow. Many companies have transitioned from pilot programs to long-term holding strategies, viewing it as a more reliable alternative to cash reserves amid tightening monetary policy and inflation risks.
More and more corporations are reducing their exposure to fiat currencies, reallocating capital into digital assets. With current volumes ($105+ billion), Bitcoin has transformed from a speculative asset into a recognized financial instrument. If the current rate of adoption continues, Bitcoin could become a standard element of corporate balance sheets worldwide by 2026.
