The move marks a significant escalation in the firm\u2019s crypto ambitions, with Bitcoin now comprising two-thirds of its $3 billion in total assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The parent company of Truth Social, streaming service Truth+, and fintech platform Truth.Fi, Trump Media originally laid out its crypto strategy in May, aiming to mirror the approach pioneered by Michael Saylor\u2019s Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy). That model involves using a mix of equity and debt to aggressively accumulate Bitcoin as a long-term store of value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe&#8217;re rigorously implementing our publicly announced strategy and fulfilling our bitcoin treasury plan,\u201d said Devin Nunes, CEO of Trump Media, in a press release. \u201cThese assets help ensure our company\u2019s financial freedom, protect us against discrimination by financial institutions, and will create synergies with the utility token we\u2019re planning to introduce across the Truth Social ecosphere.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company\u2019s deepening investment in crypto coincides with favorable regulatory shifts in Washington. On Friday, former President Trump signed into law the first federal framework for dollar-backed stablecoins, a move expected to boost institutional adoption of digital assets. In parallel, Trump-backed World Liberty Financial recently launched its own stablecoin, USD1, in partnership with BitGo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite Monday\u2019s rally, Trump Media shares remain down 25% since announcing the Bitcoin strategy in May and 45% year-to-date. While the bold crypto play has excited some retail investors, skeptics question the long-term viability amid intense market volatility and persistent short seller pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, Trump Media\u2019s aggressive pivot into crypto sets the company apart in the evolving landscape of digital finance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might like this article:<a href=\"https:\/\/stoxpo.com\/index.php\/2025\/07\/21\/promis-neurosciences-soars-160-after-fda-fast-track-designation-for-alzheimers-drug\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">ProMIS Neurosciences Soars 160% After FDA Fast Track Designation for Alzheimer\u2019s Drug<\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Company now holds two-thirds of its $3B in assets in crypto, embracing a bold Bitcoin treasury strategy Trump Media &amp; Technology Group (DJT) surged over 5% on Monday after the company announced it had acquired $2 billion in Bitcoin and related digital assets, solidifying its transition into a bitcoin treasury company.
