Two major players in the American crypto landscape — American Bitcoin Corp. (ABTC) and ProCap Financial (BRR) — have announced significant additions to their corporate Bitcoin reserves. The news arrives at a time when institutions and publicly traded companies are rapidly increasing BTC exposure in anticipation of the next market phase.

Eric Trump’s ABTC Adds 416 BTC in a Single Week American Bitcoin Corp., co-founded by Eric Trump and positioned as a modern operator blending mining, infrastructure, and strategic digital asset holdings, reported a substantial purchase of 416 BTC in the week ending December 8. With this latest acquisition, the firm now holds 4,783 BTC, according to a Wednesday press release.

Trump, who serves as the company’s Chief Strategic Officer, highlighted that the internal metric Satoshis Per Share (SPS) — measuring how much BTC backs each share — has climbed to 507 satoshis, marking a 17% increase in just over a month. SPS is considered a key valuation gauge for shareholders, reflecting the company’s long-term objective of strengthening its balance sheet with Bitcoin. ABTC shares rose slightly during Wednesday’s early trading session, though they continue to recover from a sharp 50% drop on December 2, triggered by the release of privately issued shares tied to merger activity.

Pompliano’s ProCap (BRR) Reaches the 5,000 BTC Milestone ProCap Financial (BRR) — newly listed after completing a SPAC merger and led by crypto entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano — is also expanding its Bitcoin treasury. The company added 49 BTC during the latest reporting period, pushing its holdings to a notable 5,000 bitcoin. According to the firm, the most recent purchase resulted in a realized loss, giving ProCap potential tax advantages by offsetting future gains.

Pompliano commented: “By using a tax-efficient optimization strategy, we created real value for our shareholders.” BRR shares experienced a modest uptick at market open, but remain down more than 60% in recent days as the stock stabilizes following its post-SPAC debut.

Corporate Bitcoin Accumulation Accelerates Across the U.S. The latest BTC purchases by ABTC and BRR highlight a broader trend: a growing number of public companies are treating Bitcoin as a strategic long-term reserve asset. Motivations include: hedging against inflation,treasury diversification,increasing shareholder value via BTC-backed metrics,and positioning the company within a rapidly expanding digital financial ecosystem. Both firms now rank among notable U.S. companies deepening their commitment to Bitcoin as part of a forward-looking corporate strategy.
