The cohort of public companies with at least 1,000 Bitcoin (BTC) holdings has skyrocketed from 24 as of July 25 to 35, representing an increase of nearly 50%.
According to New numbers released This growth has led to the group’s combination of 900,000 BTC, bordering towards the iconic 1 million BTC mark, according to Chris Kuiper, vice president of research at Fidelity Digital Assets.
The chart shows that the number of heavyweight corporate owners began to accelerate late last year after attacking Plateau in 2023 and continues to increase.
Achieve diversification
Kuiper claimed that in addition to the increase in companies, the buying patterns also showed significant changes.
In the first quarter, businesses acquired less than 100,000 Bitcoin. One company controlled the flow, leaving the other slices of the pie chart thin.
By the second quarter, purchases had risen to over 154,000 BTC, up 35% from the previous quarter. More importantly, the acquisitions were shared across a much broader financial set.
The second pie chart packs hair with new slices, indicating that Bitcoin is no longer a preservation of the pioneering balance sheet.
Increase in demand
Apart from the heavyweight acquisition of Bitcoin, the recruitment of a wide range of companies has also increased this year.
In the first six months of 2025, Public companies absorbed 245,510 BTCmore than twice the 118,424 BTC created for spot exchange trade funds over the same stretch.
Its hauling is a 375% leap from the 51,653 BTC companies picked up in comparable 2024, and after last year’s launch-driven burst, trade funds (ETFs) demand plummeted by more than 56% per year.
The strategy still leads the pack at 135,600 BTC, accounting for nearly 55% of the total, but its share is down from 72%, indicating that purchases have expanded beyond a single pioneer.
The board currently purchases around 2.1 BTC per ETF COIN MINTED, with less Bitcoin as a speculative punt and framing it as working capital or reserve assets.
