Trump Media Bets Big: $2B Bitcoin Purchase Sparks 6.5% DJT Rally—More Crypto on the Way?

Trump Media just dropped a $2 billion bombshell on Bitcoin—and the market's already rewarding the gamble. DJT shares surged 6.5% as the company telegraphed even deeper crypto ambitions.

The Bitcoin Playbook

No half-measures here. This isn't some corporate treasury dipping a toe in crypto—it's a full-scale cannonball into the deep end. The move comes as institutional FOMO reaches fever pitch, with even politicians now chasing the crypto pump.

Wall Street's Ironic Twist

Funny how traditional finance scoffs at crypto volatility... until a $2B position makes their spreadsheets tingle. Suddenly, everyone's a 'blockchain believer.' Meanwhile, the SEC still can't decide if Bitcoin is a security, a commodity, or a threat to their golf schedules.

What's Next?

More fireworks. Trump Media's not done—their 'plans for even more' suggest this is either visionary conviction or the most expensive marketing stunt in political-financial history. Either way, hodlers win.

Trump Media and Technology Group Corp, the company behind Truth Social, Truth+, and Truth.Fi, has announced that it has invested about $2 billion in Bitcoin and related securities. At current prices, it is roughly 17,000 BTC.

Trump Media Eyes More Crypto Buys Ahead

This move is part of their ongoing bitcoin treasury strategy and now makes up roughly two-thirds of their $3 billion in liquid assets. In addition to this, Trump Media has also put aside around $300 million to buy bitcoin options. The company plans to keep buying more bitcoin and related assets, and may convert these options into actual bitcoin depending on market conditions. These assets will help generate revenue and could be used to buy even more crypto in the future.

Trump Media’s CEO and President Devin Nunes said, “We’re rigorously implementing our publicly announced strategy and fulfilling our bitcoin treasury plan.” He added that holding these assets can help protect against unfair treatment by banks and will also support the new utility token they’re planning to launch on Truth Social.

DJT shares jumped 6.5% after the news.
