Hyperscale Data and American Bitcoin Expand Corporate Bitcoin Treasuries: The Institutional On-Ramp Widens

Corporate treasuries are loading up on digital gold. Two more names—Hyperscale Data and American Bitcoin—just joined the ranks of public companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets. It’s a trend that’s shifting from fringe experiment to mainstream financial strategy.

Why Corporations Are Stacking Sats

Forget the old playbook. Companies aren’t just buying Bitcoin for speculative kicks anymore. They’re using it as a strategic treasury reserve asset—a hedge against currency debasement and a potential yield-generating tool in a near-zero interest rate world. It’s a direct challenge to the traditional cash-and-bonds portfolio, which lately offers all the excitement of watching paint dry.

The New Corporate Playbook

This isn’t about day-trading. The move by Hyperscale Data and American Bitcoin signals a deeper operational shift. Firms are now building internal protocols for acquisition, custody, and accounting. They’re navigating SEC scrutiny and shareholder expectations, turning volatility from a bug into a managed feature. Some are even leveraging their holdings for collateral or earning yield—activities that would give a traditional CFO heart palpitations.

What This Means for the Market

Every corporate addition tightens Bitcoin’s available supply. It adds a layer of institutional demand that’s less fickle than retail sentiment. While Wall Street still debates ETFs, these companies are cutting out the middleman and going direct. It’s a tangible vote of confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term network value, not just its next price swing.

The trend is clear: corporate Bitcoin treasuries are becoming a standard operating procedure. As more balance sheets convert, the line between ‘tech investment’ and ‘core reserve asset’ blurs for good. After all, in a financial system addicted to printing money, holding the hardest asset available isn’t radical—it’s just prudent accounting. Even if it makes the old-guard bankers, who still think a ‘block’ is something to put under a wobbly table, deeply uncomfortable.

Sentinum Holdings and Recent Purchases

Hyperscale Data’s wholly owned subsidiary, Sentinum Inc., held approximately 498.46 Bitcoin as of December 14, according to the press release.

This total included about 69.68 Bitcoin generated from mining operations and 428.79 Bitcoin acquired on the open market, including roughly 41.31 Bitcoin purchased during the week ended December 14. At a Bitcoin closing price of $88,175, these holdings were valued at approximately $44 million.

Additional Capital Allocated for Bitcoin

Beyond its existing holdings, Hyperscale Data said it has set aside $31.5 million in cash for future open-market Bitcoin purchases.

The company said it plans to deploy this capital using a dollar-cost averaging strategy designed to reduce exposure to short-term market volatility while steadily increasing its long-term Bitcoin reserves.

Executive Chairman Milton “Todd” Ault III described reaching 97.5% of market capitalization as a major milestone, adding that the company remains focused on accumulating Bitcoin despite price fluctuations.

Hyperscale Data said it generally targets deploying at least 5% of allocated cash each week, though the pace may vary depending on market conditions. The company will continue to publish weekly updates every Tuesday detailing its Bitcoin holdings as it progresses toward its $100 million DAT target.

American Bitcoin Grows Treasury to 5,098 BTC

American Bitcoin has expanded its Bitcoin treasury to more than 5,098 BTC, marking a sharp increase in holdings since its Nasdaq debut on September 3, according to a company update on X.

American Bitcoin has increased its total Bitcoin reserve to over 5,098 BTC and achieved a BTC Yield of 96.5% from its Nasdaq debut on September 3 through December 14, 2025. Strategic accumulation continues. pic.twitter.com/yB4rYV1t6Y

The firm reported a BTC Yield of 96.5% over the period through December 14, 2025, a metric that tracks growth in Bitcoin exposure on a per-share basis rather than price appreciation alone. American Bitcoin’s satoshis per share ROSE to 533, reflecting continued accumulation and balance-sheet expansion.

A company chart shows steady growth in total BTC reserves throughout the year, with a notable acceleration in the second half of 2025 as American Bitcoin pursued what it described as a strategy of ongoing, disciplined accumulation.

The update places American Bitcoin among a growing group of publicly listed firms using Bitcoin as a Core treasury asset, as institutional adoption of BTC continues to broaden across equity markets.
