Trump-Linked American Bitcoin Eyes Asia: Aggressive Crypto Reserve Stacking Strategy Unveiled

Move over, Treasury bonds—the Trump-affiliated Bitcoin venture is hunting Asian deals to bulk up its crypto war chest. Here's why it matters.

### The Asian Crypto Gold Rush

Forget mining—this playbook is about strategic acquisitions. Sources hint at backchannel talks with Korean blockchain firms and Singaporean OTC desks. No regulatory love letters yet, just old-fashioned capital muscle.

### Reserve Math That Would Make Keynes Blink

While traditional funds diversify into tokenized wheat futures, this operation's doubling down on pure-digital assets. Volatility? They're betting it's cheaper than political risk.

### The Unspoken Edge: Political Arbitrage

When DC regulators zig, Asia zags. Smart money knows geopolitical tensions create trading opportunities—especially when you've got brand recognition that cuts through KYC paperwork.

Closing thought: Nothing hedges against inflation like a well-timed tweet from Mar-a-Lago. The market's pricing that in at 30% premium already.

Company eyes Japan, Hong Kong for crypto expansion

Unlike Strategy, which doesn’t mine Bitcoin, American bitcoin actually produces the coin using its own hardware. The goal now is to stack more of it by turning Asian stock listings into crypto vaults.

These types of crypto treasury companies are on the rise, especially with the TRUMP administration easing regulations around digital coins. They raise money by selling shares or bonds, then flip that money into Bitcoin.

Retail traders in Asia, who already have a strong appetite for crypto, don’t have to worry about wallets or private keys. They can just buy stock and ride the price.

Asia’s demand is key. Japan’s retail traders have been DEEP into crypto for years, and Hong Kong has been working hard to become a crypto hub. American Bitcoin sees both as ripe for takeover. The company said, “We selectively explore accretive opportunities in other markets where we believe US leadership in Bitcoin can drive strong local demand.” It also stressed that while it’s looking, “we have not made any binding commitments.”

Eric Trump, who co-founded the company and serves as chief strategy officer, hasn’t commented on the plans. Neither has Donald Trump Jr., though both men were added to the board of Dominari Holdings, the parent company, earlier this year.

Mining gear deal, Trump Tower roots, and public listing plan

American Bitcoin wasn’t always called that. The company started as American Data Centers (ADC), a subsidiary of Dominari, a fintech and securities firm headquartered in Trump Tower in New York. In March, the company rebranded after entering a joint venture with Hut 8, another crypto miner.

As part of that deal, Hut 8 handed over all its mining equipment in exchange for a majority stake in ADC. Both Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump were already early investors.

Next month, American Bitcoin will go public in the US by merging with Gryphon Digital Mining, which is already listed on the Nasdaq. That reverse merger will allow the company to list without going through the traditional IPO process.

Once public, the company will likely use its new equity to expand its Bitcoin holdings and possibly fund the Asian acquisitions.

Meanwhile, Dominari Holdings just reported a 520% year-on-year increase in revenue, though the numbers were unaudited. That’s another signal that the Trump-linked crypto network is generating serious cash FLOW across different ventures.

And the Trump family isn’t stopping at American Bitcoin. In June, President Donald Trump disclosed $57 million in income tied to World Liberty Financial, another crypto group. This week, that company announced a deal to buy $1.5 billion worth of its own tokens with ALT5 Sigma Corporation, a Las Vegas blockchain company.

On top of that, the family’s social media business, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), which runs Truth Social, said it plans to raise $1.5 billion in equity and another $1 billion through convertible bonds, all to build its own Bitcoin treasury.
