- American Bitcoin mines 2% of the daily Bitcoin supply, with 35,000 machines running on American energy.
- The company holds 4,004 BTC, ranking 25th among global corporate Bitcoin holders.
- Founded in 2025, American Bitcoin raised $220 million to expand its holdings and mining capacity.
Eric Trump has shared a glimpse into the operations of American Bitcoin, a company he co-founded. In a recent video posted on X, he revealed that the company’s mining facility produces around 2% of the daily Bitcoin supply. The video showcased rows of high-performance, liquid-cooled servers, highlighting the scale and sophistication of the operation. With about 35,000 machines running 24/7, American Bitcoin relies on “American energy” to mine Bitcoin at its facility.
Massive Mining Operation and Tangible Infrastructure for Bitcoin
The American Bitcoin plant is constructed in a very efficient manner and possesses a lot of machines for mining the cryptocurrency . All those machines are involved in the processing of transactions and securing the Bitcoin network, where, of course, new BTC is produced daily.
Eric Trump explained that the mentioned 2% proportion relates to the daily output of newly minted Bitcoin, which is only a small part of the whole circulating supply. This activity marks a considerable share of the world’s Bitcoin mining. Eric Trump emphasized that Bitcoin is a tangible asset, pointing to the physical infrastructure required to mine the cryptocurrency.
Mining Bitcoin involves much more than just digital processes; it requires substantial physical resources such as high-performance computers, cooling systems, and a reliable energy source. The American Bitcoin facility stands as “living proof” of the tangible nature of Bitcoin production, Eric noted. This physical infrastructure, he argues, proves the cryptocurrency’s real-world value and its ability to be mined using traditional energy sources.
The Role of American Bitcoin Holdings
Founded in March 2025, American Bitcoin operates as both a Bitcoin treasury and mining company. The company holds a significant amount of Bitcoin, with 4,004 BTC, ranking it 25th among corporate Bitcoin holders globally. The company is a joint venture, with Eric Trump’s company, American Data Centers, holding 20% of the firm.
The remaining 80% is owned by Hut 8 Group. To further expand its holdings, American Bitcoin raised $220 million earlier this year. This funding was used to purchase additional Bitcoin and to invest in more mining equipment.
American Bitcoin aspires to take the first place in the market for global cryptocurrencies. Eric Trump is sure the firm has the potential to make a huge difference and is the main supporter of Bitcoin, who is telling the investors to utilize the negative market situation for more BTC accumulation. In Trump’s view, Bitcoin is the same as gold, and there will be a capital transfer from gold to Bitcoin in the future that is sooner than expected.
