Bitcoin Blitz: Trump Media Goes All In with $2B Buy
Trump Media’s $2B Bitcoin Bet Ignites Wall Street, Crypto, and Washington in a High-Stakes Power Play

Trump Media & Technology Group has set the financial world ablaze. The company’s stock surged over five percent Monday after announcing it had purchased a staggering $2 billion worth of bitcoin and related securities. It’s a bold move that not only electrifies the crypto space but also repositions the former president’s media empire as a major player in digital finance.
The acquisition cements Trump Media’s evolution into a bitcoin treasury company, a strategy it had first floated in May. Now, with two-thirds of its total $3 billion in assets tied to bitcoin, the firm is diving headfirst into the world’s largest cryptocurrency. According to CEO Devin Nunes, the strategy is about financial freedom, resilience against institutional discrimination, and laying the groundwork for a broader crypto ecosystem. At the heart of that vision lies a new utility token designed for use across Trump’s digital platforms including Truth Social, Truth+, and the financial services brand Truth.Fi.
Trump’s crypto ambitions go far beyond headlines. On Friday, he signed into law the GENIUS Act, officially codifying the use of stablecoins in the United States. The legislation provides the first federal framework for dollar-backed digital assets, offering clarity that the crypto industry has long demanded. By anchoring stablecoins to the U.S. dollar, the move aims to drive broader adoption while ensuring regulatory guardrails are firmly in place.
