#AmericanBTC Raises $220M To Expand Mining Operations and Accumulate More Assets
American BTC, the mining firm backed by #EricTrump and Donald Trump Jr., has secured $220 million through private share placement.
The company sold over 11 million new shares to private investors, with approximately $10 million worth purchased using
$BTC at $104,000 per coin.
Net proceeds of around $215 million will fund strategic goals, including purchasing additional
$BTC and mining equipment.
The firm launched in March through a partnership between Hut 8 and American Data Centers, increasing Trump family involvement in crypto businesses.
American Bitcoin plans to go public in the second half of 2025 through a SPAC merger with Gryphon Digital Mining.
The company will trade on Nasdaq under ticker symbol ABTC once the #merger completes successfully.
This expansion aligns with President #Trump's goal of positioning America as a global leader in blockchain and digital assets.
