Trump Media, the parent company of United States President Donald Trump Social Media, plans to raise $2.5 billion for the purchase of bitcoin. The company will operate an open Bitcoin fund through the sale of shares and debts, using Michael Saylor.
According to the Tuesday announcement, the sources of funding included the sale of $1.5 billion in common shares and $1 billion in convertible bonds. Convertible bonds are a debt product that can be converted into corporate equity. The price of shares in the New York market fell by 11 per cent on Tuesday in the Trump media, as investors took into account possible stock sales disclosures. It was mentioned that potential stock sellers might include in-house persons such as the Trump Trust, which held 57 per cent of the company ' s shares.
“The top of financial freedom”
Chief Executive Officer Devin Nunes described Bitcoin as the “capture instrument of financial freedom” and said that the acquisition would help protect companies from financial persecution by mainstream forces. This is at a time when Democrat parliamentarians are trying to stop Trump and other public officials from consummating themselves through activities related to encrypted money.
Reshaping bitcoin patterns
How did Trump's “memecoin dinner” redefine the breakthrough of Satoshi Nakamoto? This is part of the most recent and loudest business in the Bitcoin balance sheet competition. Seller and his company, MicroStrategy, began this era in August 2020 when they began to acquire bitcoin.
MicroStrategy is now more like a bitcoin agent than a software company, holding more than $6.3 billion in bitcoin, the largest of all publicly listed companies. The Japanese investment company Metaplanet also followed closely, holding more than $850 million in bitcoin and making it Japan ' s largest trading stock.
For MicroStrategy and Metaplanet, the accumulation of bitcoin has contributed to their stock prices. MicroStrategy ' s share price more than doubled over the past year, while Metaplanet has tripled since the beginning of 2025. There is, however, growing concern that this model may be structurally unstable and may result in feedback loops that expose the leverage of the encrypted market.
If Bitcoin prices collapse, they can trigger large-scale sales, liquidation and market downturns.
