During the latest broadcast, Fox Business host Charles Payne mentioned the latest trend of Bitcoin’s institutional adoption, saying, “There’s not a lot of Bitcoin left; it sounds like the Wild West.”
While discussing the latest trend of Bitcoin acquisition with Anthony Pompliano, a prominent American entrepreneur, Charles Payne made this statement.
BTC has a limited supply of 21 million tokens, and over 94% of this supply has already been mined. A significant portion of this supply has been acquired by institutions and companies, such as Strategy.
In an interview, Anthony Pompliano said, “Now there’s a new professional sport Bitcoiners, which is who can acquire most Bitcoins.”
Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap Financial recently announced its merger with Columbus Circle Capital to focus on BTC asset management and revenue generation.
Anthony Pompliano said in an earlier post on X, “My goal with this business is to continue acquiring as much bitcoin as possible. ProCap BTC, LLC has been able to use over $500 million from its initial capital raise to purchase Bitcoin so far. The company now holds 4,950 bitcoins in total.”
“There are a number of other bitcoin treasury companies available in the market as well. I had our team pull together a comparison of some of the companies, including capital raised, bitcoin held, and the mNAV premium, based on or derived from publicly available information and incorporating certain assumptions about the identified companies, implied mNAVs, and transactions (some of which have not yet closed),” he added further.
Bitcoin’s Institutional Adoption Surges
Since the launch of the first BTC ETF in 2024, the mainstream adoption of the cryptocurrency has soared, with Wall Street’s digital gold rush intensifying. Big institutions like Strategy, MARA Holdings, Metaplanet, and others are rigorously increasing their BTC stake. Additionally, new firms are also following the footsteps of these institutions to add digital assets to their balance sheets.
For instance, Tokyo-based Metaplanet is making waves with an ambitious plan, using its massive BTC reserves to buy and overhaul traditional banks in Japan.
“We think of it as a Bitcoin gold rush,” CEO Simon Gerovich said. “We need to accumulate as much Bitcoin as we can… to get to a point where we’ve reached escape velocity and it just makes it very difficult for others to catch up.”
Amid the frenzy of BTC’s mainstream adoption and bullish momentum, the US administration’s legislative efforts to form clear regulatory guidelines are helping the overall crypto community.
At the time of writing, BTC is trading at approximately $108,825, reflecting a 92.23% increase over the past year, according to CoinMarketCap.
