SEC has approved Trump Media’s Bitcoin Treasury registration

Trump Leads Public Crypto Surge with Bitcoin Treasury

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved the registration of Trump Media and Technology Group's (DJT.O) bitcoin treasury agreement effective, the company announced on Friday. The agency has therefore given the Presidents-supported business permission to put in place a Bitcoin treasury plan. According to the company, this move is in line with its larger expansion plan, which includes raising a significant amount of money through one of the biggest bitcoin treasury projects ever carried out by a publicly traded corporation. A definitive prospectus detailing the terms for the resale of the transaction's securities was submitted concurrently by the company.

“We’re aggressively implementing our plans to expand the Company, our offerings, and our capabilities. By simultaneously enhancing and growing our social media platform, TV streaming platform, and our FinTech brand while establishing a BTC treasury, we aim to continue rapidly transforming Trump Media into an indispensable company for the expanding customer base of the Patriot Economy,” Devin Nunes, Trump Media’s CEO and President, noted 

The Registration Statement registers for resale by the investors the approximately 56 million shares of equity and 29 million shares of convertible notes that are underlying the previously disclosed debt and equity agreements with roughly fifty investors that generated approximately $2.3 billion in total proceeds—one of the largest BTC treasury deals for a public company. This is in accordance with the Company's obligations arising from those agreements.

The Significance of Trump Media's Bitcoin Treasury Bid Approval

The company's embrace of BTC is a significant indication that the US will support the cryptocurrency sector going forward. In order to ensure that a transparent crypto regulatory environment is put into place as soon as feasible, the SEC and Congress have been working together. As a result, more institutional investors will decide to use Bitcoin as a hedge against excessive inflation. 

The supply vs. demand shock, which has propelled the BTC boom over the past year, will ultimately be further stressed by the growing demand for the cryptocurrency. According to technical analysis, institutional investors and well-defined regulatory frameworks will drive a parabolic increase in the price of bitcoin before the year is out.

Trump claims to have earned over $600 million from golf, cryptocurrency, and licence fees.

US President's annual financial disclosure report revealed that he earned over $600 million from various ventures, including crypto, golf clubs, and licensing. The report, which covers the 2024 calendar year, shows his significant investment in crypto but also reported large fees from developments and revenues from other businesses. The president's assets total at least $1.6 billion. Although he has put his businesses into a trust managed by his children, the disclosures reveal that income from these sources still accrues to the president, which has raised questions about potential conflicts of interest.

Some of President's businesses in areas like crypto benefit from U.S. policy shifts and have become a source of criticism. The filing is a time capsule of the family's ventures, capturing a period when the family was just starting to get into crypto but still primarily focused on real estate and golf clubs. The Trump family also earned over $400 million from World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance company, and held 15.75 billion governance tokens in the venture.

The move may boost institutional Bitcoin adoption in the Crypto World

The approval of Trump Media's BTC Treasury Bid signifies the US's commitment to supporting the cryptocurrency industry, with the SEC and Congress working to establish a clear regulatory landscape. This adoption of Bitcoin by Trump-backed companies is expected to attract more institutional investors to hedge against inflation.

Currently, 235 institutional investors hold over 3.4 million BTCs in their treasury accounts. The rising demand for digital currency will further stress the supply vs demand shock, leading to a parabolic rally before the end of this year. GameStop and Strategy are adding cryptocurrencies to their balance sheets to capitalize on rising token prices as the Trump administration embraces digital assets.
