35 companies now hold at least 1,000 Bitcoin as corporate adoption booms
Corporate adoption of Bitcoin is accelerating, with 35 publicly traded companies now holding at least 1,000 BTC each, signaling growing institutional interest in the world's largest cryptocurrency. Demand for Bitcoin is soaring among public companies four months after US President Donald Trump's executive order outlined the creation of a federal Bitcoin reserve for the world's largest economy. According to Chris Kuiper, vice president of research at Fidelity Digital Assets, at least 35 public companies have now surpassed 1,000 BTC in holdings on their balance sheets, worth more than $116 billion at the time of writing, up from 24 companies at the end of Q1. The growing Bitcoin-holding companies signal a 'notable increase in Bitcoin exposure,' said Kuiper in a Thursday X post. 'Bitcoin purchases became more widely distributed across public companies rather than concentrated among a few large buyers,' he added. Fidelity's data was published shortly after Bitcoin flipped Amazon's $2.3 trillion market capitalization to become the world's fifth-largest asset by total valuation, Cointelegraph reported on July 14. Following the new wave of institutional buying, over 278 public entities are now holding Bitcoin, up from 124 just weeks ago, according to The US leads all countries with 94 public entities holding Bitcoin, followed by Canada with 40 and the UK with 19 public BTC holding entities. Corporate Bitcoin investments rise 35% in Q3 2025 The growing institutional accumulation saw total Bitcoin purchases increase 35% quarter-on-quarter, from 99,857 BTC in the first quarter of 2025 to 134,456 BTC in the second quarter. 'Not only did the total purchases increase from Q1 to Q2 of 2025 […], but there are a lot more companies doing the buying,' said Fidelity's Kuiper. Bitcoin's open interest, which is near record levels, also points to growing institutional engagement, according to Iliya Kalchev, dispatch analyst at digital asset platform Nexo. 'Open interest in Bitcoin futures remains elevated above $45 billion, just shy of its historical peak, pointing to continued institutional engagement and speculative leverage,' the analyst told Cointelegraph, adding that the 'short-term trend remains sideways, but positioning suggests markets are bracing for a pivotal stretch.'

ENEC, Westinghouse ink MoU to accelerate nuclear energy deployment in US
Image: Supplied The Emirates Nuclear Energy Company (ENEC) and US-based Westinghouse Electric Company have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore the deployment of advanced nuclear technologies in the United States, the companies said. The agreement, signed in Washington, DC, aims to support the expansion of nuclear power in the US, in line with federal ambitions to quadruple the country's nuclear capacity by 2050. It comes as the US seeks to meet growing electricity demand driven by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and data center expansion. Supporting US plans to quadruple nuclear capacity Under the terms of the MoU, ENEC and Westinghouse will explore opportunities to accelerate the rollout of Westinghouse's AP1000 reactors. The companies also plan to collaborate on US nuclear new build and restart projects, reactor deployment models, fuel supply chain cooperation, and operations and maintenance. ENEC touts Barakah experience as model 'This marks a significant step in supporting the United States' bold ambitions to rapidly expand its nuclear fleet,' said Mohamed Al Hammadi, CEO of ENEC. 'With The AP1000 is currently the only large modular reactor design fully licensed and ready for construction in the U.S., according to Westinghouse. Interim CEO Dan Sumner said the company is working with partners to meet a federal target of having 10 new large-scale reactors under construction by 2030. 'A fleet of AP1000 reactors would generate billions in direct economic impact and create tens of thousands of skilled jobs,' Sumner said. 'ENEC's expertise in nuclear deployment is a valuable asset to this goal.' The partnership also aligns with ENEC's international strategy to export nuclear development expertise gained from the Barakah Nuclear Energy Plant in the UAE, which is now fully operational and supplies approximately 25 per cent of the country's ENEC is pursuing global opportunities through its ADVANCE programme, which includes an interest in small modular and advanced reactor technologies. Westinghouse, which built the world's first commercial pressurized water reactor in 1957, is involved in about half of the world's operating nuclear plants. Financial details of the agreement were not disclosed.
