American Bitcoin Corp. has announced the expansion of its Bitcoin mining operations with a new purchase of 11,298 new mining machines.
The Miami-based company said the new machines will help add about 3.05 exahash per second (EH/s) to its total computing power. This represents a 12% increase in its overall mining capacity once all the machines start operating.
With this purchase, American Bitcoin’s total fleet will grow to 89,242 miners. The company said with all this equipment, they will be able to bring a total owned hashrate to about 28.1 EH/s, operating at an average efficiency of roughly 16.0 joules per terahash (J/TH).
The newly acquired machines are more efficient, as they are approximated to run at 13.5 J/TH. They are expected to be delivered and installed in March 2026 at the company’s Drumheller site.
Eric Trump, the co-founder and chief strategy officer, said the expansion is part of a broader goal to strengthen the Bitcoin mining sector controlled by America as a whole. According to him, growing professionally managed hashrate in the United States would help secure the Bitcoin network and also support long-term growth and innovation.

Matt Prusak, president of the company, also added that every major decision is focused on increasing Bitcoin holdings. He said shareholders should expect a disciplined strategy centered on accumulation.
American Bitcoin’s Focus on Accumulating BTC
American Bitcoin describes itself as a Bitcoin accumulator rather than just any random mining company. Its strategy is built around producing Bitcoin at a cost lower than the normal market prices and holding it as part of its long-term balance sheet growth.
In the fourth quarter of 2025, the company said it mined Bitcoin at a 53% discount compared to the spot market prices. The latest fleet expansion is designed to strengthen that advantage by improving efficiency and lowering production costs.
The company also explained that some of its “owned fleet” includes all miners it has purchased, even if some are not yet active. Once the new machines are energized, its operational fleet is expected to reach 58,999 miners, delivering around 25.0 EH/s at an efficiency of 14.1 J/TH.
Despite these risks, the company says it remains focused on increasing Bitcoin holdings per share through mining operations and capital management.
