The Trump-backed Bitcoin miner, American Bitcoin Corp. (NASDAQ: ABTC), has today revealed a 159% year-on-year (YoY) revenue upsurge in its Q4, 2025 earnings report. The company also saw a 22% quarter-on-quarter increase in revenue to $78.3 million, just 6 months after its debut on the US stock markets.
The firm’s Bitcoin holdings have risen by over 60% to a current stash of 6,235+ BTC, making it the 17th largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder worldwide.

Despite the news, American Bitcoin stock was trading at $1.015 at press time, having declined 3.33% in the past day, and an overall 75.8% year-to-date. Meanwhile, WLFI token was trading at $0.1165, down 26.14% in the past month.
This is a reflection of its $59.5 million net loss due to recent crypto market volatility. ABTC is also moving in tandem with the greater US stock market, which has seen a recent downturn after Nvidia failed to meet investor expectations in its latest earnings report.
The controversy behind American Bitcoin and WLFI
American Bitcoin and the DeFi protocol World Liberty Financial (WLFI) are both co-founded by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., while their father, President Donald Trump, is named Chief Crypto Advocate.
The pair has increasingly come under public scrutiny for security breaches, ethical compliance, and conflicting interests.
Hackers have allegedly used co-founder accounts and the Trump campaign website multiple times for market manipulation and fake token promotion.
Additionally, the Trump family makes 10X their real estate income from WLFI alone, something that critics say blurs the lines between the presidency and personal business.
In 2025, the US Senate launched an investigation into WLFI token transfers to Iran, Russia, the North Korean hacker entity Lazarus Group, and crypto mixer Tornado.
When compared to other crypto ventures, WLFI takes a more centralized approach by capping public voting rights, performing random Treasury reshuffles, and freezing wallets it considers disdainful.
Additionally, Trump’s pardoning of major crypto players and donors like Binance’s CZ and Crypto.com has fueled corruption rumors. His reduction of regulatory oversight in the crypto industry, while allegedly using taxpayers’money to fund volatile crypto ventures, are actions viewed as economically damaging by critics.
