Trump Media Submits SEC Filing to Register up to $12B for Bitcoin Reserve
Trump Media is targeting up to $12 billion in capital through a sweeping SEC filing, accelerating its bitcoin acquisition strategy and positioning for massive crypto-fueled expansion.
Trump Media Seeks SEC Approval to Raise up to $12 Billion to Advance Bitcoin Holdings
Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (Nasdaq, NYSE Texas: DJT), founded and majority-owned by President Donald Trump, disclosed on June 5 that it had filed a Form S-3 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to register up to $12 billion in securities—a move that marks a major step in the company’s financing and strategic roadmap.
The universal shelf registration will allow the firm to issue a wide range of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt instruments, warrants, rights, and units. In the filing, the company stated:
The aggregate initial offering price of all securities sold by us under this prospectus will not exceed $12.0 billion.
The shelf provides broad flexibility for capital raises to support future initiatives, including mergers, acquisitions, or an At-The-Market (ATM) offering.
The registration follows Trump Media’s previously announced $2.3 billion financing through equity and debt subscription agreements involving approximately 50 investors. Proceeds from those agreements will be used to establish a corporate bitcoin reserve and support general operations. As part of its Form S-3 filing, the company is registering approximately 84.7 million shares of common stock for resale, covering 56 million equity shares and 29 million shares issuable from convertible notes.
While the company has not disclosed immediate plans to issue securities under the $12 billion shelf, it emphasized the importance of having these mechanisms available to pursue growth opportunities quickly and efficiently.
Trump Media is aligning its capital strategy with a long-term bitcoin treasury plan. “TMTG will acquire its bitcoin and bitcoin-related holdings in the amounts and on the timeline it deems optimal,” the company stated in the filing. It added
We will continue to implement our bitcoin strategy, including considering additional capital raises to purchase bitcoin and bitcoin-related products as market conditions permit.
CEO Devin Nunes characterized the registration as foundational to future expansion, asserting it provides “the capital, assets, independence, flexibility, and security we need to fulfill our goals of rapid expansion.” Despite litigation risks and market headwinds, Trump Media is positioning itself among a growing set of public companies leveraging bitcoin as a core financial asset. Trump Media is also currently seeking SEC approval to launch Truth Social Bitcoin ETF.

Circle’s 288% Spike Shocks Wall Street as CRCL Continues to Rally After IPO Debut
Since its debut on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), stablecoin issuer Circle Internet Financial’s stock, CRCL, has appreciated by more than 288%.
CRCL Skyrockets on NYSE, Crypto Social Media Chimes In
Circle Internet Financial (NYSE: CRCL) has drawn substantial investor interest, with its value climbing swiftly. Notably, Ark Invest acquired 4.48 million CRCL shares across three of its funds. The company’s public offering priced shares at $31 apiece, yet by Friday at 1:07 p.m. Eastern, shares had climbed beyond $120.51—marking a 288% gain since launch.
Circle’s 288% Spike Shocks Wall Street as CRCL Continues to Rally After IPO Debut
Circle Internet (NYSE: CRCL) on June 6, 2025.
With shares jumping over 45% on Friday alone, Circle’s market capitalization has now exceeded $23 billion. CRCL registered $41.8 million in trading volume between the market’s open and just after 1 p.m. Eastern on Friday. The previous day’s close was $82.84 per CRCL. The IPO’s momentum has triggered speculation about whether this rally signals a durable vote of investor confidence or simply echoes the kind of transient enthusiasm that fueled Coinbase’s 2021 frenzy.
Social platforms like X have buzzed with commentary on Circle’s IPO. One user, with IPO pricing experience at Goldman Sachs, cautioned against jumping in immediately following a steep climb. They emphasized that early gains are often orchestrated to generate excitement, advising patience. “Wait 90-180 days after IPO to invest,” the X account Dom suggested. “Not just to allow for price discovery, but because that’s typically when the lockup period ends,” the individual added.
Some observers now predict that Circle’s performance could spark a wave of IPOs from other crypto ventures eager to tap public markets. “After the Circle IPO performance, there is a large probability every equity business with [more than] $50m revenue and any sort of moat or edge to go public,” the X account Solana Legend wrote. “I’m talking about Moonpay, Gemini, Kraken, Phantom, etc…,” the individual added.
