Eric Trump's American Bitcoin Crashes 95%, $600M Wiped Out
ABTC is trading near its 52-week low of $5.55 (10% above the low).
Summary
American Bitcoin Corp., co-founded by Eric Trump, has seen its stock plummet over 95% from its peak, erasing more than $600 million in market value. The decline follows a 1-for-15 reverse stock split completed on July 6 to maintain Nasdaq listing requirements. The company continues its bitcoin accumulation strategy, recently adding 500 BTC to reach over 8,000 BTC in reserves. However, Q1 results revealed a $118.2 million operating loss, driven by a $117.2 million impairment on bitcoin holdings amid falling prices. This adds to a pattern of heavy losses and dilution, with the company reporting an $81.8 million net loss in Q1 and raising $111 million via ATM offerings. The stock hit a record low this week, and with bitcoin price volatility persisting, further downside risk remains.
At the time of this announcement, ABTC was trading at $6.13 on NASDAQ in the Crypto Assets sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $446.4M.
