Eric Trump's Bitcoin Miner Loses $600M in Value as AI Boom Crushes Crypto Stocks
ABTC is trading near its 52-week low of $5.55 (8.8% above the low).
Summary
American Bitcoin Corp. has seen its stock crash over 95% from its peak, erasing roughly $600 million in market value from Eric Trump's 6% stake over the past 10 months. The collapse forced a 1-for-15 reverse split just days ago to maintain its Nasdaq listing, yet shares remain down 77% this year. While the company continues to accumulate Bitcoin—now holding around 8,000 BTC worth $504 million—investors are fleeing crypto miners for AI-exposed peers like Riot and MARA, whose shares have surged over 60% on average. This follows a brutal Q1 that saw an $81.8 million net loss and a $111 million ATM raise, underscoring the deepening cash burn. The shift in capital from crypto mining to AI infrastructure is accelerating, leaving ABTC increasingly isolated.
At the time of this announcement, ABTC was trading at $6.04 on NASDAQ in the Crypto Assets sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $439.7M.
