Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan predicts a significant rise in corporate Bitcoin holdings, estimating over $9 billion in BTC by 2025. This projection highlights a growing trend among Fortune 500 companies integrating Bitcoin into their financial strategies.
Corporate adoption of Bitcoin has accelerated in recent quarters. According to Bitwise, companies added a record 159,107 BTC to their treasuries in Q2 2025, bringing total corporate holdings to over 847,000 BTC—approximately 4% of Bitcoin’s capped supply. This surge reflects a 23% increase from the previous quarter, with holdings valued at $91 billion based on a closing price of $107,754 per BTC.
“Bitcoin is becoming digital gold for corporate treasuries,” said Hougan. “With institutional demand meeting limited supply, we’re witnessing a structural shift in how companies manage capital.”
The influx of corporate capital into Bitcoin is reshaping the cryptocurrency landscape. Hougan’s forecast of a $200,000 BTC price by the end of 2025 underscores the potential impact of institutional adoption on asset valuation. Factors such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s new guidelines and favorable regulatory environments are further encouraging corporate investment.
As more companies integrate Bitcoin into their balance sheets, the cryptocurrency’s role as a mainstream treasury asset is solidifying. This trend not only enhances Bitcoin’s legitimacy but also contributes to its long-term value proposition.
