Publicly listed companies worldwide are projected to invest up to $330 billion in Bitcoin over the next five years according to a report by Bernstein analysts. This follows significant success by Strategy previously MicroStrategy which aggressively accumulated approximately 555,450 bitcoins accounting for over 2.6% of the cryptocurrency’s total supply. The firm’s innovative financial strategies boosted its holdings to nearly $38 billion inspiring other corporations to consider similar moves.

Institutional adoption is expected to expand further after recent regulatory shifts in the United States. President Donald Trump’s executive order creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve using seized crypto assets marks a significant step toward mainstream acceptance. The Securities and Exchange Commission has also cleared paths for banks to custody cryptocurrencies by removing restrictions previously hindering growth.

Bernstein highlights that larger corporations could collectively allocate about $190 billion to Bitcoin while smaller companies might contribute an additional $11 billion by 2026. Analysts anticipate regulatory clarity driven by the US could prompt broader international corporate adoption of Bitcoin as a key treasury asset.
