In 2025, Bitcoin corporate holdings soar past 1.3 million! River: The driving force of the bull run has changed to companies.

The Bitcoin (BTC) bull run of 2025 is quietly shifting its driving force. According to the latest report from River Financial, corporations are rapidly becoming the core buyers in the market, currently holding over 6% of the total Bitcoin supply, with holdings reaching as high as 1.3 million BTC—a 21-fold increase from 2020. This influx of corporate capital is rewriting the market structure and price movement of Bitcoin.

Corporate funding inflow: In 2025, it has exceeded 12.5 billion USD compared to the same period last year

The report shows that in the first eight months of 2025, the funds flowing into Bitcoin from enterprises were 1.25 billion USD more than the same period last year.

Enterprise Holdings Ratio: 6%+ (1.3 million BTC)

Personal Holdings Ratio: 65.9%

Other holders: funds, governments, and other institutions

Among them, the Bitcoin asset management company established specifically for storing large-scale Bitcoin reserves has accounted for 76% of the purchase volume since January 2024, managing assets exceeding 100 billion dollars, covering stocks, bonds, and Bitcoin-related securities.

From Technology to Traditional Industries: Bitcoin Penetrates Diverse Sectors

River pointed out that the corporate adoption of Bitcoin has already broken through the native crypto circle, with companies in traditional industries such as real estate, healthcare, construction, and software also actively allocating BTC.

Currently, there are 3,000 businesses in the United States using River's services, most of which are small and medium-sized enterprises with fewer than 50 employees. These companies often use a large portion of their revenue to buy Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and risks in the banking system.

Change in Corporate Investment Strategy

Data shows:

1. On average, each company will invest 22% of its net profits into Bitcoin.

2. Nearly one-third of companies will invest over 50% of their funds into BTC.

River attributes this trend to:

Fixed supply: Bitcoin has a hard cap of 21 million coins.

24/7 Liquidity: Continuous trading worldwide

Reduce counterparty risk: especially after the recent wave of bank failures.

Accounting and Regulatory Reform: The 2024 GAAP update allows Bitcoin to be valued at market price, eliminating barriers in financial reporting.

Policy Support: Bitcoin Legitimacy Significantly Enhanced

The U.S. government established a strategic Bitcoin reserve in 2025, and Texas and New Hampshire also passed laws to create state-level BTC reserves, further consolidating Bitcoin's legitimate status and confidence in the business world.

Future Outlook: Bitcoin May Become Standard on Corporate Balance Sheets

Despite the rapid rise, less than 1% of companies globally hold Bitcoin. River believes that the biggest obstacle is the lack of public awareness, as many corporate executives lack a basic understanding of Bitcoin.

However, as more companies disclose their financial strategies, Bitcoin is expected to become a "must-have item" on corporate balance sheets.

River Summary: "We believe that every company will eventually hold Bitcoin on their balance sheet, but will still spend in dollars for the foreseeable future."

Conclusion

The Bitcoin bull run in 2025 is no longer just a stage for retail investors and crypto-native institutions. As the proportion of corporate Holdings continues to rise and the policy and accounting environment continues to improve, Bitcoin is accelerating towards mainstream asset status. For investors, this not only means stronger price support but also heralds a deeper structural transformation in the Bitcoin market.
