Eric Trump's American Bitcoin Expands Mining By 12% But ABTC Plunges 7% - American Bitcoin (NASDAQ:ABTC)

American Bitcoin is increasing mining capacity by 12%, adding 3.05 EH/s or 0.3% of global hashrate with 11,298 new ASIC rigs to boost BTC production and revenue.

  • On Tuesday, American Bitcoin announced it purchased 11,298 ASIC miners to expand its fleet by about 12%, with deployment scheduled for March 2026 at Drumheller, Alberta.
  • Facing an industry shift toward AI, ABTC is doubling down on bitcoin mining, focusing on accumulating Bitcoin below spot prices and growing American-owned hashrate, Eric Trump said.
  • Technically, the new ASIC miners outpace the fleet average efficiency , adding about 0.3% global hashrate and producing roughly 42 BTC monthly, worth around $2.9 million at a Bitcoin price near $68,000.
  • Breaking below support, ABTC shares fell to $0.99 in Tuesday trading, plunging 7% below $1 and trading under the lower Bollinger Band at $0.8844, raising delisting risks.
  • This positions American Bitcoin as roughly half the size of industry leaders operating around 50 EH/s, with plans to run 58,999 miners at roughly 25 EH/s once fully operational.
