Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) posted a net loss of about $54.8 million for the quarter, and that shortfall was driven in part by write-downs tied to its digital-asset holdings. According to company disclosures, the firm holds a sizable bitcoin stash that has swung in value and helped turn trading swings into headline losses.
Bitcoin Strategy And The Loss
Reports have disclosed that TMTG’s bitcoin holdings were listed at more than 11,500 BTC in one filing, putting the holding value above $1.3 billion depending on the market price at reporting.
Earlier statements by the company put combined bitcoin and related securities near $2 billion. The result: big paper gains when prices rose, and big mark-to-market losses when they fell.
The company also reported about $15.3 million in income from bitcoin-related option premiums during the quarter, but that was not enough to offset the revaluations that showed up in its books.

The company framed the purchases as a move to diversify its treasury. Based on reports, the bitcoin position has become a dominant feature of the company’s balance sheet. That matters because this is not a giant, well-capitalized media group with steady cash flows.
Revenue for the period remained small compared with the bitcoin bet, which magnifies how much the crypto holdings move the company’s financial picture.
Holdings And Valuation
Investors and analysts have zeroed in on timing and entry prices. According to filings and market coverage, TMTG made large purchases over months, but exact buy dates and price points were not fully broken out, leaving room for debate about how much of the loss is unrealized and how much was realized. Some coverage linked part of the loss to changes in the market price of bitcoin between purchase and reporting dates.
Using bitcoin as collateral or for financing also adds layers of risk. Reports indicate the firm has used portions of its holdings in financing arrangements, which could force sales or additional write-downs if market conditions worsen. That kind of leverage was highlighted by market watchers as a key risk for a company whose core business is still quite small.
Optimistic Stance
Despite the challenges, Devin Nunes, the CEO and president of Trump Media, said the third quarter was an important period for the company’s growth. He added that they’ve strengthened their financial position with a large Bitcoin reserve and continued to build on their existing platforms.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that’s not just a metaphor, it’s a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.
Christian’s journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).
Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling – right up his alley!
So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he’s one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).
Think Christian’s all work and no play? Not a chance! When he’s not at his computer, you’ll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.
Speaking of chill, Christian’s got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.
Here’s the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day – and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.
Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors – and bosses – he deeply respects.
So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
