    • In early December 2025, American Bitcoin Corp., a Trump-linked Bitcoin miner, faced intense volatility after a lock-up expiration allowed early pre-merger investors to sell previously restricted shares, triggering heavy trading, multiple halts, and profit-taking amid a weak backdrop for crypto-related equities.
    • Despite the turbulence and heightened scrutiny over its China-made mining rigs, company leaders emphasized their long-term commitment, continued Bitcoin accumulation, and a recent swing from a large prior-year loss to a net profit with substantially higher revenues.
    • With the recent share price rebound over one day but decline over seven days, we’ll examine how the lock-up expiration and early investor selling shape American Bitcoin’s investment narrative.

    What Is American Bitcoin's Investment Narrative?

    To own American Bitcoin after this kind of swing, you have to believe in two things at once: that its Bitcoin mining and accumulation model can turn recent revenue growth and Q3 profitability into something durable, and that you can live with extreme stock price volatility along the way. The early-December lock-up expiry put that volatility front and center, as pre-merger investors finally took profits and exposed how fragile sentiment around Trump-linked, crypto-exposed names can be. In the near term, the key catalysts still look tied to Bitcoin prices, mining efficiency and access to capital, but the episode adds a new layer: future equity unlocks and large overhangs may become events in their own right. It also sharpens existing risks around governance, dilution, and ongoing scrutiny of its China-made rigs.

    But the bigger concern is what future share unlocks might mean for existing holders. Despite retreating, American Bitcoin's shares might still be trading 20% above their fair value. Discover the potential downside here.
