At the same time, investment products such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs) picked up an average of 1,430 BTC daily. Governments, though purchasing in smaller volumes, still brought in around 39 BTC per day.
In contrast, miners are currently producing about 450 BTC per day. This gap between the rate of new coins entering the market and the rate at which they are being bought raises concerns about a possible supply strain, especially if this trend continues and fewer coins remain available on exchanges.
River also examined the amount of Bitcoin companies currently hold. In the second quarter of 2025 alone, treasury firms added 159,107 BTC to their balances. If combined, businesses are now estimated to have around 1.3 million BTC.
Among the largest holders is Strategy, led by Michael Saylor. According to BitcoinTreasuries, the firm currently holds 632,457 BTC in its reserves, which makes it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin.
