According to OWNB ETF's website, more than 70 public companies collectively hold 650,000+ bitcoin as of March 2025. This market resolves based on the number of public companies holding at least 1,000 bitcoin on their balance sheets as of May 31, 2025, as reported by Bitwise Asset Management on the OWNB ETF website (https://ownbetf.com/) or in their official communications.

Background

As of March 2025, Bitwise Asset Management reports that over 70 public companies collectively hold more than 650,000 bitcoin on their balance sheets, with each of these companies holding at least 1,000 bitcoin. Bitwise tracks this data for their OWNB ETF (Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF), which invests in companies that hold significant bitcoin reserves.

The trend of companies adding bitcoin to their balance sheets began gaining significant momentum in 2020-2021, led by MicroStrategy, Tesla, and others. This corporate adoption has continued to evolve as bitcoin has become more mainstream as a treasury asset.

Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve based on the number of public companies holding at least 1,000 bitcoin on their balance sheets as of May 31, 2025, according to:

  • Official data published on the OWNB ETF website (https://ownbetf.com/)

  • OR official communications from Bitwise Asset Management regarding the OWNB ETF holdings

If Bitwise reports a range rather than a specific number, the market will resolve to the answer choice that contains the midpoint of the range. If the exact number falls on the boundary between two answer choices (e.g., exactly 90 companies), the market will resolve to the lower range (in this example, "81-90").

Considerations

  • The number of companies holding bitcoin can change due to various factors including new companies acquiring bitcoin, existing holders increasing or decreasing their positions, mergers and acquisitions, or companies going private.

  • Bitwise's methodology for tracking bitcoin holdings relies on public disclosures, which may have some lag time or incomplete information.

  • If Bitwise Asset Management ceases to track this data or the OWNB ETF is discontinued before May 31, 2025, alternative authoritative sources may be used for resolution.
