Hut 8 traded most ASIC miners for a majority stake in American Bitcoin.
American Bitcoin, formerly American Data Centers, is backed by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.
Hut 8 Corp., a Wall Street-listed Bitcoin miner, has
launched American Bitcoin Corp. The new subsidiary will focus on
industrial-scale Bitcoin mining and strategic Bitcoin reserve development.
The launch follows Hut 8’s contribution of most of its ASIC
miners in exchange for a majority stake in American Data Centers, Inc. The
company was later renamed American Bitcoin. The investor group behind American
Data Centers included Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.
Hut 8 to Support American Bitcoin Operations

“By carving out our mining business into a standalone
entity, which will raise its own capital, we align each segment of the business
with its respective cost of capital,” Asher Genoot, CEO of Hut 8.
American Bitcoin will operate under Hut 8’s Compute segment.
The results will be consolidated into Hut 8’s financial statements. Hut 8 will
provide infrastructure and operational support under long-term agreements.
These agreements will generate revenue for Hut 8’s Power and Digital
Infrastructure segments.
“The transaction creates two focused yet complementary
businesses, each purpose-built for its respective mandate. It evolves Hut 8
toward more predictable, financeable, lower-cost-of-capital segments and
establishes American Bitcoin as a pure-play mining platform built for exahash
growth, Bitcoin production, and operating leverage,” said Genoot, CEO of Hut 8.
Expanding Mining, Building Bitcoin Reserve
“By combining Hut 8’s proven operational excellence in
data centers with our shared passion for Bitcoin and decentralized finance, we
are poised to strengthen our foundation and drive significant future growth,”
said Eric Trump, Co-founder of American Bitcoin.
American Bitcoin plans to expand its mining operations and
build a strategic Bitcoin reserve. The company will leverage Hut 8’s mining
expertise and infrastructure development capabilities.
“But simply buying Bitcoin is only half the story.
Mining it on favorable economics opens an even bigger opportunity. We’re
excited to bring investors into that equation through a platform engineered to
execute on this thesis and deliver real, tangible participation in Bitcoin’s
growth,” Donald Trump Jr. added.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
