Grayscale Launches Bitcoin (BTC) Adopters ETF Targeting Companies Holding Bitcoin Treasuries

Asset manager Grayscale has launched the Grayscale Bitcoin Adopters exchange-traded fund (ETF), an investment vehicle that tracks companies employing a Bitcoin (BTC) treasury, or holding strategy.

According to an April 30 announcement, the ETF will provide exposure to companies across seven business sectors, including Bitcoin mining firms, automotive companies, and energy.

Some of the most notable firms in the ETF include Michael Saylor’s Strategy, mining company MARA, automotive manufacturer Tesla, BTC treasury company Metaplanet, and aerospace energy firm KULR Technology Group.

Grayscale’s Bitcoin Adopters ETF highlights the growing trend of Bitcoin acquisition companies using the scarce digital asset to drive up shareholder prices and to protect their corporate financial reserves against the inflation inherent in fiat currencies.

Bitcoin treasury companies and the effect on BTC markets

Blockstream CEO Adam Back recently wrote that Bitcoin treasury companies will cause BTC to surge to a $200 billion market capitalization in the coming years.

According to the CEO, companies adopting BTC are "front-running" market participants in their early bet that hyperbitcoinization — a reference to a point where BTC becomes the dominant store of value — will happen.

Fidelity Digital Assets released metrics suggesting that the supply of BTC on exchanges is dwindling due to heightened buying pressure from companies like Strategy that regularly acquire Bitcoin for their corporate reserves.

"Public Companies have bought over 30,000 bitcoin per month so far in 2025," Fidelity Digital Assets wrote in an April 24 X post.

Michael Saylor’s Strategy is currently the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, outside of crypto exchange companies like Coinbase, and continues accumulating BTC regularly.

Adam Livingston, the author of "The Bitcoin Age and The Great Harvest," said that Strategy’s aggressive BTC buying is synthetically halving the newly minted BTC supply.

Livingston added that institutions like Strategy are purchasing an average of 2,087 BTC per day, dwarfing the daily output of miners, who collectively produce around 450 BTC per day.

The rapid accumulation of BTC by institutions outpacing miner output should create a supply crunch that will drive the price of Bitcoin to heights unaffordable for most retail investors, Livingston concluded.
