The pump has also benefitted other major Bitcoin holders.
Bhutan’s Bitcoin holdings exceeded $1 billion, according to blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence.
Bhutan has been constructing a large-scale Bitcoin mining operation and is seemingly using Bitcoin as a strategic currency reserve.
The country’s Bitcoin holdings account for 32% of its $3.15 billion gross domestic product, according to the International Monetary Fund, citing data from October 2024.

The Central American country is up 80% on its Bitcoin investment with almost $214 million in unrealized profits.
But it hasn’t always been smooth sailing.
