Scaramucci Family Backs $100M+ Round for Trump-Linked American Bitcoin

Published at 2025-11-16 11:15:09

American Bitcoin announced it raised in excess of $100 million in a funding round led by the Scaramucci family through Solari Capital, the investment vehicle run by AJ Scaramucci. The company, which has public ties to former President Donald Trump, did not disclose a full investor list or precise uses for the capital, but said the infusion will support growth and operational expansion as it scales services linked to BTC.

The move matters because it fuses high-profile political backing with fresh institutional capital for a Bitcoin-focused firm, a combination that could shape investor sentiment and media attention. Market participants may view the round as a bullish signal for demand in Bitcoin services, even as regulators and opponents scrutinize the political optics. How American Bitcoin deploys the funds will determine whether this round drives measurable product growth or simply amplifies its public profile.
