A Bitcoin mining company backed by two of President Donald Trump’s sons is set to hit the public markets. American Bitcoin will begin trading Wednesday on the Nasdaq under the ticker ABTC. It’s the latest crypto offering from the Trump family, which has backed a sprawling array of public companies linked to digital assets.

American Bitcoin is a joint venture between Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Hut 8, another Bitcoin mining firm. To create the Trump-backed Bitcoin mining company, Hut 8 contributed the vast majority of its Bitcoin mining ASICs, or specially designed computer chips, in exchange for 80% of the new company’s stock. Hut 8 will focus its remaining operations on building out its data center business, which includes hosting computer chips to power AI.
