Today, market analyst CryptoQuant listed the top public Bitcoin companies have played a central role in Bitcoin’s narrative, mainly because of their double function as publicly traded companies and as pioneering institutional Bitcoin holders. Bitcoin is currently in the bear market, indicated by its fall by over 20% from its recent ATH. Despite the downtrend, corporations like Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy, Tesla, MetaPlanet, and others) hold billions of dollars in BTC in their financial treasuries, attracting interest from retail investors, investment funds, and international index providers. However, with company stocks of these organizations currently down by more than 40%, the ongoing crypto market volatility has triggered two divergent narratives about these institutions’ Bitcoin strategies and their possible impact on BTC. Public Bitcoin Companies.Examples:– MicroStrategy, holding 649,870 BTC worth over $48.3B.– Tesla, which accumulated Bitcoin during the 2021 bull run and still holds 11,509.3 BTC.– Metaplanet, a new Bitcoin treasury company this cycle, now holding 30,823 BTC. pic.twitter.com/351TPTGidY— CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) November 30, 2025 Corporate Bitcoin Holding in November 2025 On-chain metrics revealed that in the past week, eight of the leading 100 public companies with the biggest BTC holdings have added more tokens to their Bitcoin balance sheets. Data shows that only one firm has decreased its holdings, as per BitcoinTreasuries.NET metrics reported yesterday, November 30, 2025. Currently, Bitcoin holding companies cumulatively hold 1,058,743 BTC tokens, a trend that shows continued appetite for Bitcoin accumulation among prominent institutions. For several years, the idea that a publicly listed firm could purchase Bitcoin in its balance sheet was considered absurd. The leading virtual currency was viewed as too volatile to be adopted by any forward-looking company. That taboo has been successfully challenged by several major corporations accumulating BTC in recent years. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) opened the way for institutional Bitcoin adoption when it purchased $425 million in Bitcoin in September 2020. The company, which has been buying Bitcoin regularly, currently holds 649,870 BTC tokens worth over $48.3 billion. Other serious corporations emulated the move. Bitcoin mining company, Marathon Holdings Inc., is currently the second-largest Bitcoin holder, with 50,639 BTC (worth $5.5 billion) in its balance sheet. Third on the list is Twenty-One Capital, a Bitcoin treasury firm, which currently holds 43,514 BTC valued at $4.7 billion in its corporate treasury. Among the top 10 Bitcoin-holding companies include MetaPlanet (currently holds 30,823 BTC), Tesla (currently holds 11,509.3 BTC), and others, as illustrated by CryptoQuant. Companies Adjust Holding and Effect on BTC Price According to the fresh data above, the total amount of Bitcoin held by publicly-listed firms continues to increase. As of today, November 30, 2025, public companies collectively hold 1,058,743 BTC, an increase from 1,000,019 BTC noted on September 4, 2025. This means that as Bitcoin continues to perform better than fiat currencies worldwide, market analysts expect more corporations to enter the market, purchase and hold Bitcoin, and, as a result, drive the BTC price up. Bitcoin, which currently trades at $91,450.40, has been down 17.1% and 5.0% over the past month and year, respectively, showing bearishness in the market.

Google's AP2 protocol has been released. Does encrypted AI still have a chance?
Following the MCP and A2A protocols, the AI Agent market has seen another blockbuster arrival: the Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), developed by Google. This will clearly further enhance AI Agents' autonomous multi-tasking capabilities, but the unfortunate reality is that it has little to do with web3AI. Let's take a closer look: What problem does AP2 solve? Simply put, the MCP protocol is like a universal hook, enabling AI agents to connect to various external tools and data sources; A2A is a team collaboration communication protocol that allows multiple AI agents to cooperate with each other to complete complex tasks; AP2 completes the last piece of the puzzle - payment capability. In other words, MCP opens up connectivity, A2A promotes collaboration efficiency, and AP2 achieves value exchange. The arrival of AP2 truly injects "soul" into the autonomous collaboration and task execution of Multi-Agents. Imagine AI Agents connecting Qunar, Meituan, and Didi to complete the booking of flights, hotels, and car rentals, but then getting stuck at the point of "self-payment." What's the point of all that multitasking? So, remember this: AP2 is an extension of MCP+A2A, solving the last mile problem of AI Agent automated execution. What are the technical highlights of AP2? The core innovation of AP2 is the Mandates mechanism, which is divided into real-time authorization mode and delegated authorization mode. Real-time authorization is easy to understand. The AI Agent finds the product and shows it to you. The operation can only be performed after the user signs. Delegated authorization requires the user to set rules in advance, such as only buying the iPhone 17 when the price drops to 5,000. The AI Agent monitors the trigger conditions and executes automatically. The implementation logic is cryptographically signed using Verifiable Credentials (VCs). Users can set complex commission conditions, including price ranges, time limits, and payment method priorities, forming a tamper-proof digital contract. Once signed, the AI Agent executes according to the conditions, with VCs ensuring auditability and security at every step. Of particular note is the "A2A x402" extension, a technical component developed by Google specifically for crypto payments, developed in collaboration with Coinbase and the Ethereum Foundation. This extension enables AI Agents to seamlessly process stablecoins, ETH, and other blockchain assets, supporting native payment scenarios within the Web3 ecosystem. What kind of imagination space can AP2 bring? After analyzing the technical principles, do you think that's it? Yes, in fact, the AP2 is boring when it is disassembled alone. Its real charm lies in connecting and opening up the "MCP+A2A+AP2" technology stack, completely opening up the complete link of AI Agent's autonomous analysis+execution+payment. From now on, AI Agents can open up many application scenarios. For example, AI Agents for stock investment and financial management can help us monitor the market 24/7 and conduct independent transactions. Enterprise procurement AI Agents can automatically replenish and renew without human intervention. AP2's complementary payment capabilities will further expand the penetration of the Agent-to-Agent economy into more scenarios. Google obviously understands that after the technical framework is established, the ecological implementation must be relied upon, so it has brought in more than 60 partners to develop it, almost covering the entire payment and business ecosystem. Interestingly, it also involves major Crypto players such as Ethereum, Coinbase, MetaMask, and Sui. Combined with the current trend of currency and stock integration, the imagination space has been doubled. Is web3 AI really dead? Not entirely. Google's AP2 looks complete, but it only achieves technical compatibility with Crypto payments. It can only be regarded as an extension of the traditional authorization framework and belongs to the category of automated execution. There is a "paradigm" difference between it and the autonomous asset management pursued by pure Crypto native solutions. The Crypto-native solutions under exploration are taking the "decentralized custody + on-chain verification" route, including AI Agent autonomous asset management, AI Agent autonomous transactions (DeFAI), AI Agent digital identity and on-chain reputation system (ERC-8004...), AI Agent on-chain governance DAO framework, AI Agent NPC and digital avatars, and many other interesting and fun directions. Ultimately, once users get used to AI Agent payments in traditional fields, their acceptance of AI Agents autonomously owning digital assets will also increase. And for those scenarios that AP2 cannot reach, such as anonymous transactions, censorship-resistant payments, and decentralized asset management, there will always be a time for crypto-native solutions to show their strength? The two are more likely to be complementary rather than competitive, but to be honest, the key technological advancements behind AI Agents currently all come from web2AI, and web3AI still needs to keep up the good work!
