Part 2/12:

Among the giants, MEA Holdings stands out, having mined since 2020 and accumulating over 53,250 BTC—making it the second-largest publicly traded company holding BTC after Strategy. Although MEA held onto most of its BTC through 2024's bullish markets, September and October brought sales of around 1,006 BTC combined, possibly to realize profits or cover operational costs.

Other prominent players include:

• Riot Platforms (since 2017), with over 19,324 BTC. Since Q2 2025, Riot has been actively selling BTC, totaling nearly 3,000 BTC sold so far, primarily to meet financial needs.
