On March 2, it was reported that Trump Media & Technology Group is in talks to spin off its Truth Social platform into an independent publicly traded company. The new entity, SpinCo, plans to merge with special purpose acquisition company Texas Ventures Acquisition III, with shares to be distributed to existing shareholders. The company stated that negotiations are ongoing and no final agreement has been reached.
This spin-off follows Trump Media’s merger agreement with TAE Technologies in December last year, which was valued at over $6 billion and aims to develop utility-scale fusion power plants to supply electricity for AI data centers. The separation will allow the media and energy businesses to focus on their respective development paths.
Financial data shows that Trump Media is projected to incur a net loss of $712.3 million in 2025, up from $400.9 million in 2024. The increased loss is mainly due to unrealized losses on cryptocurrency holdings, including Bitcoin and Cronos, while net sales remained relatively flat at $3.68 million. Despite this, by the end of 2025, the company’s financial assets are estimated to be around $2.5 billion, more than three times the amount at the end of 2024.
In the cryptocurrency sector, Trump Media holds over 11,500 Bitcoin through its fintech brand Truth.Fi and has applied for multiple crypto ETFs, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Cronos funds with staking features. The Cronos ETF is closely linked with Trump Media and Yorkville Acquisition. Several ETF applications have been submitted to U.S. regulators but have not yet been approved.
Regarding energy, TAE Technologies has raised over $1 billion to develop advanced fusion technology aimed at reducing radioactive waste. After merging with Trump Media, a fusion energy-focused publicly traded company will be created, offering investors a new option beyond media.
Analysts note that despite slow user growth on Truth Social and competition from major social networks, the company’s total assets have increased significantly year-over-year, mainly driven by appreciation in crypto assets and related securities. Investors should monitor the progress of the spin-off and potential ETF approvals to assess future market opportunities.

When the Asia-Pacific stock markets hit the circuit breaker, why does Bitcoin stand out as the best?
Author: Jae, PANews
On March 4th, as the situation in the Middle East suddenly worsened, global financial markets instantly entered a "wartime state." For global investors, this was a trading day worthy of being recorded in history.
Disruption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical energy choke point, triggered a sharp surge in international oil prices. Panic quickly swept through traditional capital markets, and Asia-Pacific stock markets experienced an epic sell-off.
KOSPI in South Korea plummeted 12% in a single day, marking the largest decline in history; the Nikkei 225 dropped 3.7%, its worst performance in five months; Middle Eastern local stock markets once tumbled nearly 5% amid a correction; major European and American stock indices closed lower across the board.
However, an unusual phenomenon quietly emerged amid this sell-off.
The crypto market, often regarded as "high risk, high volatility," which tends to be the first asset class to collapse during any geopolitical crisis, surprisingly held steady this time.
