Bitcoin treasury company registers 93% of shares for resale and puts third of its crypto into options

USBC has registered a block of already-issued shares equal to almost its entire outstanding common stock for potential resale, creating a potential market overhang alongside a balance sheet that relies heavily on Bitcoin.

The companyโ€™s August 27 amended preliminary prospectus covers up to 359,815,000 shares held by selling stockholders. That equals about 92.7% of the 388,144,429 common shares outstanding as of August 24. USBC would receive no proceeds from any sale or other disposition by those holders.

No transaction is disclosed. The covered shares already exist, and the selling stockholders may dispose of all, some or none of them. The filing creates a route to market for a very large ownership block while leaving the current share count and control position unchanged until transactions occur.

Most of the covered shares belong to Goldeneye 1995 LLC. USBC issued Goldeneye approximately 357.8 million shares in August 2025 in exchange for 1,000 BTC and $15 million in cash. Another 2 million registered shares are held by J3E2A2Z LP.
