Which countries secretly own the most Bitcoin — beyond the US and China
In 2025, governments hold over 463,000 BTC, with the US and China leading, while countries like Bhutan, Iran and the UK quietly build strategic reserves.
Roughly 463,000 BTC — or about 2.3% of Bitcoin’s total supply — is currently held by governments around the world, according to publicly available blockchain data and legal disclosures.
While that might sound like a small percentage, it equates to tens of billions of dollars in sovereign Bitcoin wealth, giving Bitcoin (BTC) a growing role in national asset strategies and state-level accumulation.
