August 31, 2025

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has added considerable Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) exposure to her investment portfolio in 2025, making strategic purchases into iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ:IBIT).

Greene’s Bitcoin ETF Gambit

The GOP lawmaker first tossed somewhere between $1,000 – $15,000 into the ETF on Jan. 8, according to the Benzinga Government Trades page, ahead of President Donald Trump's inauguration. The stock rose 13% over the next two weeks.

Greene doubled up in March, purchasing between $15,000 – $50,000 worth of IBIT shares just three days before Trump's announcement for a planned Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Unlike last time, the ETH shares fell 8% over the next week.

According to Benzinga, Greene’s IBIT stake is up 10.2% as of this writing, better than her 2.4% return from Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD).

Overall, the Congressperson gained 2.80% on average over the last year, lower than the S&P 500. As of this writing, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:GS) and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) were among the top performers in her portfolio, netting 76% and 57.7%, respectively.

Furthermore, Sen. David McCormick (R-Pa.), who made several purchases of Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (NYSE:BITB) in 2025, enjoyed an unrealized profit of 25.60% as of this writing.

Price Action: At the time of writing, BTC was exchanging hands at $111,220.37, down 1.49% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro. Year-to-date, the coin has rallied 18%.

Shares of IBIT ETF rose 0.57% after-hours after closing 0.11% lower at $63.58 on Wednesday. Year-to-date, the stock has gained 19.76%.
