Bitcoin Treasury Firm Strategy Pledges $250 a Year to Employee Trump Accounts

Bitcoin treasury company Strategy has said it will contribute to Trump Accounts for the children of its U.S. employees, becoming the latest major public company to layer corporate money on top of the federal savings program.

The Tysons Corner, Virginia-based company (Nasdaq: MSTR) announced it will deposit $250 annually into a Trump Account for every eligible child under 18 of a U.S. employee, regardless of when the child was born. 

For children born on or after January 1, 2025, Strategy will also make a one-time $1,000 contribution in the child’s birth year, matching the seed deposit the U.S. Treasury provides to newborns under the program.

A strong financial future starts early. Strategy has joined the Invest America Business Pledge and will match the @USTreasury‘s $1,000 @TrumpAccounts contribution for newborns of U.S. employees, plus contribute $250 annually for each eligible child.https://t.co/erz3oPkikP

“Trump Accounts and the Invest America initiative can help build a stronger financial future for America’s children,” Phong Le, Strategy’s president and chief executive officer, said in a statement, adding that the accounts can encourage “financial education, long term thinking, and a culture of saving and investing from an early age” — goals he described as closely aligned with Strategy’s values.

Trump Accounts, created under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that Trump signed in 2025 and referred to in Treasury guidance as 530A accounts, launched July 4, 2026. Each is a tax-advantaged investment account for a child. 

On July 4, the government deposited one-time $1,000 seed contributions into accounts for more than 500,000 children. Children born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028, who are U.S. citizens qualify for that federal deposit, and families can contribute up to $5,000 a year. Funds are locked until age 18, when the account converts to a traditional individual retirement account.

In a July oval office event marking the launch of the accounts, President Trump said that Bitcoin could one day play a role in the new Trump Accounts savings program. 

The president campaigned on a ticket to help the space and received major backing from digital asset entrepreneurs. Since taking office, Trump has passed a number of pro-crypto pieces of legislation.
