In the first quarter, Block acquired an additional 114 bitcoins, valued at approximately $76,610.60, bringing its total corporate bitcoin holdings to nearly 9,000, which is equivalent to around $691 million, as indicated by a publicly accessible proof-of-reserves dashboard. This represents an increase from the 8,883 BTC held at the end of the previous year. When including the 19,357 BTC managed on behalf of clients, the company, co-founded by Jack Dorsey, the former CEO of Twitter, has a total of 28,354 BTC under its care, valued at approximately $2.2 billion at current market prices.
Although the dashboard provides a snapshot of the company's holdings at a specific point in time rather than a comprehensive audit of its financial health, Block intends to issue regular reports audited by third-party firms. The snapshot, which reflects the balances as of March 2026, is supported by third-party audit checks and cryptographic signatures, enabling users to verify the information independently. To ensure transparency, the company has made its wallet addresses and signed messages publicly available on the blockchain, allowing anyone to verify ownership without needing access to private keys.
