Legendary investor Stanley Druckenmiller's Duquesne Family Office has expanded into the digital assets sector, according to an August 2026 Form 13F filing covering Q2 holdings. The firm reported a $64.7 million stake in Bitdeer Technologies Group and a $23.1 million investment in Hyperliquid Strategies.
During the second quarter, Duquesne acquired 4.1 million shares of Bitdeer, a global high-performance computing company and bitcoin miner, at an average purchase price of $12.26. The investment positions Bitdeer as a notable holding in the billionaire's digital assets and artificial intelligence portfolio.
Bitdeer recently reported financial results showing decreasing quarter-over-quarter net and gross loss percentages. The company also closed a 16-year, $4.7 billion artificial intelligence agreement for 121 megawatts at Norway's Tydal campus and began construction on a Nevada facility designed to produce 10,000 Sealminer units monthly by next year.
Druckenmiller's position aligns with moves by other major financial firms, including Citadel and Jane Street, which significantly increased their Bitdeer holdings during Q2. Jane Street reported holding over $112 million in shares acquired primarily during the quarter.
In addition to Bitdeer, Druckenmiller gained indirect exposure to the Hyperliquid ecosystem by purchasing 2.9 million shares of Hyperliquid Strategies, valued at $23.1 million. Hyperliquid Strategies functions as a digital asset treasury company providing institutional access to the HYPE token.
The HYPE token and Hyperliquid Strategies (PURR) shares saw upward momentum following developments regarding regulatory engagement for the decentralized trading platform in the United States. Other major financial institutions, such as BlackRock, State Street, and Citadel, also expanded their PURR holdings during the second quarter.
