MicroStrategy Adds 2,000 More Bitcoins (BTC) to Its Stash, Now Holds 446,400 BTC Worth $27.9B

Bitcoin price today soared to above $94,000 as the largest publicly traded corporate holder of BTC just added over 2,000 new tokens to its stash.

According to MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor, the software development firm just snagged 2,138 BTC – currently valued at over $209 million.

“MicroStrategy has acquired 2,138 BTC for ~$209 million at ~$97,837 per Bitcoin and has achieved BTC yield of 47.8% QTD (quarter to date) and 74.1% YTD (year-to-date). As of 12/29/2024, we hodl 446,400 BTC acquired for ~$27.9 billion at ~$62,428 per Bitcoin.”

Saylor included a link to the company’s SEC filing accompanying the BTC acquisition.

Last week, MicroStrategy added three new seats to its board of directors.

In a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the enterprise software company said the number of its board members has increased to nine.

“On December 20, 2024, the Board of Directors (the ‘Board’) of MicroStrategy Incorporated (the ‘Company’), upon recommendation from the Nominating Committee of the Board, expanded the size of the Board from six to nine members.”

The following day, reports surfaced that MicroStrategy, along with governments and exchange-traded funds, owns nearly one-third of all known BTC holdings.

The 31% of known BTC holdings owned by ETFs, governments and MicroStrategy represents a 14% increase from December 2023, according to Ki Young Ju, the founder and chief executive of the digital asset analytics firm CryptoQuant.

The flagship digital asset is trading for $93,817 at time of writing, a 1.5% decrease on the day.
