Microstrategy Has Bought Another 15,350 BTC, Taking Its Total Holdings to 439,000

Dec 17, 2024 at 02:00 pm

A large buyer that has had a constant presence during this latest Bitcoin bull run has been Microstrategy.

Microstrategy Has Bought Another 15,350 BTC, Taking Its Total Holdings to 439,000

Large-scale buyer Microstrategy has announced a new Bitcoin purchase, adding to its already-impressive crypto holdings. According to the company's recent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Microstrategy has acquired an additional 15,350 BTC.

This latest purchase brings Microstrategy's total Bitcoin holdings to 439,000 BTC, further solidifying its position as the largest corporate holder of the cryptocurrency. The company's total investment in Bitcoin now stands at $27.1 billion, with an average acquisition cost of $61,725 per token.

no dull moment, CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn has shared a chart that visualizes the points at which Microstrategy has made purchases during the last couple of months.

As shown in the chart, out of these six buys, the latest purchase is the smallest in BTC value, but not so in USD value, as it slightly outweighs the 15,400 coins buy from earlier in the month, thanks to the asset's price continuing to appreciate since then.

According to the company's SEC filings, Microstrategy's Bitcoin holdings are now valued at $46.2 billion, based on the cryptocurrency's current price of $106,400. This represents a substantial gain on the company's initial investment, with a 72% profit at the current market price.

In related news, as Bitcoin sets a new all-time high (ATH) above the $106,000 level, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has shared how accumulation leading up to this milestone looks from the perspective of its new Cost Basis Distribution (CBD) tool.

The CBD is an indicator that tells us how much of the cryptocurrency's supply was last purchased (based on the last transaction price or Realized Price of each token in circulation) at the different price levels.

As is visible in the chart, Bitcoin investors participated in a notable amount of buying and selling between $96,000 and $100,000, with the $97,000 to $98,000 cluster particularly standing out for hosting the cost basis of 500,000 BTC.

Above the $100,000 level, trading activity has continued, but so far, the investors haven't built up any significant supply clusters yet, with levels above $103,000 being especially thin with coins.

BTC Price

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $106,400, showing a rise of over 8% over the last seven days and a 1.5% increase over the last 30 days. The cryptocurrency's market capitalization is around $2.02 trillion, and its dominance rate is 61.2%.
