MicroStrategy Rebrands to Strategy, Emphasizing Bitcoin and AI Focus

Business intelligence firm and Bitcoin treasury company MicroStrategy has officially rebranded to Strategy, reflecting its deepened commitment to Bitcoin and artificial intelligence.

The company unveiled a new logo featuring a stylized “B,” emphasizing its Bitcoin strategy, alongside a brand color shift to orange, a nod to the cryptocurrency’s signature hue.

Executive chairman Michael Saylor framed the rebrand as a natural evolution, aligning with the firm’s sharpened focus. “Strategy is one of the most powerful and positive words in the human language. It also represents a simplification of our company name to its most important, strategic core,” said Saylor. “After 35 years, our new brand perfectly represents our pursuit of perfection.”

Phong Le, President and CEO, underscored the company’s positioning at the intersection of Bitcoin and AI, calling the rebrand a powerful statement of its global ambition. The rebrand includes the launch of new websites for its business intelligence software and a merchandise store featuring Strategy-branded items.

The rebrand follows an aggressive expansion of Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings. The company disclosed that it acquired 218,887 BTC in the fourth quarter, spending $20.5 billion.

As of February 5, Strategy holds 471,107 BTC, valued at approximately $46 billion, with an acquisition cost of $30.3 billion, translating to an unrealized profit of nearly $16 billion.

Strategy also continued its fundraising efforts to acquire additional Bitcoin, including a public offering of Strike Preferred Stock (STRK). The company secured $563 million through these offerings by January 31, with plans to issue up to 2.5 million STRK shares starting March 31, 2025, subject to regulatory approval.

Despite its success in Bitcoin accumulation, Strategy reported a mixed financial performance in its Q4 earnings. The company posted $120.7 million in revenue, falling short of analyst expectations of $123.25 million. Total revenue declined 3% year-over-year, while subscription services revenue grew 48.4% to $31.9 million. Other revenue streams, including product support and consulting services, saw declines.

Strategy reported an adjusted loss of $3.2 per share for the quarter, below the forecast of -$0.12. The company ended Q4 with $38.1 million in cash and cash equivalents.

CEO Phong Le remained optimistic, emphasizing Strategy’s leadership in digital asset adoption. “We have completed $20 billion of our $42 billion capital plan, significantly ahead of our initial timelines, while leading the digital transformation of capital in the financial markets,” he stated. “Looking ahead to the rest of 2025, we are well-positioned to further enhance shareholder value by leveraging the strong support from institutional and retail investors for our strategic plan.”

As part of its forward-looking strategy, Strategy introduced a new metric, “BTC $ Gain,” targeting $10 billion in 2025. Additionally, Strategy will adopt fair value accounting for its Bitcoin holdings with its Q1 2025 results, a move CFO Andrew Kang said would enhance transparency and profitability metrics for its treasury operations.
