MicroStrategy Solidifies Position as Largest Corporate Bitcoin Holder, Acquires Additional 10,100 BTC for $1.1B

MicroStrategy has once again solidified its position as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, announcing the acquisition of an additional 10,100 BTC

Business intelligence firm MicroStrategy has announced the acquisition of 10,100 more Bitcoin, bringing its total stash to around 471,100 BTC. The latest purchase is valued at $1.1 billion, acquired at an average price of $105,596 per Bitcoin.

This recent acquisition follows MicroStrategy’s purchase of 11,000 BTC just days prior, increasing its total Bitcoin holdings to 461,000 BTC at an average cost of $63,610 per Bitcoin. With the latest transaction, MicroStrategy now holds an estimated 471,100 BTC, valued at approximately $46 billion based on current market prices.

According to a Bloomberg report, MicroStrategy is funding these substantial Bitcoin acquisitions through stock sales. The company obtained approval from its shareholders to expand its authorized Class A common shares from 330 million to a massive 10.3 billion shares, enabling it to generate $1.1 billion from the sale of a portion of these shares.

This move aligns with the broader narrative of Bitcoin adoption in the U.S., where recent developments, including President Trump’s call for a national ‘digital asset stockpile,’ have fueled interest in Bitcoin’s role as a strategic reserve asset.

MicroStrategy’s co-founder and outspoken Bitcoin advocate, Michael Saylor, teased the latest purchase on social media, reiterating the firm’s unwavering dedication to Bitcoin as a treasury asset. This move also complements MicroStrategy’s strategy of accumulating Bitcoin over 12 consecutive weeks.

Despite market volatility and skepticism from traditional investors, MicroStrategy's strategy has been clear: to double down on Bitcoin, positioning it as the centerpiece of its corporate treasury. As the company continues to make headlines with its Bitcoin purchases, it remains to be seen how other corporations will respond to this unique approach to treasury management.
