Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, has further cemented its position as the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder with a fresh acquisition of 3,459 BTC for approximately $285.8 million.
The latest purchase brings the company’s total holdings to 531,644 BTC — worth over $45 billion — acquired at an average price of $67,556 per coin.
The announcement, made on April 14, comes just weeks after a previous buy of 6,911 BTC between March 17 and March 23 for $584.1 million. That milestone pushed the company’s holdings beyond 500,000 BTC for the first time.
In its latest filing, Strategy revealed it funded the April purchase via the sale of nearly 960,000 shares of its Class A common stock. The move reinforces Executive Chairman Michael Saylor’s long-standing strategy of using equity to acquire more Bitcoin, often referring to BTC as the company’s “primary treasury reserve asset.”
The buy also comes amid a volatile macro backdrop, with President Donald Trump escalating trade tensions with China through aggressive tariffs — and markets on edge over global economic impacts. Despite the broader turmoil, Bitcoin remained resilient, trading around $84,861 at press time.
Strategy’s BTC holdings now yield an 11.4% year-to-date return for 2025. In comparison, the average cost basis across all purchases stands at $67,556 per coin, giving the company a substantial paper profit.
“As of April 13, 2025, the company held 531,644 bitcoins,” Strategy stated, acquired at a total purchase price of approximately $35.92 billion.
Strategy’s aggressive Bitcoin accumulation has kept it far ahead of other corporate players like Tesla and Block. And as Saylor often puts it — if Bitcoin dips, “he’ll just buy more.”
Despite the broader market volatility, Bitcoin's price remains relatively stable, trading around $84,861, according to Kraken data.
