MicroStrategy Bolsters Bitcoin Holdings With 15,350 BTC Purchase Worth $1.5 Billion

A Record-Breaking Acquisition Adds to the Firm’s Crypto Dominance

MicroStrategy has once again captured headlines with its unwavering commitment to Bitcoin. The software company revealed an acquisition of 15,350 BTC for $1.5 billion, marking their sixth purchase in just six weeks. This spree, which began in November, underscores MicroStrategy’s aggressive accumulation strategy. The purchase price averaged $100,386 per bitcoin, reflecting the firm’s determination to bolster its reserves regardless of market volatility.

With this latest buy, MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings now stand at a staggering 439,000 BTC, acquired for a total of $27.1 billion at an average price of $61,725 per coin. This positions the company as the single largest public holder of Bitcoin, owning over 2% of the cryptocurrency's total supply. The timing of the purchase coincides with MicroStrategy's recent inclusion in the Nasdaq-100, further cementing its reputation as a pioneering corporate advocate for digital assets.

The firm’s performance metrics reflect the benefits of its strategy. Quarter-to-date, MicroStrategy has achieved a 46.4% yield on its BTC investments, with a year-to-date yield soaring to 72.4%. Such figures highlight the company’s remarkable ability to capitalize on Bitcoin’s price movements.

This acquisition follows a $2.1 billion Bitcoin purchase just last week, which involved 21,550 BTC. MicroStrategy’s consistent buys over recent weeks signal an unrelenting belief in Bitcoin’s long-term potential. Despite market fluctuations and skepticism from some corners of the financial world, the company’s strategy of aggressive accumulation shows no sign of slowing.
