MicroStrategy’s BTC holdings are worth $14 billion

MicroStrategy’s total Bitcoin holdings, acquired at a combined cost basis of $9.45 billion and an average price of $38,585 per BTC, have surged in value as Bitcoin’s market price hovers around $58,000.

This puts the company’s current Bitcoin portfolio at roughly $14 billion.

The firm has demonstrated unwavering confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term potential since it first started acquiring the cryptocurrency in 2020.

The company has introduced a unique metric called “Bitcoin yield,” reporting a 4.4% increase in the current quarter and 17% year-to-date.

This metric reflects the growth in the ratio of its Bitcoin holdings to its assumed diluted shares.

MicroStrategy’s strategy not only focuses on accumulating Bitcoin but also on optimizing returns from its investments.

MicroStrategy’s transformation from a business software firm to a Bitcoin-focused entity represents a broader shift among institutional investors.

The company’s aggressive Bitcoin strategy has set a new precedent, encouraging other firms to view Bitcoin as a store of value and an investment vehicle.

Data from Bitcoin Treasury highlights that MicroStrategy is the largest Bitcoin holder among all publicly listed companies, solidifying its influence on the cryptocurrency market.

As institutional interest in digital assets continues to grow, MicroStrategy’s bold approach underscores the increasing adoption of Bitcoin as a legitimate asset class among corporations.
