MicroStrategy Buys 1895 More Bitcoin, Pushing Total Holdings Above 555k BTC

Key Takeaways
  • Strategy is the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin (BTC) in the world, with 555,450 BTC worth over $52 billion.
  • The firm’s BTC holdings suffered a $5.9 billion loss in Q1 2025.
  • It has recently entered into an agreement to sell up to $21 billion of its Class A stock.

Michael Saylor’s Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has increased its holdings to 555,450 BTC after another sizeable purchase.

This follows a brutal Q1 2025 result, in which the firm reported a loss of $5.1 billion on its BTC holdings, marking its fifth negative quarter in a row.

Billions in Bitcoin

According to the latest filing , Strategy acquired an additional 1,895 BTC between April 28 and May 4, 2025. These tokens were purchased at an average price of $95,167, for a total buy of $180.3 million.

The firm now holds 555,450 BTC worth $52.27 billion . So far, the firm’s Bitcoin bid has yielded an unrealized profit of $14.18 billion.

This follows a pretty aggressive streak of buying from Strategy, which, once BTC tumbled to below $85,000, began hoovering up tokens after a three-week pause.

This latest purchase is the second-smallest that Strategy has made this year, with a January 6 buy of 1070 BTC being the lowest. This was at an average price of $94,004 per token.

It’s worth noting that a dozen of Strategy’s acquisitions between Nov. 5, 2024, and Feb. 24, 2025, are all in the red as average prices range from high in the $90,000 region, or above $100,000.

Industry Meets

The news arrives as the firm’s annual flagship conference, Strategy World 2025 , officially kicks off today in Orlando, Florida.

It runs concurrently with the Bitcoin for Corporations, also hosted by Strategy, which will see other major BTC treasury firms, such as Semler Scientific and Metaplanet, give speeches.

The recent buy comes amid a renewed wave of bullish optimism amongst Bitcoin investors.

After a two-month streak of outflows totaling over $4.5 billion across February and March 2025.

U.S. spot BTC exchange-traded funds have almost reversed these figures, with around $4.1 billion across April and May 2025.
