MicroStrategy just acquired 15,355 Bitcoin, increasing its total holdings to 553,555. The company’s strategy is showing impressive gains, with recent acquisitions proving highly profitable. How long will CEO Michael Saylor's aggressive Bitcoin bet last?

MicroStrategy, now known as Strategy, paid approximately US$1.42 billion to purchase 15,355 Bitcoin. The acquisition’s average price was US$92,737 per BTC. The acquisition took place between April 21 and April 27, 2025, with the final purchase made on April 28.

Saylor, in a recent post on X, highlighted a BTC return on investment of 12.1% YTD for 2025. The post also showed the gains from 2024 to April 2025:

Growing BTC Reserve Inspires Other Market Players

MicroStrategy's Bitcoin reserve has grown immensely. The current value of the total BTC holdings of the company is US$52.76 billion. The increased BTC treasury earned the company US$5.1 billion recently. Thus, inspiring other major players like Tether and SoftBank to follow suit.

Persistent Purchasing Trend

The new acquisition comes after a series of quick acquisitions spanning over the last two months(March-April 2025). Each transaction from March 2025 until now is profitable. The biggest profit of US$179.37 million was from the March 31 buying of 22,048 BTC.

Bitcoin Bull Run 

Strategy’s Bitcoin holding currently represents approximately 2.63% of the circulating supply of Bitcoin. As of 13.58 PM on April 29, 2025, it is trading at US$94,965 with 24-hour gains of 0.16%.

According to analysts, BTC price may reach $138,000 in the next three months. However, some remain cautious as Trump Tariff fear still looms along with a probability of India-Pak war. Thus, it remains to be seen if Startegy’s Bitcoin bet will pay off in the long run or not.
