Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) has reinforced its dominant position in the Bitcoin sector with a significant acquisition of 4,020 BTC for $427.1 million during the period spanning from May 19 to May 25.
The purchase, made at an average price of $106,237 per coin, was facilitated through the company’s ongoing at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program.
Continuing its evolution from a traditional software enterprise, Strategy has embraced its identity as the first Bitcoin Treasury Company globally.
This latest acquisition brings Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to 580,250 BTC, amassed at an estimated cost of $40.61 billion, yielding an average purchase price of $69,979 per Bitcoin.
Unprecedented Holdings and Strong Yield
As of May 25, 2025, Strategy has reported a year-to-date Bitcoin yield of 16.8%, further establishing itself as the foremost corporate holder of the cryptocurrency.
This performance, which outpaces traditional assets, reinforces the company’s belief that Bitcoin is one of the most reliable long-term stores of value in today’s financial landscape.
The growth of its Bitcoin treasury has been driven by a combination of surplus cash flow and capital acquired through equity offerings.
The recent $427 million funding initiative made this latest acquisition possible, demonstrating ongoing investor interest in Strategy’s Bitcoin-focused strategy.
A Blueprint for Bitcoin Treasury Management
Michael Saylor, the founder and chairman of Strategy, has been a strong advocate for integrating Bitcoin into corporate treasury management, often referring to it as “digital gold without the drawbacks.”

By consistently implementing this robust strategy, Strategy has set a framework for publicly traded companies seeking exposure to Bitcoin without directly owning the cryptocurrency.
Despite some critics cautioning about the potential risks associated with significant exposure to a single volatile asset, Strategy’s expanding institutional investor base and its solid Bitcoin yield indicate continued market confidence in its approach.
Saylor’s Vision: Aiming for Market Leadership
A recent Financial Times documentary titled “Michael Saylor’s $40 Billion Bitcoin Bet” delves into the ambitious vision driving Strategy’s efforts. In the film, Jeff Walton, an analyst at the company, suggests that Strategy could ultimately rise to be the leading publicly traded entity globally, fueled by its commitment to Bitcoin.
“Strategy holds more of the best asset and most pristine collateral on the planet than any other company, by multiples,” Walton asserted.
He posits that the firm’s extensive exposure to Bitcoin—widely regarded as the digital equivalent of gold—affords it a distinctive strategic advantage in an unpredictable macroeconomic environment.
