MicroStrategy increases Bitcoin holdings with a $1.1 billion investment

MicroStrategy, the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, has bought 11,000 BTC for $1.1 billion, making it their highest acquisition in 2025. This decision demonstrates the firm’s commitment to Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset.MicroStrategy, a forerunner in business Bitcoin adoption, has added 11,000 BTC to its portfolio.

The company finalized this $1.1 billion deal between January 13 and January 20, just before former President Donald Trump’s inauguration took place. The corporation bought Bitcoin for an average of $101,191 per coin. This latest buy takes MicroStrategy’s overall Bitcoin holdings to an astonishing 461,000 BTC, purchased for nearly $29.3 billion at an average cost of $63,610 per Bitcoin.

Co-founder Michael Saylor announced the news on social media, underlining the company’s strategic focus on Bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset.MicroStrategy has consistently funded its Bitcoin purchases with convertible bonds and share sales. This marks the company’s third large acquisition in January 2025, bringing its total for the year to 14,600 BTC. The purchase has already yielded a 1.69% return, firmly establishing MicroStrategy as the greatest business Bitcoin holder.

This transaction coincides with mounting speculation that the United States may adopt Bitcoin as a national reserve asset under the Trump administration. Industry analysts anticipate significant progress in this area, despite the absence of official announcements.

Saylor, an outspoken supporter of Bitcoin, has previously sketched a scenario in which it benefits the US economy. He has argued for a national digital asset strategy, citing Bitcoin’s ability to strengthen the currency, reduce national debt, and position the United States as a leader in the global digital economy. This step not only demonstrates MicroStrategy’s belief in Bitcoin but also its determination to preserve its position as a leader in corporate cryptocurrency adoption.
