MicroStrategy Adds 6,220 BTC in Latest $739.8M Bitcoin Bet
- MicroStrategy acquires 6,220 BTC at an average price of $118,940, totaling $739.8M.
- Total holdings reach 607,770 BTC, acquired at an average of $71,756 per coin.
- Strategy questioned due to yield sources, potential risks tied to leverage and market corrections.
MicroStrategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, has doubled down on its crypto bet with a fresh purchase of 6,220 BTC for approximately $739.8 million. The acquisition, announced today via CEO Michael Saylor’s post on X, was made at an average price of $118,940 per BTC. This brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 607,770 BTC—acquired at an average cost of $71,756.
This aggressive accumulation aligns with MicroStrategy’s ongoing strategy of treating Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset. As Bitcoin hit a new all-time high near $121,800 (per TradingView), the timing of the move appears to reflect Saylor’s bullish outlook. Notably, the firm’s reported year-to-date yield of 20.8% in 2025 adds weight to its conviction.
However, questions linger around the sustainability of this performance. Analysts and Reddit crypto communities suggest the yield may not be purely from Bitcoin’s price appreciation. Instead, financial modeling reveals potential yield inflation via equity dilution and convertible bond financing—raising concerns about long-term viability.
Moreover, historical price behavior cautions investors: BTC often faces multi-month corrections after reaching new highs. As such, MicroStrategy’s leveraged approach, which includes issuing debt and stock to buy Bitcoin, could expose it to amplified downside risk.
Investor sentiment remains mixed. Supporters laud Saylor’s boldness, viewing the move as validation of Bitcoin’s future. Critics, however, warn that high exposure and market volatility could backfire.
With the company targeting a staggering 1,000,000 BTC, the crypto world will be watching closely. Will this move mark a step toward legacy-defining success—or a cautionary tale in over-leveraged digital speculation?
