Bitcoin Giant MicroStrategy Buys Again, Now Holds 528K BTC

- MicroStrategy surpasses 520,000 in total Bitcoin holdings - Average purchase price stands at $67,500 [Unblock Media] On March 30, 2025, Nasdaq-listed MicroStrategy once again drew market attention by purchasing a significant amount of Bitcoin. With an additional acquisition of 22,048 BTC, the company’s total holdings now stand at 528,185 BTC — approximately 2.5% of all Bitcoin in circulation, making it the largest corporate holder of the asset. The recent acquisition, valued at roughly $1.92 billion, was made at an average price of $86,969 per BTC. However, the company’s overall average purchase price remains $67,500. This figure reflects the cumulative investment over several years, during which MicroStrategy acquired Bitcoin at varying times and prices. Rather than treating Bitcoin as a speculative asset, MicroStrategy adopts it as a long-term strategic reserve. As of Q1 2025, the company has realized an estimated annual return of 11.0% from its Bitcoin holdings. This return is calculated based on the increase in Bitcoin's price from early 2024 to early 2025. For instance, if Bitcoin was priced at $90,000 in January 2024 and reached $100,000 by January 2025, the implied return would be around 11.1% — not from short-term trading, but from a consistent long-term holding strategy. Market sentiment is optimistic. Martin Rheinweber, strategist at MarketVector Indexes, noted that “historically, Bitcoin has experienced bull runs roughly every four years,” and projected that Bitcoin could surpass $150,000 by the end of 2025. His prediction is based on the post-halving price surge trend, inflows from ETF approvals, and increasing demand for alternative assets amid a weakening U.S. dollar. Such analysis is rooted not in mere speculation, but in historical cycle patterns and macroeconomic indicators, which adds credibility and draws investor attention. MicroStrategy’s continued Bitcoin purchases send three strong messages to the market: First, institutional investors still regard Bitcoin as a long-term store of value. Second, despite its volatility, strategic buying can yield high returns. Third, holding Bitcoin itself has become a corporate strategy. As of the first half of 2025, Bitcoin remains both a controversial and opportunistic asset. Yet, MicroStrategy’s case demonstrates that with consistent strategy and long-term vision, both profitability and trust can be enhanced. The market now watches closely for further Bitcoin purchases by the company.
