MicroStrategy has once again expanded its Bitcoin holdings, acquiring an additional 27,200 BTC. This recent purchase brings the firm’s total Bitcoin holdings to 279,000 BTC, now valued at over $20 billion following Bitcoin’s price rally beyond $80,000. 
The company’s aggressive <a href="https://x.com/saylor/status/1855959543508828428" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">acquisition strategy</a>, led by executive chairman Michael Saylor, continues to reinforce its position as the leading corporate Bitcoin holder.

This puts the current market value of its holdings at around $20.5 billion, more than doubling the firm’s investment and yielding a return of over 104%.

The company has consistently purchased Bitcoin over the past few years, conducting 42 acquisitions to date as part of a strategy to secure a substantial digital asset reserve. 
This approach aligns with MicroStrategy’s long-term financial vision, including its ambitious “21/21” plan, which aims to raise $42 billion over three years—split evenly between equity and fixed-income securities—to fund further Bitcoin purchases.

The recent <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/cryptocurrencies/bitcoin/">Bitcoin</a> surge has similarly benefited other major holders, such as the Kingdom of Bhutan and El Salvador. 
Bhutan has gradually acquired over $1 billion in Bitcoin, representing approximately 32% of its GDP, according to Arkham Intelligence. The country is also investing in a national-scale Bitcoin mining operation, positioning Bitcoin as a strategic economic asset in its portfolio. 
El Salvador, which adopted Bitcoin as legal tender in 2021, holds 5,930 BTC, now worth over $482 million. 
The Central American nation has achieved an 80% profit on its investment, translating to $214 million in unrealized gains. Under President Nayib Bukele’s dollar-cost-averaging approach, El Salvador continues to purchase one Bitcoin daily while also investing in renewable-energy-powered Bitcoin mining, funded partly by its passport program revenue. With this investment, the country’s overall Bitcoin profit has now surpassed $100 million.
