MicroStrategy has just added another 4,980 Bitcoin<\/a> to its stash, spending about $531\u202fmillion at an average of $106,801 per coin. That brings the company\u2019s total haul to 597,325\u202fBTC.<\/p>\n

At today\u2019s market price, those holdings are worth over $64\u202f billion, compared with the roughly $42.4\u202f billion MicroStrategy (now Strategy<\/a>) has put in, fees included.<\/p>\n

According to the June\u202f30 filing<\/a> with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, Strategy \u2013 led by billionaire Michael Saylor \u2013 is sitting on nearly $21.6\u202f billion in unrealized gains.<\/p>\n

Strategic Bitcoin Push<\/h2>\n

Strategy bought its latest batch during the week ending June\u202f29. The firm has already snapped up 88,062 \u202fBTC worth nearly $10 \u202fbillion so far this year. Back in 2024, the company picked up 140,538\u202f BTC at a cost of $13 \u202fbillion.<\/p>\n

Company data shows a Bitcoin yield of almost 20% year\u2011to\u2011date, with 7.8% gained in the second quarter alone. That edges Strategy closer to its goal of a 25% yield by the end of 2025.<\/p>\n

Strategy has acquired 4,980 BTC for ~$531.9 million at ~$106,801 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 19.7% YTD 2025. As of 6\/29\/2025, we hodl 597,325 $BTC<\/a> acquired for ~$42.40 billion at ~$70,982 per bitcoin. $MSTR<\/a> $STRK<\/a> $STRF<\/a> $STRD<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/xvWnSkfukS<\/a><\/p>\n

Corporate Treasury Trend<\/h2>\n

Strategy now controls almost 3% of all the Bitcoin ever mined out of the 21\u202f million cap. That dominance<\/a> has inspired 134 publicly traded firms to follow suit, adding Bitcoin to their corporate treasuries.<\/p>\n

Recent adopters include Twenty One, US President Donald Trump\u2019s media firm Trump Media, and GameStop. In Japan, Metaplanet<\/a> added 1,005 \u202fBTC this week to bring its total to 13,350 BTC.<\/p>\n

Over in Europe, The Blockchain Group bought 60 BTC, lifting its holdings to 1,788 BTC valued at around \u20ac161.3 million.<\/p>\n

The Blockchain Group has acquired 60 BTC for ~\u20ac5.5 million at ~\u20ac91,879 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 1,270.7% YTD, 69.3% QTD.

New Trading Products Arrive<\/p>\n

Cryptocurrency exchanges are racing to meet all this demand. On June 28, Gemini rolled out a tokenized version of Strategy stock for investors in the EU. That marks the exchange\u2019s first tokenized equity offering in that region.<\/p>\n

Shares of Strategy have climbed nearly 5% over the past month, trading around $391, according to Google Finance data.<\/p>\n

Price Resistance Looms<\/p>\n

Bitcoin itself has been holding near $108,000<\/a>. It rose as much as 3% over the weekend to hit $108,798.<\/p>\n

Some traders, like MN Capital founder Michael van de Poppe, expect a brief pullback before BTC tries to breach $109,000. That level sits on the four-hour chart as a clear resistance point.<\/p>\n

Data from CoinGlass shows nearly $50 million in liquidity stacked at $109,500. If Bitcoin can clear the $110,000\u2013$112,300 zone, it could trigger a short squeeze that pushes prices into fresh record territory.<\/p>\n
