MicroStrategy Buys More Bitcoin as its Weekly BTC Buying Spree Hits Week Nine, Achieving 74% BTC Yield
Chairman of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, has announced a new purchase of Bitcoin valued at over $100 million as the 2025 bull market prepares to begin.
Today, MicroStrategy revealed that it has added 1,070 BTC to its Bitcoin portfolio, investing $101 million in the market. The latest acquisition was made at a price of $94,004 per coin, indicating that the transaction likely occurred earlier, as Bitcoin is currently trading around $99,500 at the time of this press release.
Currently, MicroStrategy holds 447,470 BTC, which it has acquired over the past four years at a total cost of $27.97 billion. The average purchase price per coin now stands at $62,503. With Bitcoin’s current price, MicroStrategy’s portfolio is valued at $44.55 billion. As a result, the software services firm has an unrealized profit of $16.59 billion.
MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin buying streak
It is worth noting that this latest acquisition builds on MicroStrategy’s ongoing momentum in purchasing Bitcoin. The company acquired 258,320 BTC in 2024, with its buying spree intensifying in the final weeks of the year when it transitioned to weekly Bitcoin purchases.
Since November 11, after pro-Bitcoin Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election, MicroStrategy has announced BTC purchases every Monday. Today’s announcement marks the ninth consecutive weekly purchase.
On November 25, MicroStrategy made its largest-ever single purchase, acquiring 55,500 BTC for $5.4 billion.
MicroStrategy Achieved 74.3% Bitcoin Yield in 2024
Of all its Bitcoin acquisitions, the one made on December 23 is the only individual transaction that resulted in a loss. The company purchased 5,262 BTC at $106,662 per coin, while Bitcoin is currently trading at $99,500 per coin at the time of this press release.
However, MicroStrategy’s total Bitcoin holdings are still up by 59.35%, with earnings exceeding $16 billion.
In the announcement, Saylor disclosed that the company achieved a BTC yield of 48% in Q4 2024 alone. He added that the BTC yield for the entire year of 2024 was 74.3%.
Community Reacts: Will MicroStrategy Maintain Its Momentum for the Tenth Week?
MicroStrategy’s consistent Bitcoin purchases for nine consecutive weeks have generated excitement in the crypto community.
Bitcoiner Neil Jacobs commented on the announcement, praising MicroStrategy for leading the way once again. He emphasized the timeless wisdom that the best time to buy Bitcoin was yesterday, and the second-best time is today, with MicroStrategy setting an example.
Meanwhile, others have noticed a progressively reduced quantity in MicroStrategy’s weekly purchases. They question whether the company will maintain the same momentum for a tenth week.
Notably, last week, the company announced plans to raise $2 billion to buy more BTC.
