MicroStrategy, a firm that has long had faith in Bitcoin, just made another 10,107 BTC purchase. The purchase, which occurred from Jan. 21 to Jan. 26, 2025, cost the company around $1.1 billion, with the average bitcoin bought at an average price of $105,596, fees included. Now, MicroStrategy holds a total of 471,107 BTC as of Jan 26, 2025.
To finance the acquisition, the company issued and sold 2,765,157 Shares through the Company sale agreement, resulting in net proceeds of $1.1 billion. MicroStrategy now holds $30.4 billion worth of Bitcoin, at an average acquisition price of $64,511 per coin.
MicroStrategy’s January 2025 Bitcoin news isn’t its first. The purchase of 24,707 BTC earlier this month meant the company’s reserves had grown to 461,000 BTC on January 20. Combined, these acquisitions represent a total of 34,814 BTC in reserves added by the company this month. MicroStrategy’s actions highlight its unshakeable belief in Bitcoin’s future as a substantive financial asset.
MicroStrategy reported a Bitcoin yield of 2.90% to date in 2025. At the same time, it has room to grow, it still has some $4.35 billion in shares available for issuance and sale under its current sales agreement.
MicroStrategy’s aggressive actions come at a difficult moment for the cryptocurrency market. The global crypto market cap fell 5.37% to $3.42 trillion. Leading the downturn was Bitcoin, the market’s dominant player, while the other big names in cryptocurrency, including Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and XRP, were also suffering major losses. Analysts have cited growing buzz around China’s AI-powered app, DeepSeek, as one reason behind the shift in investor focus.
MicroStrategy’s increasing Bitcoin holdings reflect the company’s long-term faith in the digital asset’s value, even through market fluctuations. Acquiring a total of 471,107 BTC at an average price of $64,511, the company has created an institutional Bitcoin benchmark.
