Michael Saylor’s firm, Strategy, has more than doubled its Bitcoin reserves since the U.S. federal election last November, when Donald Trump secured victory.
In the nine months following the election, Strategy acquired 376,571 BTC—valued at approximately $43.2 billion at current prices—boosting its total holdings to 628,791 BTC. Before this political shift, it had taken the company over four years to accumulate just 252,220 BTC.
This sharp acceleration means over 60% of the company’s Bitcoin reserves were gathered during Trump’s return to office, a period marked by crypto-friendly policies and the rollback of aggressive enforcement seen under the Biden administration.
One of the Largest BTC Buys to Date
In a recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Strategy revealed it purchased 21,021 BTC last week for $2.46 billion—its third-largest acquisition by dollar value since the company began building its Bitcoin treasury in 2020.
The coins were bought at an average price of $117,256, highlighting Strategy’s strong belief in the asset’s long-term potential—even at historically high price levels.
Strategy also recorded two blockbuster buys earlier this cycle: 55,500 BTC for $5.4 billion and 51,780 BTC for $4.6 billion, both completed shortly after the election.
Bitcoin as a “Freedom Virus”
During a recent appearance on Fox Business, Executive Chairman Michael Saylor likened Bitcoin to a “freedom virus,” describing it as a swarm-like force that continues to grow globally.
“It’s as unstoppable as a swarm of hornets,” Saylor said, noting that Strategy aims to outperform Bitcoin itself by issuing yield-bearing credit products backed by its holdings.
Wall Street’s Missing the Bigger Picture
Saylor believes traditional financial institutions still don’t fully understand what Strategy is building.
“Wall Street doesn’t quite get it yet,” he claimed, while highlighting that Strategy is now the fourth-most-profitable financial firm in the U.S.
When asked about other companies adopting Bitcoin, Saylor compared it to industries adopting electricity or the internet: “Eventually, this will become standard practice.”
Record Profits and Massive Holdings
Strategy recently announced a record $10 billion profit for Q2. Its Bitcoin holdings, purchased at an average price of $73,277 per coin, are now worth around $72.2 billion—accounting for roughly 3.16% of all BTC in circulation.
