BTC Reserve Strategy: Corporations & Governments Embrace Bitcoin as a Strategic Asset
The BTC Reserve Strategy involves entities—ranging from publicly-traded companies to sovereign governments—allocating Bitcoin (BTC) as a reserve asset within their treasuries. Popularized by MicroStrategy (now Strategy), which accumulated over 628,000 BTC (≈ 3% of total supply), this approach aims to hedge inflation, diversify balance sheets, and attract investor confidence by signaling long-term value alignment .
In 2025 alone, over 60 non-crypto firms have adopted similar strategies, fueling institutional demand for BTC as corporate finance evolves . Meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury has established a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, using forfeited BTC as national reserve assets—marking the first time a government holds BTC in a sovereign reserve fund .
This trend blends financial strategy with innovation signaling, potentially reshaping corporate and government asset management frameworks in the digital age.
