Michael Saylor returns to make headlines in the international financial landscape: on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of his controversial investment strategy in Bitcoin, Strategy has formalized a new purchase worth approximately 18 million dollars, equivalent to 155 BTC.
This step further strengthens the company’s position as a leader among listed companies that adopt cryptocurrency as the main reserve of value, thus confirming a trend that is establishing itself in corporate finance.
Why does Michael Saylor keep betting everything on Bitcoin?
At the center of Strategy’s Bitcoin purchase strategy is the belief – which Saylor has expressed since the first movements in 2020 – that BTC represents a superior safe haven compared to traditional corporate investments.
According to the data collected by the company, starting from the first historic investment made on August 11, 2020, with 21,454 BTC worth 250 million dollars, the company has maintained a policy of constant accumulation, based on long-term analysis and trying to protect itself from the growing inflation that erodes the values of classic liquid reserves.
Who is Michael Saylor? The man who changed the rules of corporate investments
Visionary and often controversial, Michael Saylor, co-founder and executive chairman of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), has established himself as a prominent figure in the “Bitcoin mania” within the corporate sphere.
His public commitment and boldness in allocations on BTC have changed the way many companies approach treasury management, prompting a wave of imitators among publicly traded companies globally. Industry analysts note that his approach has influenced the financial strategies of numerous institutions.
How has Strategy’s Bitcoin stash grown in five years?
In this five-year period, Strategy has stood out for a patient and gradual approach in accumulating Bitcoin:
August 2020: initial entry with 21,454 BTC for 250 million dollars
Over 170 acquisitions over time, of varying sizes
Current holdings: 628,946 BTC, for a total investment close to 20 billion dollars (data updated to May 2025)
The average entry price is around 31,000 dollars per BTC, demonstrating a consistent and disciplined strategy.

The purchase for the anniversary: symbolic gesture or new “Call to Action” for the market?
The recent purchase of 155 BTC is not just a numerical matter: it represents a confirmation of continuity in the company’s vision, despite being one of the smallest purchases in the group’s history.
Although in the past more substantial operations have been carried out – such as the purchase of 21,550 BTC in December 2024 – today consistency is preferred: this purchase, although limited in quantitative terms, assumes a symbolic value in a crypto market still marked by uncertainties.
In 2025 Strategy remains the giant: no one holds more corporate bitcoin
With this new step, Strategy consolidates its leadership among the major public holders of Bitcoin. The gap compared to competitors remains wide: no other listed company can boast such significant reserves, effectively making Saylor’s model a studied and often followed reference point by operators in the digital financial sector. Market research confirms that Strategy holds over 60% of the total publicly known corporate BTC reserves.
Monitoring the trend: how much has Strategy earned from Bitcoin?
From the first purchase in 2020, the value of Bitcoin has increased by about 160%, rising from approximately 11,600 dollars in August 2020 to about 30,000 dollars at the beginning of 2025, although with volatility still to be closely monitored. The 960% figure mentioned in some reports is not correct.
It should be noted, however, that the price of Bitcoin reached peaks above 68,000 dollars in 2021. Hypotheses about increases up to 120,000 dollars remain speculative and unconfirmed.
This trend has nevertheless positioned Strategy among the entities with the best returns on invested capital in the technological and financial sector. Strategy and the market data updated at the end of 2024 confirm a significant growth in the net value of assets in Bitcoin.
Does consistency matter more than mega-investments? the market is divided
Investors have noticed the relative modesty of the latest purchase (155 BTC), however consistent with the strategy of regular purchases. In the last year, the operations have ranged between 130 and 155 BTC at a time, with invested values varying from about 4 to 18 million dollars, based on the market price.
Among analysts, the prevailing belief is that consistent discipline proves more effective than large sporadic bets, especially in a context of unstable markets between bull rallies and bear corrections.
Last purchase: about 155 BTC for 18 million dollars
Record minimo in volumi: approximately 130 BTC (value around 5-6 million dollars)
Record minimum in value: about 5 million dollars for an acquisition of approximately 130 BTC
Will Saylor’s strategy continue? Here are the official statements
The path is clearly outlined: Michael Saylor has repeatedly confirmed that the accumulation of reserves in Bitcoin will continue regardless of the price trend. The confidence in the long-term growth potential remains the true beacon guiding corporate decisions. According to the latest interviews reported by industry sources, Saylor considers BTC a benchmark asset for future global finance.
Future prospects: Bitcoin as a pillar for business growth?
In 2025, Saylor reiterated his intention to continue on the path of acquisitions. His statements reflect a growing belief that, in the long term – over a twenty-year horizon – the price of Bitcoin could reach very high levels, although it remains the subject of heated debate and skepticism among numerous institutional investors. In this context, continuity in exposure appears as the distinctive feature of Strategy’s strategy.
Why do other companies look to Strategy as a model?
The management of treasury in Bitcoin presents some potential opportunities for companies that wish to innovate:
Diversification compared to traditional investments
Protection from the erosion of purchasing power generated by inflation
Possibility of significantly higher returns in the medium-long term
It must be said that this growing interest has led many other entities to closely observe the results achieved by Saylor and his team in recent years.
The Strategy Case: A New Standard in Corporate Finance?
The leadership of Strategy in accumulating reserves in Bitcoin highlights a model that seems destined to influence the market. The record numbers and international visibility encourage other companies to reconsider their approach to digital assets. Saylor’s Bitcoin investment strategy, despite criticism and imitations, remains one of the main themes of 2025 for those studying innovation in the financial sector.
