#SaylorBTCPurchase The latest news regarding Michael Saylor and Bitcoin purchases centers on his company, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), and its continued aggressive acquisition of Bitcoin. Here are the key updates based on recent reports:
- **Recent Purchase (April 28, 2025)**: Strategy acquired 15,355 BTC for approximately $1.42 billion at an average price of $92,737 per Bitcoin. As of April 27, 2025, the company holds 553,555 BTC, purchased for about $37.90 billion at an average price of $68,459 per Bitcoin, achieving a Bitcoin yield of 13.7% year-to-date for 2025.
- **Earlier Purchase (April 21, 2025)**: Strategy bought 6,556 BTC for $555.8 million at an average price of $84,785 per coin, bringing its total holdings to 538,200 BTC, acquired for $36.47 billion at an average price of $67,766 per Bitcoin. This purchase was funded through at-the-market stock offerings, including $547.7 million from common stock and $7.8 million from preferred stock sales.
- **Hints of Further Purchases**: On April 27, 2025, Saylor hinted at another potential Bitcoin investment, following the $555 million acquisition. Posts on X and web reports suggest an announcement for a purchase in the $1.4–$1.6 billion range was anticipated, though no confirmation of this specific amount has been reported as of May 3, 2025.
- **Strategic Moves and Market Impact**: Strategy’s Bitcoin strategy has led to significant unrealized gains, with over $9.1 billion in profits reported earlier in April 2025. However, the company also faced a $5.91 billion unrealized loss in Q1 2025 due to fair-value accounting changes, partially offset by a $1.69 billion tax gain. Despite market volatility and concerns about potential forced sales to meet financial obligations (e.g., $8.21 billion in loans), Saylor remains committed to a “never sell” philosophy, emphasizing Bitcoin’s long-term value.
- **Saylor’s Vision and Market Sentiment**: Saylor continues to promote Bitcoin as a transformative asset, predicting prices could reach $10 million by 2045 if institutional adoption, particularly from banks, accelerates. He recently called Bitcoin a “Newtonian Network” and emphasized its scarcity, referencing a New Testament analogy about feeding 5,000 people with one Bitcoin. Posts on X reflect ongoing enthusiasm among Bitcoin supporters, though critics like Peter Schiff question its volatility and “safe haven” status.
These updates reflect Strategy’s dominant role as the largest corporate Bitcoin holder and Saylor’s unwavering bullish stance, despite market fluctuations and financial complexities. For the most current details, checking Strategy’s SEC filings or Saylor’s X account (@saylor) is recommended, as he often signals purchases there.
