Two prominent names – Strategy (MicroStrategy) and Metaplanet – have recently caused a stir in the crypto market by announcing they have spent a total of nearly $870 million to buy Bitcoin, contributing to pushing BTC prices over $106,000 last weekend, nearing historical highs.



MicroStrategy increases its BTC holdings to over 576,000 coins


Michael Saylor – founder #Strategy – confirmed the company has purchased an additional 7,390 BTC for $764.9 million, bringing their total Bitcoin holdings to 576,230 BTC, equivalent to 2.74% of the total supply of the entire Bitcoin network.


Although there was initially a typographical error that caused many to mistakenly believe the deal was worth $764.9 billion, the post was quickly corrected.


Saylor continues to urge the community: “Buy Bitcoin before there’s nothing left to buy.” He predicts the Bitcoin frenzy could end in January 2035 – a timeline that is generating much debate within the community.



Metaplanet – “MicroStrategy of Asia” is accelerating


Meanwhile, Metaplanet – a company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange – also announced it has purchased an additional 1,004 $BTC for $104.8 million. In total, the company now holds 7,800 BTC, worth approximately $803.7 million, with an estimated profit margin of 12.7%.


Metaplanet aims to own 10,000 BTC before the end of 2025, and this transaction indicates they are on the right track. However, the company's Bitcoin investment yield is on the decline: from 309.8% at the end of 2024 down to 95.6% in Q1 2025, and only 47.8% in Q2 as of May 19.



Yields and stocks also “follow” Bitcoin


In the year 2025 alone, MicroStrategy recorded a BTC yield of 16.3%. The company's MSTR stock also surged by 25.8% within a month, largely thanks to Bitcoin's price increase.



Impact on the crypto market and Binance users


The fact that two major companies are aggressively buying large amounts of Bitcoin shows a growing confidence in BTC's role as a long-term store of value. With prices approaching old highs and the buying pressure from institutions showing no signs of stopping, the market may enter a new growth cycle.


Binance users can take advantage of this period to monitor institutional investment trends while reassessing their BTC holding or trading strategies, especially in the context of a market that may experience significant volatility in the near future.



⚠️ Risk warning


Investing in cryptocurrency always comes with significant risks. Coin prices can be highly volatile in a short period, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Please consider carefully before making an investment decision and do not use borrowed funds or money needed for essential needs to invest in crypto. #anhbacong
