In a move that confirms his steadfast commitment to the world's largest digital currency, Michael Saylor, founder and chairman of MicroStrategy, announced his company's acquisition of an additional amount of Bitcoin (BTC) worth $531.9 million, in a deal concluded between June 23 and June 29, 2025, at an average price of $106,801 per Bitcoin.
With this purchase, MicroStrategy's holdings increased to 597,235 Bitcoins, bought at a total cost of $42.4 billion, while their current market value exceeds $64 billion, solidifying the company's position as the largest institutional holder of Bitcoin in the world.
Why does Saylor continue to buy despite market volatility?
1. Strategic hedge against inflation
Saylor sees fiat currencies eroding due to expansionary monetary policies, while Bitcoin provides protection thanks to its limited supply (only 21 million units).
2. Strong belief in Bitcoin's long-term performance
Saylor expects Bitcoin to reach a market value exceeding $500 trillion, surpassing gold and real estate, and sees it as "the best form of money the world has ever known."
3. Smart use of leverage
MicroStrategy has invested through stock sales and convertible debt to increase its holdings, taking advantage of price increases to maximize returns.
4. Institutional leadership in adopting Bitcoin
MicroStrategy aims to be a model for other companies and to encourage institutions to adopt Bitcoin as an official reserve asset.
5. Confidence in sustainable growth
With a limited daily supply and increasing demand, Saylor sees the price in an inevitable upward trend, which justifies the continued intensive buying.
Impact on the market
Price support: Every massive purchase adds positive momentum to the market.
Encouraging institutions: MicroStrategy's success boosts institutional investors' confidence in Bitcoin.
Increased trading liquidity: Although the company holds Bitcoin long-term, the purchases boost market activity.
Implications for MSTR stock: MicroStrategy's stock often moves in line with the price of Bitcoin, making it an indirect gateway for investing in BTC.
Are there risks?
Despite criticisms pointing to the company's exposure to significant risks due to market volatility, Saylor remains steadfast in his vision: "Bitcoin is the future, and we are investing in it with all we have."
Outlook
MicroStrategy is preparing to continue purchasing, with no clear ceiling on the size of its holdings, which could open the door to a new institutional wave in the Bitcoin market.
