Bitcoin investments have received a notable enhancement through a recent purchase of $739.8 million worth of BTC.
In a significant move for the digital currency market, Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, has once again made headlines by purchasing a substantial amount of Bitcoin. The Tysons, Virginia-based company, which initially started as a software firm, has now become the world's largest corporate holder of Bitcoin.
Last week, Strategy bought 6,220 Bitcoin for $739.8 million, adding to its existing holding of 607,770 digital coins. This latest purchase brings the company's total Bitcoin holdings to over $72 billion, according to current prices just below $119,000. Notably, Strategy paused its Bitcoin buying after weekly purchases the previous two months.
Michael Saylor, the CEO of Strategy, confirmed the purchase in a tweet on July 21, 2025, stating that the coins were bought last week at an average price of $118,940. This average price is slightly higher than the overall average price of $71,756 at which Strategy's Bitcoin holdings were previously purchased.
Strategies' stock has seen a significant rise since it pivoted to a Bitcoin strategy. The company's stock is up 2,867% since the shift, with MSTR trading for a little over $435 per share on Monday morning (ET).
The trend of publicly traded companies holding Bitcoin in their treasury isn't limited to Strategy. Other notable examples include BitFuFu, a Singapore-based Bitcoin mining company holding about 1,709 BTC (~$185.85 million), accounting for 40% of its market cap. Cipher Mining, a US-listed company, also holds around 1,063 BTC (~$115.49 million), about 40% of its market cap.
KULR Technology Group, another US-based company, holds approximately 920 BTC (~$100.04 million), about 40% of its market cap. These companies, along with Aker ASA, Méliuz, and MercadoLibre, have all added Bitcoin to their treasuries, often with significant BTC holdings sized to a meaningful share of their market capitalization.
According to a report by bitcointreasuries.net, 155 publicly traded companies hold nearly 870,000 Bitcoin. This trend of companies turning their balance sheets into Bitcoin treasuries or crypto treasury firms has been growing, with smaller companies on the Nasdaq following suit and rebranding as Bitcoin treasury firms.
Bitcoin reached a new high of $122,838 earlier this month, reflecting the growing confidence in the digital currency. The Nasdaq-traded company disclosed this information in an SEC filing.
