- BTC News: MicroStrategy Seeks Another $500M to Expand Bitcoin HoldingsMicroStrategy plans to raise $500 million to expand its Bitcoin holdings, with 499,226 BTC now in its corporate treasury.
- MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin investments have an unrealized profit of $2.8 billion, but risks remain if Bitcoin prices dip below $66,380.
MicroStrategy, the business intelligence firm led by Michael Saylor, has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to raise $500 million by offering shares. The company plans to use the money earned from this offering to increase its Bitcoin holdings. Currently, MicroStrategy owns nearly 500,000 BTC, making it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin.
In the SEC filing, MicroStrategy revealed its intention to offer 5 million shares of its 10.00% Series A Perpetual Strife Preferred Stock. With a stated value of $100 per share, the offering is expected to raise $500 million.
The company stated the funds would be allocated for general corporate purposes, including Bitcoin acquisition. However, the filing also acknowledged the risks associated with Bitcoin price volatility, noting that there could be major fluctuations in the value of Bitcoin purchased with these proceeds.
MicroStrategy’s latest filing comes shortly after it acquired 130 BTC for $10.7 million at an average price of $82,981 per Bitcoin. This purchase increased the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 499,226 BTC. The company’s average purchase price for its Bitcoin is $66,360 per coin.
The Firm’s Bitcoin Acquisition History
MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin journey began in August 2020 when it first purchased 21,454 BTC for $250 million at an average price of $11,653 per Bitcoin. Since then, the firm has continuously added to its Bitcoin holdings, funding many purchases through debt and share offerings. By 2021, the company had raised large funds through convertible notes and senior secured notes, using the capital to purchase more BTC, often during market dips.
In 2021, MicroStrategy spent over $1 billion to acquire additional Bitcoin. By 2022, when the crypto market experienced price declines, MicroStrategy continued its buying spree. The company made purchases even when Bitcoin’s price dipped below $16,000. Despite the volatile market, Saylor’s strategy focused on long-term accumulation, which paid off as Bitcoin prices began to recover in 2023.
Bitcoin Holdings as of 2025
As of March 2025, MicroStrategy holds 499,226 BTC, with a combined market value of $35.9 billion at current Bitcoin prices above $82,589. The company’s average purchase price for its Bitcoin is $66,380 per coin, meaning the firm has an unrealized profit of approximately $2.8 billion.
However, the company’s Bitcoin investments are not without risk. If Bitcoin drops below $66,380 per coin, MicroStrategy could see its Bitcoin holdings turn negative, possibly leading to financial losses. Given Bitcoin’s price volatility, such a scenario remains a possibility, emphasizing the inherent risk in the firm’s aggressive acquisition strategy.
However, as of press time, Bitcoin was trading at $81,270.81, recording a decline of 1.87% over the last 24 hours. The market cap has also dropped by 2.13%, with a trading volume of $24.43 billion during the same period.
