  • The average purchase price for the new acquisition was $106,801 per coin.
  • The company has now spent approximately $42.4 billion on Bitcoin since it began accumulating the crypto.
  • According to data from Bitcoin Treasuries, 134 public companies now hold bitcoin on their balance sheets.

Michael Saylor’s Strategy, the largest public holder of Bitcoin, added 4,980 BTC to its balance sheet last week, according to a US Securities and Exchange Commission filing on Monday.

The purchase, valued at $531.1 million, came as Bitcoin rallied from around $101,000 to above $108,000 during the final week of June, per CoinGecko data.

The average purchase price for the new acquisition was $106,801 per coin, bringing the firm’s total Bitcoin holdings to 597,325 BTC.

The company has now spent approximately $42.4 billion on Bitcoin since it began accumulating the cryptocurrency, with an average purchase price of $70,982 per BTC.

The Bitcoin ‘Strategy’

Strategy funded its latest purchase using proceeds from its active at-the-market (ATM) offerings.

Last week, the firm sold 1,354,500 shares of its Class A common stock (MSTR) for $519.5 million.

It also sold 276,071 shares of its Strike preferred stock (STRK) for $28.9 million and 284,225 shares of its Strife preferred stock (STRF) for $29.7 million.

Following the latest acquisition, Strategy’s year-to-date gain in Bitcoin now totals 85,871 BTC, compared with a full-year gain of 140,538 BTC in 2024.

That equates to a $9.5 billion BTC gain this year, according to the company’s internal figures.

The company also reported modest increases in its yield metrics.

Year-to-date Bitcoin yield rose by 0.5 percentage points to 19.7%, inching closer to Strategy’s goal of 25% yield by the end of 2025.

Quarter-to-date yield also edged up by 0.4 percentage points to 7.8%.

More BTC buys may be on the way for Strategy?

On Sunday, Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor had again hinted at a potential upcoming bitcoin purchase, updating the company’s bitcoin portfolio tracker on Sunday with the remark, “In 21 years, you’ll wish you’d bought more.”

Strategy has acquired 4,980 BTC for ~$531.9 million at ~$106,801 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 19.7% YTD 2025. As of 6/29/2025, we hodl 597,325 $BTC acquired for ~$42.40 billion at ~$70,982 per bitcoin. $MSTR $STRK $STRF $STRD https://t.co/xvWnSkfukS

The comment echoes his BTC Prague keynote, where he projected Bitcoin’s value could reach $21 million per coin within two decades.

Between June 16 and June 22, Strategy acquired an additional 245 BTC for approximately $26 million at an average price of $105,586 per bitcoin.

The company had slowed its purchasing pace in recent weeks as it shifted focus from its at-the-market (ATM) common stock program to issuing perpetual preferred shares to finance further acquisitions.

The latest purchase marks a return to using the MSTR ATM after more than a month.

According to data from Bitcoin Treasuries, 134 public companies now hold bitcoin on their balance sheets, continuing the trend initiated by Saylor and MicroStrategy.

Recent adopters include Tether-backed Twenty One, Nakamoto, Trump Media, and GameStop, alongside earlier entrants such as Semler Scientific and KULR Technology Group.

Japanese firm Metaplanet also announced on Monday that it had added 1,005 BTC to its reserves, raising its total holdings to 13,350 BTC—surpassing those of Galaxy Digital and CleanSpark.

Deutsche Bank: The "fifth wave of tech stock rally" in US stocks since late July has peaked, prepare for a "V-shaped reversal"

Deutsche Bank has downgraded its rating on US technology stocks from overweight to neutral, noting that the fifth round of tech stock rally since July 29 is approaching the upper boundary of the long-term trend channel. The current upside potential is only about 4 percentage points, while historical trends indicate downside risks could reach 16 percentage points. Funds are expected to rotate into other sectors, and the European market, with its lower tech exposure, is likely to benefit relatively. However, Deutsche Bank emphasized that the long-term outperformance trend of technology stocks remains unchanged.

How expensive is AI computing power rental in the US? "Spot price" is twice that of long-term contracts, and four times the return threshold for cloud service providers.

The short-term spot leasing price for AI computing power reaches as high as $40 to $50 billion per gigawatt per year, while the price for long-term contracts is only $20 billion per year, and the breakeven threshold for supercomputing cloud operators is around $12 billion per year. However, according to Goldman Sachs, the fundamental reason why hyperscale cloud providers like Google rent computing power at such significant premiums is that their in-house capacity cannot keep up; once their own capacity catches up, the spot premium will disappear.
