You see MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor back in the Bitcoin headlines, this time purchasing $101 million worth of Bitcoin, the first such buy of 2025. While this sum is substantial, you’ll recall previous buys reaching into the billions.
If you’ve been watching MicroStrategy, you’ll remember it once threw around $5 billion at a time on BTC. Now, although Saylor’s public statements don’t show any willingness to slow down, you notice the pace of purchases has clearly tapered off in recent months.
Saylor’s latest figures claim:
“MicroStrategy acquired 1,070 BTC at about $94,004 per coin, netting a 48.0% profit in Q4 2024 and 74.3% for 2024 overall. As of January 5, 2025, we hold 447,470 BTC, bought for about $27.97 billion at $62,503 each on average.”
These smaller purchases follow high-profile acquisitions of $5.4 billion, then $2.1 billion, $1.5 billion, and so on, ultimately dropping to $561 million and $209 million by December.
Some analysts suggest MicroStrategy is running out of cash. Yet Saylor just announced a $2 billion stock offering intended for more Bitcoin buys and he’s been urging the U.S. government to start purchasing as well. So, if you’re wondering whether Saylor’s run is over, it doesn’t look like he’s pumping the brakes on his Bitcoin strategy anytime soon.
