by

Hold onto your hats, folks! Strategy’s bitcoin hoarding escapade has raked in a mind-boggling $5.1 billion gain this year—like Scrooge McDuck diving into his digital gold pool! Investors are electrified, glued to their screens, and possibly asking “Is this real or is that just my cat walking on the keyboard?” 😂💰

Strategy’s Risky Bitcoin Tango: When You Bet Big, You Win Big (Or Possibly Just Buy More Coffee)

Microstrategy, the software smarty now rebranded as Strategy because who needs boring names, dropped some fresh financial hotcakes this Saturday. Executive Chairman Michael Saylor took to the ol’ social media megaphone (now called X—because, why not?) to brag—I mean, share some treasury triumphs:

So far this year, MSTR treasury operations have generated a BTC $ gain of $5.1 billion. That’s right, billion with a B. If you guessed “wow,” you get a virtual high-five! 🖐️

Strategy’s bitcoin treasury operations flexed by Michael Saylor. Picture him with a crown made of digital coins—because why not?

Imagine hoarding 538,200 BTC —that’s like having a golden goose that lays golden bitcoins! At $94,367 per coin, that piggy bank’s now $50.8 billion heavy. And get this: the bitcoin yield for the year-to-date is a snappy 12.1%, which translates to 54,029 BTC worth more than a small moon colony. QTD gains? A casual 1.0%, aka 5,209 BTC, putting nearly half a billion dollars in the kitty. And 2024’s bitcoin yield? A jaw-dropper 74.3%, gaining 140,538 BTC, or about $13.1 billion—enough to buy a spaceship or three. 🚀🌕

Of course, Strategy isn’t just sitting on their crypto laurels—they’re juicing their buying power with debt and preferred stock sales like a caffeinated Wall Street squirrel. Latest spree? Snagging 6,556 BTC for around $555.8 million at an average price of $84,785 per coin. Saylor’s also bragged that in Q1 2025, over 13,000 institutions and a whopping 814,000 retail fans hold MSTR shares. Plus, around 55 million folks are secretly rubbing elbows via ETFs, mutual funds, pension plans, and insurance funds. Basically, bitcoin exposure is the new black. 🕶️

To wrap it all up in classic Saylor style, our fearless bitcoin captain insists:

Bitcoin has no counterparty risk. No company. No country. No creditor. No currency. No competitor. No culture. Not even chaos. It’s like the ultimate party guest who never overstays their welcome—because it just doesn’t need to. 🎉
