You Won’t Believe How Much Bitcoin Semler Scientific Just Bought!

by

Oh, Semler Scientific, you cheeky little company! So, they’ve gone ahead and dropped around $10 million on Bitcoin since February 14th. Because why not? It’s not like there are other ways to invest. 🙄

Apparently, they purchased 111 shiny new Bitcoins for that price, which means they got them at roughly $90,000 per coin. A small price to pay for a cryptocurrency treasure, right? With this purchase, they’re sitting on over 3,300 Bitcoins worth about $300 million in total. 💰💰

Now, let’s talk about this magical “Bitcoin yield” thing. According to Semler, their stockholders are seeing a glorious Bitcoin yield of 23.5% so far this year. I guess that’s what happens when you add a little crypto to your portfolio? Bitcoin yield is a fancy term for how much exposure each share gets to Bitcoin. Essentially, the more Bitcoin they own, the more each investor gets to feel all fancy and rich. 💸

Semler uses this Bitcoin yield as a Key Performance Indicator—a fancy business term for “we’re doing well, don’t worry.” They said it’s a way to measure if their crypto buying spree is actually benefiting shareholders. So far, it seems like it’s working. Who knew healthcare tech could be so… well… tech-y? 🤷‍♀️

The company’s average price for their Bitcoin haul? A neat $89,000 per coin. But guess what? As of today (April 25), Bitcoin is trading at about $95,000! Look at Semler, making those moves and riding the Bitcoin rollercoaster to the moon. 🚀

Oh, and did I mention that Semler Scientific is, in fact, a healthcare technology company? They’re not just crypto fanatics, they develop and sell medical diagnostic products. But don’t worry, they’re financing their Bitcoin addiction with some *slightly* more traditional methods, like issuing $125 million in new stock. Nothing says “responsible investment” like using stock to fund your Bitcoin obsession, right? 😂

Corporate Bitcoin Buying: The New Trend

Let’s be real. Bitcoin is so hot right now, even companies are jumping on the bandwagon. Back in 2024, Bitcoin’s insane price surge turned Michael Saylor’s company (formerly MicroStrategy) into a crypto empire with a 350% gain. Naturally, other companies saw this and thought, “Well, if they can do it, why can’t we?”

As of now, corporate Bitcoin holdings total about $71 billion. Yep, that’s billion with a “B.” And guess who’s still at the top of the heap? That’s right, Michael Saylor’s Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) with a Bitcoin stash worth a whopping $50 billion. Must be nice, huh? 😏

But wait! It gets better! In mid-April, Strategy went all-in and snagged 6,556 more Bitcoins at an average price of $84,785 each. It’s like they’re playing Monopoly with real money and they’re winning. 🙌

But here’s the kicker—corporate Bitcoin holdings are still trailing behind exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which hold a cool $110 billion in Bitcoin. Corporate treasuries have some catching up to do, but don’t worry—Bitcoin is never dull, right?
