MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor made headlines today by announcing the company's acquisition of 10,107 Bitcoin for $1.1 billion, just six days after a similar purchase. This move aligns with MicroStrategy's growing trend of Bitcoin acquisitions.
To fund this latest purchase, MicroStrategy utilized proceeds from a recent sales agreement. Following this acquisition, the company now holds a total of 471,107 Bitcoins.
Saylor's consistent Bitcoin purchases have solidified MicroStrategy's position as one of the world's leading Bitcoin holders. In his latest social media announcement, Saylor revealed the details of the acquisition, marking MicroStrategy's fourth Bitcoin purchase of January 2025.
In a statement, Saylor shared, “MicroStrategy has acquired 10,107 BTC for approximately $1.1 billion at an average price of $105,596 per Bitcoin, resulting in a BTC Yield of 2.90% Year-to-Date 2025. As of 1/26/2025, we hold 471,107 BTC acquired for around $30.4 billion at an average price of $64,511 per Bitcoin.”
The Bitcoin purchases took place between January 21 and January 26, with MicroStrategy selling 2,765,157 shares during the same period, generating $1.1 billion in revenue.
Despite fluctuations in Bitcoin prices, MicroStrategy remains steadfast in its BTC-first strategy. The company had previously explored a major stock offering to raise capital for future Bitcoin acquisitions and unveiled plans to secure $2 billion through a perpetual preferred stock offering.
Following today's acquisition, MicroStrategy's stock experienced a slight decline amid wider market concerns but has still seen a 14% increase this month. The company's stock performance will play a key role in determining the scope of its future Bitcoin acquisitions as it continues to navigate market cycles.
