MicroStrategy Bitcoin holdings now equivalent to nearly half of Satoshi Nakamoto’s estimated Bitcoin stash


Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has expanded its Bitcoin holdings past 500,000 BTC following its latest acquisition.

In a March 24 filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company disclosed the purchase of 6,911 BTC for approximately $584.1 million, or an average of $84,529 per BTC.

The new addition brings MicroStrategy’s total stash to 506,137 BTC. The company has now spent approximately $33.7 billion on its Bitcoin investments, with an average cost of $66,608 per coin. Given current market prices, the firm holds an unrealized profit estimated at over $10 billion.

It also holds Bitcoin equivalent to nearly half the amount believed to be owned by Bitcoin’s mysterious creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, whose estimated stash is also 1.1 million BTC.
