Strategy buys 13,390 Bitcoins, now holds 568,840 BTC
  • Strategy bought a fresh batch of 13,390 BTC for approximately $1.34 billion at $99,856 per Bitcoin.
  • The company’s total Bitcoin holdings increased to 568,840 BTC valued at $39.41 billion.
  • Year-to-date Bitcoin yield reaches 15.5% for 2025.

Strategy has expanded its Bitcoin treasury with another major purchase, according to an announcement from company executive Michael Saylor.

The company purchased 13,390 BTC for approximately $1.34 billion at an average price of $99,856 per Bitcoin. This latest investment brings Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to 568,840 BTC.

Strategy buys 13,390 Bitcoins

Strategy has completed another major Bitcoin acquisition and purchased 13,390 BTC for approximately $1.34 billion at an average price of $99,856 per bitcoin. This investment is the company’s latest reported purchase above the $99,000 threshold.

According to the announcement, this latest purchase contributes to Strategy’s Bitcoin yield of 15.5% year-to-date for 2025. The Bitcoin yield metric, frequently highlighted by Saylor, measures the performance of the company’s Bitcoin holdings during the calendar year.

This purchase follows a series of acquisitions made in recent months. This includes the purchase of 1,895 BTC for $180.3 million at $95,167 per Bitcoin, announced on May 5. The data shows that Strategy has increased both the size and frequency of its Bitcoin purchases in 2025.

The timing of this purchase coincides with Bitcoin’s recent price movements above $100,000.

Based on Saylortracker data, Strategy’s May 5 purchase has already generated a profit of approximately $16.8 million in just six days. This shows a 9.32% return. The company’s April 28 purchase of 15,355 BTC at $92,737 has performed even better, with a current profit of $177.1 million. This is a 12.47% gain.

Holdings reach 568,840 BTC

With this latest purchase, Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings have grown to 568,840 BTC. The stash was purchased for approximately $39.41 billion at an average price of $69,287 per coin. This is an increase of 13,390 BTC from the previously reported 555,450 BTC on May 5.

The company’s average acquisition price has risen from $68,550 to $69,287 per Bitcoin. This upward shift in average cost has drawn criticism from some market observers, including gold advocate Peter Schiff.

Schiff commented on Saylor’s announcement: “You next buy will likely push your average cost above $70,000. The next leg down in Bitcoin will likely push the market price below your average cost.”

Schiff argued that this is not good, considering how much Saylor borrowed to purchase the BTC. He mentioned that when he sells, small paper losses will become huge real losses.

Despite such criticism, Strategy‘s Bitcoin holdings now represent approximately 2.7% of Bitcoin’s total supply cap of 21 million coins. At current market prices around $104,000 per Bitcoin, the company’s holdings would be valued at approximately $59.2 billion. This is an unrealized gain of about $19.8 billion or 50.2% on its total investment.

The April 21 purchase of 6,556 BTC at $84,785 now shows a profit of $126.1 million (22.69%), while their April 14 acquisition of 3,459 BTC at $82,618 shows a gain of $74 million (25.88%).
