The company’s disciplined accumulation and Bitcoin’s rally have already lifted it above Meta, Apple, and Nvidia in overall treasury value.
While Meta and Microsoftrejected shareholder proposals to add Bitcoin to their reserves when BTC was around $100,000, they missed out on significant gains.
Those proposals, led by Ethan Peck of the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), argued that Bitcoin could protect shareholder value from inflation and currency debasement.
JPMorgan analysts have called Bitcoin and gold “debasement trades,” suggesting both act as hedges against inflation and the rising U.S. national debt, now near $38 trillion. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, once a skeptic, said Bitcoin could reach $700,000 amid growing macroeconomic fears.
Strategy’s Bitcoin purchases average $73,981 per coin, giving it roughly $30 billion in unrealized profits, while Tesla remains the only other major firm holding BTC.
