The MicroStrategy company, led by Michael Saylor, once again confirmed its investment strategy. On December 15, 2025, it announced the purchase of an additional 10,645 Bitcoins (BTC) for approximately $980.3 million. The transaction was executed at an average price of $92,098 per coin, raising the company’s total holdings to 671,268 BTC. These bitcoins were acquired for a total of $50.33 billion, at an average purchase price of about $74,972 per BTC.
MicroStrategy’s strategy is based on treating Bitcoin as a key reserve asset, which allowed the company to achieve a return on investment of 24.9% since the beginning of 2025. This is an impressive result, given the volatility of the cryptocurrency market. The company has been systematically increasing its BTC holdings since 2020, becoming the largest corporate holder of this cryptocurrency in the world. Its presence in the prestigious Nasdaq-100 index further strengthens MicroStrategy’s financial position, providing access to passive investments from index funds and ETFs.
Paradoxically, despite such a significant purchase by an institution, the market reaction was negative. Instead of rising, the Bitcoin price fell below $90,000, reaching a local low around $86,800. The decline amounted to about 1.47%, and trading volume exceeded 90,000 BTC, indicating high activity and possible selling by other investors. Experts explain this phenomenon with several factors: OTC (off-exchange) transactions do not immediately affect the spot price, and the cryptocurrency market is prone to emotional reactions such as fear of missing out (FOMO) or uncertainty (FUD). Adding to the uncertainty is the planned interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan (BOJ).
This purchase is a signal that institutions still believe in Bitcoin’s long-term potential despite short-term fluctuations. For individual investors, it is a reminder of the risks associated with cryptocurrencies – even positive events can lead to price corrections. Will the BTC price rebound in the near future? The market remains unpredictable, but Saylor’s strategy appears consistent and future-oriented.
