Crypto Giant Strategy Gobbles 4,225 BTC in Bold Power Move—Bitcoin Treasury Nears $73B

Another day, another whale swallowing Bitcoin whole. Institutional player Strategy just dropped a cool $73 billion (give or take) on 4,225 fresh BTC—because apparently your portfolio wasn't insecure enough already.

Why This Isn't Your Average Crypto Shopping Spree

While retail traders panic-sell over Elon's latest tweet, the big boys are stacking sats like doomsday preppers. This buy signals either unshakable conviction or terrifying groupthink—pick your narrative.

The $73 Billion Elephant in the Room

That treasury figure isn't just a flex—it's a calculated bet that Bitcoin remains the ultimate 'screw you' to traditional finance. JPMorgan analysts currently hyperventilating into their gold-plated paper bags.

One cynical footnote: Nothing says 'healthy market' like a single entity controlling enough BTC to crash—or pump—the entire ecosystem on a whim. Decentralization theater at its finest.

As of July 13, the preferred stock instruments have an estimated $7.35 billion annual run rate and have helped the company achieve a Bitcoin Yield of 20.2% year-to-date. This yield reflects the ratio of BTC holdings to diluted shares and is used to measure value creation from BTC without liquidating assets.

Metaplanet acquires additional Bitcoin

On July 14, Tokyo-based Metaplanet announced the acquisition of 797 BTC for $93.6 million, paying an average of $117,451 per coin.

The firm now holds a total of 16,352 BTC, acquired at an average entry price of $100,191, with a cumulative cost basis of $1.64 billion.

Dubbed “Asia’s MicroStrategy” for its aggressive Bitcoin strategy, Metaplanet has seen outsized returns in 2025. The company reports a Bitcoin Yield of 435.9% year-to-date, a staggering gain that reflects its favorable BTC-to-share performance over the period.

Metaplanet now ranks as the fifth-largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, surpassing other notable firms such as Galaxy Digital, CleanSpark, and Tesla.
