In a groundbreaking achievement, Strategy has distinguished itself as the foremost institutional holder of Bitcoin globally. The company recently completed the purchase of an impressive 3,018 BTC at a cost of $357 million on August 25, elevating its total Bitcoin holdings to a remarkable 632,457 BTC.
As per current Bitcoin market valuations, the total worth of these holdings stands at around $46.502 billion. More significantly, data indicates that Strategy commands over 3% of Bitcoin’s entire circulating supply, a considerable stake in the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Strategy’s Dominance Over Bitcoin Supply
Data from Strategy’s official portal confirms the company’s impressive holdings of 632,457 BTC. Currently, Bitcoin’s total circulating supply is approximately 19,912,106, with a fixed cap of 21 million coins. This means that Strategy now owns about 3.176% of the available Bitcoin.
This expansive ownership reflects the company’s strategic vision, positioning Bitcoin as a fundamental aspect of its treasury management.
Beyond mere symbolism, owning over 3% of Bitcoin’s supply has proved financially beneficial for Strategy. In just the current quarter, its Bitcoin portfolio has appreciated by 4.7%, contributing $3.156 billion in gains. Notably, since the beginning of 2025, the company has experienced a remarkable 25.4% increase in the value of its holdings, which translates to an astounding gain of $12.641 billion.
To put this into perspective, the profits generated from Bitcoin investments in 2025 have already exceeded the total profit of $13.133 billion reported throughout the entire year of 2024. This aggressive buying strategy now aligns the company’s financial performance closely with Bitcoin price movements, suggesting that each uptick in Bitcoin’s value correlates to billions in potential gains.
Vision for the Future Post-3% Achievement
According to insights from Bitcointreasuries.net, Strategy stands out as the largest publicly traded entity holding Bitcoin. Following in second place is the American digital asset company MARA Holdings, which holds 60,639 BTC.
Presently, Strategy finds itself among the top five Bitcoin holders globally, closely following major players like the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, the mysterious creator Satoshi Nakamoto, and renowned Bitcoin ETF issuer BlackRock, which has amassed over 747,000 BTC by August 2025. Moreover, Strategy’s substantial Bitcoin holdings surpass the reserves of the Binance exchange, currently estimated by Coinglass to be around 578,903 BTC.
Though achieving a stake of over 3% in Bitcoin’s circulating supply is a noteworthy accomplishment, Strategy’s ambitions are just beginning. Co-founder and former CEO Michael Saylor has publicly articulated a bold plan to secure up to $100 billion over the next four years to fund the company’s Bitcoin credit initiative. This amount could expand to $200 billion, contingent upon demand for the company’s securities.
As of this writing, Bitcoin prices are hovering around $111,300, reflecting a 0.9% increase within the past 24 hours.
