MicroStrategy holds 597,325 Bitcoin, worth more than $42 billion. This positions the company as the largest corporate Bitcoin holder. Its stock has risen 43.3% since January, although it still trades 9.2% below its 52-week high of $473.83, which it hit in November 2024.

According to the company, MicroStrategy is set to post $14 billion in unrealized Bitcoin gains for the second quarter of 2025. CEO Michael Saylor stated that the company might keep its Bitcoin holdings for decades, citing expectations that “demand would rise tenfold with a lesser supply and generate more profits than imagined.” If Bitcoin’s price exceeds $1 million, Saylor and the firm could see even larger unrealized profits.

Cryptocurrency-related stocks also rose as Bitcoin traded at all-time highs. Shares of mining companies MARA Holdings and Riot Platforms increased by about 4% and 2% respectively. Crypto platform Bitunix noted that once Bitcoin moved past the $112,000 mark, short sellers—traders betting against the price—covered their positions, helping push prices higher. More broadly, the crypto market remains bullish and is projecting further gains for Bitcoin.

At present, MicroStrategy trades near the top of its 52-week range and above its 200-day moving average, a technical indicator showing long-term price trends. CNN analysts project that the company’s shares could rise as much as 51% to $650 in the next 12 months. For more on short selling, see Investopedia’s guide.
