Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings maintain $7.8B profit amid downturn

Michael Saylor’s company, Strategy, remains in profit on its Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) investments despite a significant market correction.

As of March 10, Strategy holds 499,096 BTC, purchased at an average price of $66,423 per token.

The total investment of $33.1 billion is now valued at $41.2 billion, reflecting an unrealised gain of 24%, or $7.8 billion.

Bitcoin experienced its steepest weekly decline on record, dropping from $93,379 on March 3 to a low of $80,610 on March 10, marking a 13.6% decrease.

Strategy’s investment approach relies on dollar-cost averaging, spreading purchases over time to mitigate price volatility.

This strategy has allowed the company to weather market fluctuations and maintain profitability.

Not all companies investing in Bitcoin have fared as well.

Semler Scientific, which began holding Bitcoin in May 2024, has seen a 6.25% loss on its holdings.

The firm purchased 3,192 BTC at an average price of $87,850 per token, with its current valuation at approximately $262 million—down from its initial investment of over $280 million.

Similarly, Metaplanet, often referred to as “Asia’s Strategy,” is down nearly 1% on its Bitcoin investments.

The company holds 2,888 BTC acquired at an average price of $83,049 and has incurred a loss of over $2 million.

While Strategy’s earlier Bitcoin acquisitions remain profitable, the company faces unrealised losses on recent purchases due to the price drop.

Blockchain analytics firm Lookonchain reports that Strategy spent $23 billion on Bitcoin since November 2024; however, these holdings are now worth $20 billion—an unrealised loss exceeding $3 billion.

Despite the downturn, Strategy continues its long-term commitment to Bitcoin acquisition.

The company recently raised $2 billion through a convertible note offering to fund additional purchases.

This aligns with its broader plan to secure $42 billion in capital for future investments.

At the time of reporting, the Bitcoin (BTC) price was $77,105.20.
