MicroStrategy’s Race to 1 Million Bitcoin This Year Would Mean Buying 6,158 BTC Weekly

CoinDesk’s analysis outlines a roughly $22.2 billion buying plan funded via recent stock and preferred share issuance.

Overview

  • MicroStrategy holds 738,731 BTC as of last week, according to recent disclosures cited by CoinDesk.
  • Reaching 1 million coins by Dec. 31 would require acquiring an additional 261,269 BTC, estimated at $22.2 billion at an $85,000 average price.
  • That pace equates to deploying about $523 million per week, highlighting the scale of capital access needed to maintain buying.
  • The company bought 17,994 BTC last week, and STRC preferred issuance from Monday to Thursday pointed to funding for roughly 11,000 BTC, with further capacity from at-the-market common stock sales.
  • CoinDesk notes the goal may be achievable given recent momentum, while bitcoin trades near $71,000 during a volatile market backdrop.
