Why does Strategy hold so much Bitcoin?

In 2020, Strategy became the first public company to adopt Bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. Since then it’s only doubled down on this approach.

The company, led by Bitcoin advocate Michael Saylor, believes Bitcoin is a better long-term store of value than cash. With inflation eroding the value of fiat currencies, Strategy argues that Bitcoin offers protection and as well as the potential for massive upside.

By mid-2025, Strategy had accumulated more than 600,000 Bitcoin, making it the largest public corporate holder in the world. It continues to raise funds to buy more BTC, a move that has helped attract crypto-focused investors but also raised eyebrows among traditional analysts.

So while Strategy still sells enterprise software, its identity today is strongly tied to Bitcoin, with its share price often moving in line with the crypto market.

Have MicroStrategy Incorporated's shares ever split?

MicroStrategy Incorporated's shares were split on a 10:1 basis on 7 August 2024. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 10 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your MicroStrategy Incorporated shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 90% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for MicroStrategy Incorporated shares which in turn could have impacted MicroStrategy Incorporated's share price.

Is it a good time to buy MicroStrategy Incorporated stock?

The technical analysis gauge below displays real-time ratings for the timeframes you select. However, this is not a recommendation. It represents a technical analysis based on the most popular technical indicators: Moving Averages, Oscillators and Pivots. Finder might not concur and takes no responsibility.

Is it worth buying MicroStrategy Incorporated stock?

Valuing MicroStrategy Incorporated stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of MicroStrategy Incorporated's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

MicroStrategy Incorporated's PEG ratio

MicroStrategy Incorporated's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.8502. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into MicroStrategy Incorporated's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

MicroStrategy Incorporated share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, MicroStrategy Incorporated's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$104.17 up to US$457.22. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta measures a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while MicroStrategy Incorporated's is 3.633. This would suggest that MicroStrategy Incorporated's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.

"Strategy has become the poster child for corporate Bitcoin adoption. For investors who believe in the long-term value of crypto but prefer the structure of traditional equities, this company offers a unique blend of enterprise software and digital asset exposure."
