Bitcoin Treasuries Show Divergent Strategies as Price Rebounds
Strategy, a leading corporate treasury holder of Bitcoin, holds an impressive 843,775 coins worth tens of billions of dollars. Its aggressive accumulation strategy has allowed it to maintain dominance through scale.
The company recently sold 3,588 BTC for $216 million to cover a preferred stock dividend, representing less than 0.5% of its total holdings. Strategy uses a combination of equity, convertible debt, and preferred stock to fund its acquisitions.
BlackRock holds a 5% stake in the company, and Strategy's 21/21 plan aims to add $42 billion worth of Bitcoin over the next three years through equity raises and fixed income securities. This will increase its Bitcoin holdings per share.
Metaplanet, another significant player, owns around 43,000 BTC, worth approximately $2.6 billion. It ranks as the third-largest public Bitcoin holder globally and has been expanding its portfolio rapidly.
