- Aug 04, 2025, 12:29 PMIf you're following Bitcoin's institutional adoption, there's a name you can't ignore: Michael Saylor. As executive chairman and founding figure of MicroStrategy (now rebranded as Strategy), his bold bet on BTC has reshaped corporate treasury norms forever.
🇺🇸 What's in Michael's Personal Wallet?
• In October 2020, Saylor publicly stated he held 17,732 BTC, bought at an average price under $10,000 — roughly $175 million invested at the time.
• Since then, he has not sold a single coin. His diamond‑hand strategy means those coins are still his today, now worth well over $1 billion based on current prices.
💼 MicroStrategy (or Strategy)'s Bitcoin Holdings
• As of December 2024, the company held about 423,650 BTC, valued at nearly $42 billion, making it the largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally.
• That's more than 2% of all Bitcoin in circulation. While those coins belong to the company, Michael's 9.9% equity stake gives him significant indirect exposure.
🧠 Talking Points
• Personal vs Corporate Holdings: While Michael directly owns only 17.7k BTC, his advocacy and lead role in MicroStrategy give him influence over the rest.
• Why transparency matters: We know the numbers because Saylor publicly tweeted them. MicroStrategy's corporate disclosures (including filings and press releases) provide visibility, though exact on‑chain wallet data remains private.
• What it means for crypto markets: When MicroStrategy buys more, the market pays attention. Its moves won't dictate BTC price, but they often influence sentiment and institutional confidence.
💬 Over to the Community
1. Is it misleading to combine Saylor's personal 17,732 BTC with MicroStrategy's holdings when talking market impact?
2. Would you trust a company-managed treasury of Bitcoin more than personal exposure?
3. Do you see corporate "treasury BTC" as the next wave for mainstream adoption—or a massive risk?
