Despite the ongoing price correction in Bitcoin (BTC), MicroStrategy (MSTR), the largest corporate BTC holder, has once again made a significant investment in BTC. Before the opening bell of the U.S. market, MicroStrategy’s chair and founder, Michael Saylor announced on X (formerly Twitter) that the company had acquired an additional 15,400 BTC worth $1.5 billion.

MicroStrategy’s Latest Bitcoin Purchase

Sayler in a post on X, added that they have acquired this notable BTC at an average price of $95,976 per Bitcoin. With a Bitcoin yield of 38.7% quarter-to-date (QTD) and 63.3% year-to-date (YTD), MicroStrategy’s strategy has delivered remarkable returns.

With the recent acquisitions, MicroStrategy’s holdings have soared to 402,100 BTC, which the firm acquired over four years for a total of $23.4 billion at an average price of $58,263 per Bitcoin.

Bitcoin Adoption by Industry Giant

These ongoing acquisitions not only establish MSTR as a major BTC holder but also continue to inspire other firms to adopt BTC, as previously reported by CoinPedia. In November alone, a prominent medical firm, Semler Scientific, acquired $30 million worth of BTC, while the AI company Genius Group purchased $120 million worth of BTC.

This adoption of Bitcoin signals potential buying opportunities before it’s too late. Currently, BTC seems to be consolidating within a narrow range after a significant upward rally triggered by the presidential election results in the United States.

BTC Price Momentum

At press time, Bitcoin is trading near $95,700 and has registered a price drop of 1.56% in the past 24 hours. During the same period, its trading volume surged by 70%, signaling significant activity from traders and investors amid bullish market sentiment.
