MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor has announced plans to buy around $112,194 worth of new Bitcoin (BTC). If the purchase is completed, it will be the company’s third acquisition in August.
The most recent purchase took place on August 18, when MicroStrategy bought 430 BTC for $51.4 million, bringing the company’s total holdings to 629,376 BTC, worth over $72 billion at this time.
According to data from SaylorTracker, MicroStrategy’s BTC investments have increased by over 56%, with its profits reaching around $25.8 billion at current prices.
However, the company’s Bitcoin purchases in August were relatively small compared to previous ones.
MicroStrategy only bought 585 BTC in two separate transactions this month, whereas they typically acquire thousands or tens of thousands of BTC per purchase.
MicroStrategy continues to be the leader in corporate BTC ownership and remains the world’s largest Bitcoin treasury company. Michael Saylor has also been an active supporter of Bitcoin among individual and institutional investors, spurring a movement in the corporate finance sector.
Despite the company's stock price declining in the second half of 2025, MicroStrategy has continued to buy BTC for its corporate treasury.
On Wednesday, its shares fell to a near four-month low of around $325 per share, before rebounding to around $358 per share on Friday.
