Corporate Bitcoin Purchases Rise as Firms Announce BTC Plans
A surge of companies have acquired or announced intentions to acquire Bitcoin today, highlighting a fast-growing global wave of corporate BTC accumulation. The broader impact on Bitcoin’s ecosystem remains uncertain. Last week, public firms allocated $275 million to BTC, nearly matched today by Metaplanet alone. Strategy, Semler Scientific, Genius Group, and others also confirmed their own commitments.

ShowCompanies Ramp Up Bitcoin Accumulation
An increasing cohort of global firms is snapping up and hoarding Bitcoin, outstripping even major BTC ETF issuers in demand.
Today saw multiple corporations reveal sizable new purchases or future plans, underscoring the trend’s immense scope.
For instance, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) intends to raise $4.2 billion for BTC acquisitions.
As outlined in its press release, the company will issue a large tranche of STRD stock to finance further Bitcoin buys.
Although Strategy has already invested over $1 billion in BTC several times this year, this proposed outlay would dwarf prior commitments, marking its most ambitious purchase yet.
Metaplanet—ranked among the top five public Bitcoin holders—bought 2,205 BTC today, spending roughly $238.8 million at current market rates.
That single-day haul nearly equals last week’s total corporate spend of $275 million, suggesting the pace of acquisitions may be accelerating.
Genius Group, which last week spent $2.1 million on BTC, raised its target Bitcoin reserve from 1,000 to 10,000 today.
The firm plans to tap a “balanced mix of funding sources,” including operating revenues, BTC-generated yields, and stock offerings, to fuel its expansion.
Meanwhile, DDC Enterprises added 230 BTC to its holdings today—up from 122 previously—and Semler Scientific committed $20 million to new purchases, maintaining its steady growth trajectory. Several other companies also completed smaller-scale buys.
All of these moves prompt a critical question: how will such aggressive corporate buying activity affect Bitcoin?
Some analysts warn of bubble risks, especially as institutional holders outperform BTC itself. Market reactions remain unpredictable, but one outcome seems certain: corporate appetite for Bitcoin shows no signs of slowing.
Final Words
Corporate interest in Bitcoin shows no signs of slowing, with firms making record purchases that could reshape BTC’s market dynamics and liquidity.
