Key Takeaways
- Strategy plans to raise $84 billion to buy more Bitcoin.
- It already holds 553,000 BTC, worth over $37.9 billion.
- The new 42/42 Plan doubles its previous bitcoin acquisition strategy.
Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has announced its “42/42 Capital Plan,” a bold move to raise $84 billion over the next two years to buy more Bitcoin.
The plan will split fundraising equally between equity sales ($42 billion) and debt issuance ($42 billion).
Current Bitcoin holdings & strategy
The company already owns 553,000 BTC, acquired for $37.9 billion at an average price of $68,500.
At current market rates, these holdings are over 40% in profit.
The new strategy doubles its previous “21/21 Plan,” launched just six months ago.
Executive Chairman’s statement
Michael Saylor, Strategy’s executive chairman, said the new plan reflects their belief in Bitcoin as a long-term asset.
He added that the company is fully committed to the digital asset, saying:
It’s all about Bitcoin.
Financial performance & outlook
Despite reporting a Q1 2025 net loss of $4.2 billion — largely due to new accounting rules that require marking Bitcoin to market — Strategy remains optimistic.
It raised its 2025 Bitcoin yield target from 15% to 25%, and its projected dollar gain from $10 billion to $15 billion.
Institutional appeal & market impact
Investment firm Bernstein called Strategy the “most scalable bitcoin vehicle,” especially appealing to institutional investors who can’t directly access spot Bitcoin ETFs.
Market position & future developments
Currently, Strategy’s Bitcoin stash represents 2.63% of all Bitcoin in existence.
Its stock price rose 3% following the announcement, signaling continued investor confidence.
The company is also developing new financial instruments like STRK and STRF to attract a broader investor base.
