Strategy’s $78B Bitcoin nears Amazon’s 2nd-largest corporate treasury
Strategy’s $78 billion stash of Bitcoin is close to the cash positions held by Amazon, Google and Microsoft, the last of which rejected Bitcoin as a treasury asset last year.
Strategy’s near-$80 billion Bitcoin treasury is catching up to the massive cash positions of tech giants such as Microsoft, whose shareholders rejected a proposal in December to explore adding Bitcoin to its books.
Strategy posted to X on Tuesday that its 640,031 Bitcoin (BTC) stash briefly topped $80 billion in value on Monday as Bitcoin hit a record high of $126,080, boosting the value of its corporate treasury close to Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, which each hold between $97 billion and $95 billion in cash or cash equivalents.
Strategy’s routine Bitcoin buys, combined with Bitcoin’s rise in value, have already pushed its treasury past the value of Nvidia, Apple and Meta’s — the latter of which considered a proposal to explore making Bitcoin a treasury asset before overwhelmingly voting against it in June.
