Strategy holds 840,447 bitcoins worth US$64.9 billion, moving towards a closed-loop Bitcoin economy

Michael Siler, executive chairman of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), said the company is seeking a new bitcoin accumulation strategy. In recent statements, he described Bitcoin as a way to "transform economic energy into digital form and securely bind it to individuals, families, companies, machines, or countries."

Moving to a closed-loop corporate economy

Thaler's view marks the shift of the company's strategy from simply holding Bitcoin to building a closed-loop corporate economy with the cryptocurrency as the core. This shift is clearly visible in Strategy's latest financial report, which shows that the company currently holds 840,447 bitcoins on its balance sheet, accounting for 4% of the total bitcoin supply, with a reported value of $64.9 billion.

The driving force of "binding energy security to the company" goes far beyond asset accumulation. Strategy is actively working to integrate Bitcoin into its operational and financial instruments, positioning the cryptocurrency at the heart of the corporate ecosystem.

Financial structure and stress testing

Although this model is innovative, it still faces continued market volatility. Strategy's positions suffered huge unrealized losses during periods of market stress. It was not until after Bitcoin prices rose sharply earlier this week that the company reported unrealized net gains of $1.4 billion.

Strategy has also launched a $13.37 billion digital credit unit that uses Bitcoin as collateral to issue tokenized debt with fixed income. This arrangement effectively introduced the digital value of Bitcoin into the corporate debt market.

Dictionary: Tokenized debt is a financial instrument that represents a debt or claim on the underlying asset and exists in the form of digital tokens, allowing programmable rules and faster transfers.

The recent fall of the flagship token STRC below its face value has tested this structure. Instead of liquidating its Bitcoin collateral, Strategy used fiat currency reserves to buy back debt, bringing the STRC back to $96.22. This response demonstrates the company's commitment to using Bitcoin not only as a passive asset, but also as a dynamic basis for corporate financing.

Holdings: 840,447 BTC
Bitcoin holding value: US$64.9 billion
Proportion of Bitcoin supply: 4%
Digital credit size: US$13.37 billion
Net unrealized gains (after Bitcoin soared): US$1.4 billion

Thaler explained that Bitcoin can convert economic energy into digital form, securely connecting to individuals, companies and even entire countries.

Continued market dependence

Despite efforts to create a self-sufficient digital economy, the long-term stability of the Strategy model still depends on the broader financial market cycle. The company attempts to lock in value through bitcoin-backed debt, but the practice still faces the dual risks of cryptocurrency and traditional market volatility.

Industry insiders are closely watching Strategy's approach as a potential template for integrating digital assets into mainstream corporate finance.

As the interaction between cryptocurrencies and the established financial system continues to evolve, the effect of binding "economic energy" to digital codes is likely to be tested in future market dynamics.
