Strategic equities and the Treasury moves attracted new attention after the company’s executive chairman compared it to the profits of the so-called epic seven-tech giant. Short and dull: The strategy is leaning hard towards Bitcoin, and recent numbers are impressive cases.
Strategic Bitcoin Transport and Returns
According to a post by Michael Saylor, the strategy currently holds around 638,460 BTC after purchasing 1,955 BTC at an average price of nearly 111,196. The company spent about $47 billion including costs to build that stack at an average purchase price of $73,880.
Based on the report, the current value of these holdings is approximately $71 billion. These numbers sit at the heart of Sillorer’s argument that his company’s balance sheet strategy has been rewarded in ways typical technological plays do not.
Comparison of open interest and market capitalization
Saylor also shared a chart that matches open interest in market capitalization. The strategy tops that metric at 100%, with Tesla signing up at 26%. The remaining 7 of the epic 7 – Nvidia, Meta, Alphabet, Apple, Amazon and Microsoft have far below the reading of strategy.
According to his post, the comparison underpins the claim that the market dynamics of strategies related to Bitcoin outweigh many heavyweight technology names.

Magnificent 7-faced headwind
Based on the report, each of these large tech companies deals with a variety of pressures. Apple and Microsoft face more stringent regulatory checks.
Amazon is slowing consumer demand. Tesla must compete with increasing competition in electric vehicles. Nvidia remains a strong performer due to the demand for AI chips, but even Nvidia’s run this year is not in line with previous explosive profits.
Saylor’s annual returns were 91% strategy, Nvidia 72%, Tesla 32%, 26% Alphabet and Meta 23%. Microsoft, Apple and Amazon showed a significant drop in annual profits in their comparisons.
Other companies are also buying bitcoin
The report revealed that around 12 companies, led by the strategy’s 1,955 BTC purchases, had increased their Bitcoin Holdings last week. Gemini added 1,191 BTC and Bitdeer won 333.5 BTC.
Companies from Japanese Metaplanet to Chinese Cango and US company Volcon have also added coins. According to Bitcointreasuries.net, the 100 largest public holders currently manage 1,009,202 BTC, which is valued at over $117 billion today.
Bitcoin may be the answer
“What is your strategy to beat the epic 7?” Saylor asks X, suggesting Bitcoin (his company’s bold Treasury bet) and provides the answer.
Whether investors see it as a challenge or a warning depends on the weight of Bitcoin exposure to traditional technology growth.
