In fact, the Tokyo-based firm has a target of buying 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025. With more than six months left to go and about 30% shy of the target, the company could even surpass the 10K BTC mark if the aggressive buying trend remains on track. The firm uses the Strategy playbook, including the capital raising model based on debt and equity issuance.

Overall, the BTC adoption by countries and firms (public and private) accounts for 15% of the total supply (over 3 million BTC) or $330B. Simply put, institutional and nation-state adoption has become a significant catalyst for the BTC price.
