The post MicroStrategy Records $15 Billion Profit as Bitcoin Hits All-Time High appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
MicroStrategy (MSTR) is back in the spotlight, and this time, it’s not just about Bitcoin buys. With BTC hitting a new all-time high of $109,500, the firm is set to record a staggering $15 billion gain in a single quarter, positioning it for entry into the S&P 500 for the first time ever. But beyond the numbers, industry watchers like Jeff Walton believe MSTR is quietly shaping the entire crypto investment landscape.
The Apex Bitcoin Holder
According to Walton, MSTR has accumulated 324,000 BTC in the last 8 months alone, an amount that surpasses the combined holdings of every other company with Bitcoin on their balance sheet by 105,000 BTC. This makes MicroStrategy the undisputed leader in corporate Bitcoin holdings.
While short-term market swings may raise eyebrows, Walton urges investors to “zoom out.” He argues that MicroStrategy’s aggressive accumulation isn’t just about speculative plays, it’s about long-term structural shifts. “This ecosystem exists because of MSTR’s continued accumulation,” he said.
Not Just Holding—Redefining Investment Infrastructure
Walton further calls MicroStrategy the “500 lb Gorilla” of crypto, meaning it’s the biggest and most powerful player in the space. He believes the company can pull money out of traditional markets like real estate and bonds and redirect it into Bitcoin using smart financial tools like STRK and STRF.
He also says MicroStrategy is “the moon that controls gravity,” meaning its moves have a big impact on the whole crypto market. When MSTR makes a move, it influences everything around it.
Strong Performance Since the 21/21 Plan
Since announcing its “21/21 plan” on October 30, 2024, MicroStrategy’s stock has surged 63.9%, outperforming Bitcoin’s own 47.1% rise in the same period. While critics argue that the growth could be even better, Walton counters that the current trajectory is impressive enough and the future holds more promise.
I’m sure a good chunk of the “negative on MSTR” folks are bots or engagement farming. I for one appreciate your signal though the noise right now

MSTR is the kind of stock I’d like to keep for decades and Saylor is building a foundation of granite to make this feasible.

He also noted that most of the recent FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) around MicroStrategy comes from low-engagement accounts, possibly bots or trolls, echoing the sentiment manipulation seen in stocks like GME.
S&P 500 Entry Could Change the Game
BTC ATH!$MSTR Q2 Pro Forma earnings
With BTC at $109,500, $MSTR has ~ $15B single quarter gain
Estimated EPS of Q2 ~ $54 per share (7.7 P/E ratio)
This would qualify $MSTR for S&P 500 for the first time, leading to Billions of dollars in passive inflows

If Bitcoin keeps trading near its highs, MicroStrategy is set to report a massive Q2 earnings bump, which would be around $54 per share, with a price-to-earnings ratio of just 7.7. That kind of performance could finally push MSTR into the S&P 500, opening the door to billions in passive investment flows. And it wouldn’t just be a win for shareholders, it would also be a major validation of MicroStrategy’s bold, high-stakes Bitcoin strategy. It could be the spark that draws even more institutional players into the space.
