Indeed, Strategy now holds 761,068 BTC, valued at approximately $56.2 billion. In comparison, BlackRock holds 782,170 BTC worth $57.79 billion, leaving a difference of just 21,102 BTC.

In a Form 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Strategy revealed a 22,337 BTC purchase between March 9 and March 15, worth roughly $1.57 billion. The transaction marks Strategy’s largest Bitcoin buy since January, when it invested about $2.1 billion in the asset. Institutional crypto ETF demand drives recovery More aggressive institutional demand also supports Bitcoin’s recent rebound. Over the past week, Bitcoin has climbed 6.8% to $74,200, outperforming both gold and major equity indices despite ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. This growing appetite also creates more buying pressure, as persistent net inflows directly reduce available sell-side liquidity. At the same time, allocations to Bitcoin continue to expand across not just ETFs but also corporate treasuries and low-activity wallets, signaling a broader structural shift toward long-term accumulation.
