News and analysis of Strategy's (formerly MicroStrategy) new $2B "Stretch" Preferred Stock (STRC) used to fund its corporate Bitcoin treasury in 2025.
  • Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) now holds 607,770 BTC, just shy of the 620K mark.
  • Polymarket gives a 58% chance of hitting 620K BTC by August, up 21% in one day.
  • The firm’s $2B “Stretch” Preferred Stock offers a 9% yield, backed indirectly by BTC.

The odds are climbing that Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) will hit the 620,000 BTC milestone in its holdings before August. According to the prediction market Polymarket, the probability has surged to 58%, a 21% jump in the last 24 hours alone.

The firm currently holds 607,770 BTC, acquired at an average price of $71,756. This puts Strategy within striking distance of the target as Bitcoin itself trades near $119,000, just shy of its all-time high of $123,000.
