As of September 22, 2025, bitcoin is priced at roughly $112,811, reflecting a pullback from August’s record highs above $125,000. According to CoinDesk’s live tracker, daily volumes remain in the tens of billions, with bitcoin’s market capitalization above $2 trillion. These figures illustrate BTC’s volatility but also its enduring dominance.

Corporate bitcoin ownership is concentrated among a handful of public firms. According to CoinGecko’s Bitcoin Treasuries dashboard, 120 entities hold about 1.51 million BTC or 7.2% of supply, with Strategy maintaining the largest holdings among listed companies. Other holders include Marathon, Tesla, Coinbase, and Riot; however, none approach Strategy's scale.

Saylor is the Executive Chairman and co-founder of Strategy, having served as CEO from 1989 until 2022 before shifting focus to bitcoin advocacy. According to Strategy’s investor-relations page, he now leads the company’s BTC acquisition strategy and is a prominent voice framing bitcoin as "digital property" for corporations. His career also includes founding roles in technology ventures and authorship.

Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, was founded in 1989 as a business intelligence software firm before transitioning into a bitcoin-first enterprise. According to Investopedia, it continues to sell analytics products while financing large-scale bitcoin purchases through equity offerings and convertible notes. Its 2025 rebrand to Strategy cemented its mission as the largest corporate bitcoin holder.
