How Much Has MicroStrategy Gained Since Adopting the Bitcoin Standard?
Strategy (MicroStrategy, $MSTR), the business intelligence firm led by Michael Saylor, has seen explosive growth in its stock price since adopting Bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset.
According to a chart shared by Saylor himself, $MSTR has surged an astonishing 3,142% since the company began implementing the Bitcoin Standard.
Crushing Traditional Tech Giants
This performance dwarfs even the biggest names in tech and finance. Here’s how $MSTR stacks up against other major assets and companies over the same time frame:
- NVIDIA (NVDA): +916%
- Bitcoin (BTC): +715%
- Tesla (TSLA): +205%
- Meta (META): +121%
- Google (GOOG): +118%
- Microsoft (MSFT): +107%
- Apple (AAPL): +89%
Even major index ETFs like QQQ (+80%) and SPY (+68%) significantly trail MicroStrategy’s gains, highlighting the dramatic impact of its Bitcoin accumulation strategy.
The Bitcoin Bet That Paid Off
Saylor’s aggressive strategy of using MicroStrategy’s balance sheet to acquire and hold Bitcoin — even issuing debt to do so — has made $MSTR not just a tech firm, but effectively a Bitcoin holding vehicle. As Bitcoin surged over recent years, $MSTR stock rose in tandem, often outpacing the cryptocurrency itself in percentage gains.
This success story is increasingly cited by Bitcoin advocates as a case study in corporate adoption of crypto — one that may encourage other firms to explore similar treasury strategies.
