Strategy's ($MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said on the company's fourth-quarter 2025 earnings call that Strategy will initiate a Bitcoin Security Program. The effort is meant to coordinate with the global cyber, crypto, and Bitcoin security community. In the call, Saylor framed quantum computing as a long-term engineering challenge rather than an immediate danger. He said the technology is likely more than a decade away from posing a serious risk to Bitcoin's cryptography.

Shares of MicroStrategy ( NASDAQ:MSTR) are trading 20% below their 200-day moving average of $332.74, coinciding with a sharp deterioration in retail investor sentiment. Reddit discussions have turned decidedly bearish, with sentiment scores falling to 28 out of 100 in early December. The shift comes as Bitcoin dropped 16.6% from its mid-November peak of $104,050 to current levels around $86,774, putting pressure on MicroStrategy's $56 billion cryptocurrency holdings.

Strategy - the original "bitcoin-on-NASDAQ" proxy - is now facing its most consequential structural risk since Michael Saylor began converting the firm into a leveraged BTC holding vehicle five years ago. A new JPMorgan research note warns that Strategy is "at risk of exclusion from major equity indices" as MSCI approaches a key January 15 decision on whether companies with large digital-asset treasuries belong in traditional stock benchmarks.

Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), the world's largest corporate holder of bitcoin, expanded its treasury once again last week, purchasing 168 BTC for $18.8 million at an average price of $112,051 per coin, according to a new U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing. Following the purchase, Strategy now holds 640,418 BTC, acquired at a total cost of roughly $47.40 billion, reflecting an average purchase price of $74,010 per bitcoin.

Bitcoin treasury companies have become one of the most important demand drivers in this cycle. Collectively, 86 publicly traded firms now hold more than 1 million BTC on their balance sheets. What began with MSTR (Strategy) in 2020 has since spread across the corporate landscape, with new entrants joining seemingly every week. But a closer look at their purchase history reveals a surprising insight that many of these companies could be holding considerably more Bitcoin today if they had followed a simple, rules-based strategy for accumulation.
