Holdings are nearing Satoshi Nakamoto? Analysts: MicroStrategy could become the world’s largest Bitcoin holder in as fast as 9 months

MicroStrategy’s astonishing rate of adding to its holdings is gradually closing in on the historical record for the largest personal Bitcoin holding. Crypto market analysis firm Arch Public estimates that the 815,061 bitcoins MicroStrategy currently holds have already reached 74% of the 1.1 million total inventory that Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto is estimated to have.

Based on the current market price, it would require roughly another $22 billion in capital. Through fundraising channels such as STRC and issuance at market prices (ATM), it is deploying capital in the market at a pace of about $2 billion per week. If this expansion tempo remains unchanged, it is expected that MicroStrategy will officially surpass Satoshi Nakamoto’s holding size within the next 9 to 14 months.
