Strategy bought another 22,337 BTC
The largest corporate holder of Bitcoin ($BTC) has brought the total value of its assets to nearly $58 billion. Against this background, competitors from Japan are also accumulating hundreds of millions of dollars for new purchases.
Saylor’s portfolio
According to Strategy, the corporation purchased another 22,337 $BTC last week for approximately $1.574 billion. The average price in this deal was about $70,194 per coin.
As of March 15, 2026, the organization holds 761,068 $BTC. The entire volume of assets cost the company $57.61 billion at an average purchase price of $75,696 per unit.

A few days before the update of the accumulation data, Saylor described his concept of the “Digital Credit Theory,” which is based on three stages.
First, the company accumulates a large amount of capital in the first cryptocurrency that increases in value.
Then it issues credit instruments ($STRC) backed by this capital with excess collateral.
At the final stage, part of the profit from the growth of the coin’s price is monetized directly or through derivative financial instruments ($MSTR) to pay dividends.
Saylor explained that in this system investors exchange risks. Credit investors receive stability and cash flow, while shareholders take on volatility, in exchange for potentially higher returns.
Response from Japan
The Japanese public company Metaplanet is also preparing for a large-scale expansion of its reserves. On March 16, CEO Simon Gerovich announced that the company raised $255 million from international institutional investors through a new share issuance.
It is reported that the shares were sold at a 2% premium. In addition, the company issued warrants with a fixed exercise price, which could bring up to $276 million in additional capital.
“Metaplanet is using them to turn the current volatility of its shares into real money for new investments,” Gerovich explained.
He also added that the total amount of funds available for new operations will be about $531 million.
Metaplanet has not conducted transactions since September last year, but is now likely aiming for aggressive growth.
The company plans to increase its balance to 100,000 $BTC by the end of 2026 and to 210,000 $BTC by 2027. For comparison, at the time of publication it held 35,102 $BTC, according to BitcoinTreasuriesNet.
