U.S.-based business intelligence firm Strategy has recorded an estimated $1.3 billion Bitcoin gain in just the first two weeks of April. The surge reflects not only aggressive accumulation but also improving market conditions that are beginning to favor long-term Bitcoin holders.

According to a tweet by Michael Saylor, Strategy has achieved a BTC gain of 17,585 BTC, worth approximately $1.3 billion. He described BTC Gain as “the closest economic analog to Net Income.

Strategy’s BTC Holdings Cross 780K

In early April, Strategy resumed its Bitcoin accumulation, purchasing thousands of BTC across multiple transactions. The firm acquired 4,871 BTC between April 1 and April 5. It also purchased another 13,927 BTC between April 6 and April 12, using roughly $1 billion raised through preferred stock issuance.

As a result, the company now holds over 780,000 BTC, reinforcing its position as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin. This accumulation coincided with a modest recovery in Bitcoin prices, which recently climbed above $70,000 after months of volatility.

At press time, the apex cryptocurrency trades at $74,096, representing a 0.9% decline in the last 24 hours. Due to the price appreciation, Strategy recorded a sharp increase in the value of its holdings.

Meanwhile, the company measures performance using “BTC Gain,” a metric that tracks the growth of its Bitcoin stack rather than traditional net income. It represents the total increase in bitcoin, with its dollar value calculated using the current bitcoin price.

Market Conditions Support Aggressive Accumulation

The broader crypto market showed signs of recovery in early April. Investor sentiment improved as macroeconomic pressure eased and institutional demand returned. These conditions supported Bitcoin’s rebound and helped boost portfolio values across large holders.

Strategy also continued to raise capital to fund additional Bitcoin purchases. It uses equity and preferred stock issuance to support its accumulation plan. This approach allows the company to buy more Bitcoin even during volatile periods.

However, the firm remains exposed to price swings. Bitcoin can move sharply in both directions, which affects the value of holdings. Still, Strategy maintains a long-term view and treats volatility as part of its investment approach.
