The growth in corporate bitcoin reserves signals rising institutional interest.
Major global companies are showing unprecedented interest in bitcoin, with a wave of acquisitions reaching record numbers in recent weeks.
According to data recently shared by André Dragosch, Head of Research for Bitwise Europe, companies have accelerated their bitcoin purchases, adding nearly 100,000 BTC to their reserves in just one month. This increase has pushed total corporate bitcoin holdings to 746,302 BTC — a level never seen before.
The roughly 100,000 BTC increase recorded this month alone surpasses the entire quarterly growth between Q4 2024 and Q1 2025.
The data shows that in April alone, companies acquired over 96,000 BTC, while an additional 13,600 BTC entered circulation through mining rewards. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) contributed significantly to this surge, adding 25,370 BTC, which accounts for around 26.3% of the monthly total.
At the end of Q1 2024, corporate bitcoin reserves stood at 279,639 BTC. In just over a year, these holdings have more than tripled. Dragosch stated that the latest figures suggest the corporate race for BTC is intensifying faster than many had anticipated.
