In the coming five years, it is projected that a growing number of publicly traded companies may start acquiring significant amounts of Bitcoin, with over $300 billion potentially entering the cryptocurrency market by 2030.

This insight comes from analysts at a financial firm that tracks corporate interest in Bitcoin, predicting that many more firms will adopt similar strategies to retain Bitcoin as a key part of their financial portfolios.
Setting the Standard
MicroStrategy, now known as Strategy, has already attracted attention with its substantial Bitcoin investments. The company currently holds 555,450 BTC, which has cost around $38 billion, averaging about $68,550 per coin. Recently, it added another 1,895 BTC for $180 million.
Analysts suggest that corporate treasury investments in Bitcoin could surge to $330 billion by 2029, with Strategy potentially accounting for $124 billion of that total, highlighting the increasing institutional appetite for Bitcoin within treasury allocations.
As momentum builds behind this strategy, the report indicates that companies experiencing slow growth and holding excess capital may view Bitcoin as an attractive investment alternative.
From 2025 to 2030, publicly listed companies alone could funnel approximately $205 billion into Bitcoin. In addition, another $124 billion could come from firms adopting Strategy’s systematic investment approach to cryptocurrency.
Treasury Influence on Demand
According to analysts, even minimal shifts in corporate treasury allocations could trigger significant impact. If just 20% of relevant firms redirected 25% of their treasury balances to Bitcoin, it could result in a $190 billion influx, particularly for companies facing low growth and limited investment options.
Currently, public companies hold around 720,898 BTC, valued at nearly $68 billion, marking a notable rise from the 1.3% of the total Bitcoin supply held in late 2023 to 3.4% today. Private firms also have substantial holdings, with about 398,323 BTC valued at over $37 billion.

Growing Interest Amid Limited Supply
The increase in corporate Bitcoin ownership coincides with changing regulations and accounting practices, which may be easing entry barriers for companies exploring Bitcoin investments. Additionally, with the shrinking number of available coins and enhanced access to capital, businesses could become a major driver of both demand and price movements.
Analysts highlight Strategy’s role in this transformation, noting that the company has developed systems and strategies allowing for continued Bitcoin purchases, even in volatile market conditions. While not every company may replicate this, the framework is available for those willing to explore it.
