BlackRock and Saylor Now Control 6.18% of All BTC
In a powerful display of institutional conviction, BlackRock and Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy now collectively hold 1,297,325 Bitcoin (BTC)—valued at a staggering $140.8 billion. This figure represents approximately 6.18% of Bitcoin’s fixed 21 million supply, underscoring the growing dominance of institutional players in the crypto space.
MicroStrategy, led by Bitcoin advocate Michael Saylor, has been steadily accumulating BTC since 2020. Meanwhile, BlackRock has entered the scene with its Bitcoin ETF (IBIT), which has quickly become one of the largest BTC-holding funds globally.
The Institutionalization of Bitcoin Is Here
This milestone signals a seismic shift: Bitcoin is no longer just a retail-driven asset. With traditional financial giants like BlackRock onboard, the narrative around Bitcoin as “digital gold” is being fully embraced on Wall Street.
MicroStrategy continues to treat Bitcoin as a strategic treasury reserve, while BlackRock provides exposure to BTC through regulated investment vehicles. Together, these two forces are playing a key role in tightening supply and potentially fueling upward price pressure.
What This Means for Bitcoin’s Future
With 6.18% of the total supply now held by just two entities, Bitcoin’s scarcity narrative becomes even stronger. As more institutions join the market, the available circulating supply shrinks—potentially amplifying future price appreciation.
This also raises new questions about centralization and control, but for now, one thing is clear: the age of institutional Bitcoin dominance has truly arrived.
