MicroStrategy saw its stock rise 15% on Monday, following Bitcoin's surge to $65,000 with double-digit gains.
MicroStrategy’s Strong Performance MicroStrategy (MSTR) has consistently outperformed Bitcoin, with a 22% jump in the last week versus Bitcoin’s 13%. Since January, MSTR has soared 135%, compared to Bitcoin’s 44% gain. Over the past year, MSTR has increased by 258%.
This growth is tied to MicroStrategy’s substantial Bitcoin reserves. The company announced a 10:1 stock split to make shares more accessible. Since integrating Bitcoin into its reserves, MSTR has outpaced major tech stocks like Nvidia.

The crypto market’s recovery, alongside Wall Street’s rally, has also boosted other crypto stocks like Coinbase (COIN) and Marathon Digital (MARA).
Inspired by MicroStrategy’s success, other companies are adding Bitcoin to their balance sheets to boost stock performance. Japan’s Metaplanet has acquired 225 Bitcoins in two months, leading to a 500% rise in its share price.
Coinbase has taken a major step toward expanding its decentralized finance (DeFi) presence by bringing onboard the leadership team behind Opyn Markets, a prominent name in the DeFi derivatives space.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a massive influx of over $1 billion in a single day on Thursday, fueled by Bitcoin’s surge to a new all-time high above $118,000.
Grayscale Investments has called on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to allow the launch of its multi-crypto ETF—the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund—arguing that further delays violate statutory deadlines and harm investors.
As Bitcoin breaks above $118,000, fresh macro and on-chain data suggest the rally may still be in its early innings.
