BlockBeats News, July 10th, CryptoQuant stated in a post that, according to documents submitted to the U.S. SEC by MicroStrategy (MSTR), as of June 30, 2025, the company holds 597,000 bitcoins, purchased for $42.4 billion, with a current value of $64.4 billion.
However, under the new accounting standard ASU 2023-08, companies are required to report their bitcoin assets at fair value, even if not actually sold, which could trigger a 15% Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (CAMT) starting in 2026.
Strategy explicitly stated in the document that the company "may need to liquidate a portion of its bitcoin holdings or issue additional debt or equity securities to raise enough cash to meet its tax obligations." This means that tax pressure may force Strategy to sell some of its bitcoin holdings in the future to address the actual tax bill generated by unrealized gains.
