Price Action

BTC has dropped in recent days, and many people are panicking. It is our view at Bitcoin Magazine Pro that this panic is overblown. Many metrics still point to the fact that we are in the middle stages of a bull market. 

These types of pullbacks are very typical to wipe out any excess leverage among derivatives traders before the price moves back up higher.

We also note that BTC price has simply pulled back to the previous high and has retested it. This provides a good area of support for now.

The near-term task for BTC now is to climb back ABOVE the recent range at $120,000 and achieve daily closes above it. That will bring significant confidence back to the market.

Confidence has waned somewhat on this recent pullback because over the past month, BTC is now up just +5.69%. Despite this still being a good return, in BTC bull markets, many participants often expect / hope for a lot more.

The Big Story: Strategy earned a cool $10B in Q2 because of Bitcoin

Surprising even the most bullish observers, the leading Bitcoin-treasury firm Strategy posted roughly $10 billion in net income on just $114 million of revenue, translating to $32.60 in earnings per share in Q2 2025.

The windfall flowed almost entirely from Strategy’s 628,791 BTC hoard, now measured under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s new fair-value crypto rules that took effect this year. Those guidelines let companies run unrealised gains and losses through the income statement, turning Bitcoin’s roller-coaster into an income-statement swing factor overnight.

With Bitcoin averaging about $73k during the quarter and sprinting to $118k by late July, Strategy’s pile, roughly 3% of the total global supply, ballooned to an estimated $72 billion. 

They hold a profit on all the BTC they have acquired of +$25B.

At Bitcoin Magazine Pro we are able to track in real-time the KPI’s that internal management at Strategy monitor. Satoshis per share in Q2 leapt up to 227,379 per share. This is also a key metric that shareholders want to track so that they can understand if they are getting more bitcoin per share over time.

To keep buying coins while cushioning volatility, the company is pioneering a series of Bitcoin-backed capital-market instruments. The headline act, STRC, a perpetual preferred stock paying a 9% coupon, pulled in $2.5 billion on launch and could add another $4.2 billion in coming months.

Executive chairman Michael Saylor touts the product as a corporate-finance analogue to the iPhone: simple, high-yield, and hard-to-copy.

This will likely continue to have a bullish impact on $MSTR stock price, which is currently up +2,866% since the company adopted a bitcoin strategy.

This gain towers over even the likes of Nividia during that same time period, and certainly over the big tech names like Meta, Google and Apple.
