Semler Scientific’s $50M Bitcoin Haul: The Corporate Crypto Revolution Accelerates!
Semler Scientific snaps up 455 BTC for $50M, boosting its treasury to 4,264 BTC worth $474.4M. Inspired by MicroStrategy, is this healthcare firm’s bold move sparking a corporate Bitcoin frenzy? Dive into the future of finance!
On May 23, 2025, Semler Scientific (NASDAQ: SMLR), a medical device company, acquired 455 Bitcoins for $50 million at an average price of $109,801 per BTC, bringing its total holdings to 4,264 BTC, valued at $474.4 million, per CoinDesk. Funded through a $114.8 million stock offering, this marks Semler’s third-largest Bitcoin purchase since adopting it as its primary treasury asset in May 2024. The company’s Bitcoin Yield, a key metric, hit 25.8% in 2025, outpacing giants like MicroStrategy.
Semler’s strategy, inspired by MicroStrategy’s pioneering Bitcoin treasury model, reflects a growing trend—104 public companies now hold 787,000 BTC, per Bitcointreasuries.net. Bitcoin’s surge past $111,000, driven by ETF inflows and pro-crypto U.S. policies, fuels corporate interest. For beginners, this signals Bitcoin’s shift from speculative asset to corporate hedge against inflation, but risks remain. Semler’s stock fell 18% in 2025 amid a $64.7M Q1 loss, and a DOJ investigation looms, per Decrypt. New investors should diversify and monitor regulatory shifts to navigate this bold trend safely.
