Semler’s Bold Bitcoin Strategy Continues
Semler Scientific, a U.S. healthcare technology firm, has significantly increased its Bitcoin holdings. Since February 14, Semler purchased an additional $11 million worth of Bitcoin (BTC). The company acquired 111 Bitcoins at an average price of approximately $90,000 each.
As a result, Semler’s total Bitcoin holdings now exceed 3,300 BTC, valued around $300 million. The firm confirmed that its Bitcoin acquisition strategy aims to enhance shareholder value through increasing BTC yield per share.
Corporate Bitcoin Accumulation Accelerates
Semler has seen a 23.5% return on its Bitcoin investments so far in 2025. The average purchase price of $89,000 contrasts favorably with Bitcoin’s current price of around $95,000 as of April 25.
The company raised part of its acquisition funds through a $125 million stock offering. Additionally, it announced plans to issue $75 million in convertible bonds to further strengthen its position.
Semler’s move mirrors the strategy employed by Michael Saylor’s company, now known as Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy). Strategy’s massive Bitcoin accumulation led its stock price to surge over 350%, setting a powerful precedent.
Institutional Interest in Bitcoin Reaches New Heights
Today, public companies collectively hold Bitcoin worth approximately $71 billion. Strategy alone controls over $50 billion in Bitcoin, making it the largest corporate holder.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETFs have surpassed corporate holdings, with a total value nearing $110 billion according to Coinglass. As more firms adopt Bitcoin-centric treasury strategies, Semler’s aggressive approach could mark the beginning of a broader trend across industries.
