\nBernstein Predicts Bitcoin Bottomed: $150K Target as Strategy (MSTR) Holds $53.5B in BTC<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Wall Street broker Bernstein says bitcoin has likely hit its bottom, reaffirming a $150,000 year-end price target as strong ETF flows and growing corporate treasury demand support a rebound.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Analysts led by Gautam Chhugani highlighted that Strategy (MSTR), a high-beta proxy for bitcoin, remains resilient, now holding roughly 3.6% of total bitcoin supply, valued at around $53.5 billion, according<\/a> to StreetInsider.<\/p>\n

The firm has continued adding<\/a> to its holdings at recent lows, raising $7.3 billion in 2026 to expand its position.<\/p>\n

Bernstein also noted rising interest in Strategy\u2019s preferred shares, STRC<\/a>, whose structure helps limit dilution while providing steady long-term capital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite bitcoin\u2019s sharp pullback from late-2025 highs, the broker characterized the correction as a temporary reset in sentiment rather than a breakdown in fundamentals, with institutional flows and ETF demand pointing to further upside.<\/p>\n

Strategy\u2019s multi-billion dollar raise to buy bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Strategy has moved to significantly expand its capacity to raise capital through at-the-market (ATM) offerings, a step that could further support its aggressive Bitcoin treasury strategy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company disclosed<\/a> on March 23 that it has added Moelis & Company, A.G.P.\/Alliance Global Partners, and StoneX Financial as new sales agents under its existing Omnibus Sales Agreement, joining a syndicate that already included major Wall Street firms such as Barclays, Morgan Stanley, TD Securities, and Cantor Fitzgerald.<\/p>\n

These additions give Strategy the ability to execute additional ATM programs for its Class A common stock and preferred shares, allowing the company to sell up to $21 billion of new common stock, $21 billion of STRC preferred shares, and $2.1 billion of STRK preferred shares.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These new programs supplement existing authorizations, while the prior STRK ATM program was terminated and replaced by the new $2.1 billion offering.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin surged near $71,000<\/a> on Monday at the start of the week after the U.S. President Donald Trump announced a brief pause on planned strikes against Iran, only to retrace as Tehran denied talks had occurred, highlighting market sensitivity to geopolitical uncertainty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s Foreign Ministry, via state media, denied that any talks had occurred in the form Trump described. Bitcoin still held strong.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite all the volatility, BTC has risen roughly 7% since late February, outperforming traditional assets, while technicals suggest consolidation with potential moves toward $85,000\u2013$90,000 if $75,000 is breached.<\/p>\n
