Due to the rebound in Bitcoin prices and recent accounting changes, the Bitcoin reserve strategy pioneer MicroStrategy ( is expected to realize approximately $14 billion in unrealized gains in the second quarter, joining the ranks of corporate giants such as Amazon and JPMorgan.

In the first quarter of this year, Strategy adopted an accounting change that requires valuing the company's current approximately $64 billion in Bitcoin at market prices. Strategy and other companies that purchase Bitcoin are now aware that these unrealized gains and losses can lead to significant fluctuations in earnings. Strategy recorded a historic loss of $4.2 billion in the first quarter, as Bitcoin prices plummeted by 12%.

At the beginning of this season, the company held 528,185 Bitcoins, with each Bitcoin trading at approximately $82,444.71 on March 31, worth over $43.5 billion. According to Bloomberg's calculations, a 30% appreciation in Bitcoin increased the market value of these holdings by over $13 billion, and subsequent purchases brought in more than $600 million in unrealized gains.

Strategy is expected to announce its second quarter results in August.
