According to Michael Saylor, over 13,000 institutions hold Strategy stock directly in their portfolios.Bitcoin investors continue to watch the company and its effect on Bitcoin market dynamics. Strategy leads the charge toward institutional adoption of Bitcoin, further restricting the supply of available coins and raising BTC prices, while dampening volatility.Related: Bitcoin yet to hit $150K because outsiders are ghosting — Michael SaylorStrategy and corporate institutions change the Bitcoin market dynamicAdam Livingston, author of “The Bitcoin Age and The Great Harvest.” recently said that Strategy is synthetically halving Bitcoin by outpacing miner supply through high demand.According to the author, the current collective daily miner output is approximately 450 BTC, while Strategy accumulates an average of 2,087 BTC per day — over 4 times the daily miner production.Miner reserves are dwindling and are in a long-term decline.
