CryptoQuant: Strategy may be forced to sell Bitcoin in the future to deal with tax bills
Odaily News CryptoQuant posted on the X platform that according to the documents submitted by Strategy (MSTR) to the US SEC, as of June 30, 2025, the company held 597,000 bitcoins, purchased at a cost of $42.4 billion, and currently valued at $64.4 billion. However, the new accounting rule ASU 2023-08 requires companies to report Bitcoin assets at fair value, even if they are not actually sold, which may trigger a 15% corporate minimum tax rate (CAMT) from 2026. Strategy made it clear in the document that the company may need to liquidate some of its Bitcoin holdings or issue additional debt or equity securities to raise enough cash to meet its tax obligations. This means that tax pressure may force Strategy to sell some of its Bitcoin holdings in the future to cope with the actual tax bills generated by unrealized gains.
