According to BBX data, this week (as of May 12), Bitcoin corporate reserves continue to expand, and institutional-level ETF product monthly performance data has been released. The core dynamics are as follows:Strategy, Inc. (NASDAQ: $MSTR) submitted Form 8-K to the SEC on May 11, disclosing that the company purchased an additional 535 BTC, totaling approximately $43 million, with an average price of about $80,340; as of May 11, the total holdings increased to 818,869 BTC, with a total acquisition cost of approximately $61.86 billion (average price $75,540), and a BTC yield of 9.4% since the beginning of 2026.

The core dynamics are as follows:CME Group Inc.
