Starting at around $0.5 billion, the value rose to an impressive $3.3 billion by mid-June. The growth is split across three categories: STRK, STRF, and STRD, each represented by different colors. STRD, in green, saw the biggest jump recently, pushing the total value higher as the year progressed. This suggests strong demand for these Bitcoin-backed products.

Strategy products’ milestone suggests a maturing space. The company’s work could encourage more firms to enter this field, potentially increasing options for investors. In an X post, Saylor also highlighted the MSTR stock’s performance over the last year, with the stock outperforming other major tech stocks like Apple, Tesla, and Meta. MSTR has also outperformed Gold during this period.

Bitcoin Products Gain Traction Compared to Gold ETFs and Traditional Assets

While the rise is notable, the Bitcoin market still lags behind traditional investment options. For instance, GLD, the top gold exchange-traded fund (ETF), currently manages about $60 billion in assets.

This shows that Bitcoin-based structured products are still a small part of this sector compared to gold. However, their rapid growth indicates a shift where they are starting to challenge the dominance of older, established ones.

Strategy’s efforts are part of a broader trend where investors are exploring digital currencies as a reliable source of income. The company’s focus on building this market could signal a future where Bitcoin plays a bigger role alongside traditional commodities. The chart’s upward trend reflects growing confidence, even if the scale remains modest compared to giants like gold ETFs.

CoinMarketCap data shows that the Bitcoin price is trading around $107,000. The flagship crypto reached an intraday high of $108,300 but is now at risk of losing the psychological $107,000 level.
