Semler Scientific Position Among Corporate Bitcoin Holders

As of early June 2025, Semler Scientific holds approximately 4,449 Bitcoins, which are valued at around $462 million. The company is among the top 15 corporate holders of Bitcoin, though it is still behind larger players in the industry.

The decision by the company to stack more Bitcoin comes as part of a larger trend wherein more companies are using Bitcoin as a store of value in the long term.

The move towards Bitcoin by Semler Scientific fits into a bigger pattern with more publicly traded firms being willing to use Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset. Today, there are almost 230 companies around the world who have integrated Bitcoin into some aspect of their treasury strategy. Semler’s move places it in a competitive position to benefit from the growing demand for Bitcoin and its increasing role in global finance.

Financial Moves to Support Bitcoin Acquisition

Semler Scientific will use a mix of equity financing and debt financing to finance its Bitcoin purchases, as well as use its existing cash flow. This plan will help optimize the result of acquiring Bitcoin with minimal risk.

This strategy is further championed by a previous announcement made by the company in April 2025, when it announced a $500 million securities offering to finance the purchase and hold Bitcoin.

Semler Scientific seeks to expand its Bitcoin portfolio through the use of various financial instruments to achieve this swiftly. The strategy of the company to invest in Bitcoin primarily as a store of value is consistent with its long-term belief in the potential of Bitcoin to become a superior form of money.
