BTC Bought Per Day
BTC Bought Per Day tells you the average number of bitcoins the company has added to its treasury each day since they first began acquiring BTC.
Formula: BTC Bought Per Day = Total BTC in Treasury ÷ Days Since First Purchase This metric smooths out the company’s acquisition history into a daily average, regardless of whether purchases were steady and frequent or made in a handful of large transactions.
Example Calculation Suppose Company X: Holds 1,000 BTC in their treasury Made their first BTC purchase 500 days ago BTC Bought Per Day = 1,000 ÷ 500 = 2 BTC per day
This means, on average, the company has been adding 2 BTC to its holdings each day since starting its BTC treasury strategy.
Why Does This Metric Matter?
-
Growth Pace and Strategy Provides a clear signal of how aggressively the company is growing its BTC holdings. A high BTC Bought Per Day suggests a rapid, possibly high-conviction or high-risk approach. A low figure may indicate gradual accumulation, conservatism, or less frequent purchasing.
-
Comparing Companies Investors can easily rank and compare companies by their average BTC acquisition speed, even if their treasury histories began at different times. This standardization helps separate “active accumulators” from “passive holders.”
-
Risk and Market Timing Regular, steady acquisition (reflected in a smooth per-day figure) can help reduce price timing risks and volatility. Spiky per-day numbers may indicate opportunistic or lump-sum buying—potentially exposing shareholders to more market risk.
