The central banks of Norway and Switzerland&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/sunnydecree/status/1823689429283729859">have disclosed</a> substantial holdings of MicroStrategy (MSTR) in their 13-F filings.&nbsp;
Norges Bank, which is responsible for managing the Government Pension Fund of Norway, holds 1.123 million MSTR shares. The Swiss National Bank holds 466,000 MSTR shares, which represents a 60% increase compared to the previous quarter.&nbsp;
The shares of the Virginia-based business intelligence firm, which is primarily known as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, are also owned by South Korea's public pension fund and Mitsui Suitomo, a major Japanese insurance company.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The shares of MicroStrategy are currently trading at $131.21 after declining 3.5% over the past 24 hours. The company's market cap currently stands at $25 billion.&nbsp;
MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor recently revealed that the company had outperformed virtually all stocks in the S&amp;P 500 index since adopting its audacious Bitcoin strategy. The company currently holds 226,500 Bitcoins. For comparison, Marathon Digital Holdings, the second-largest corporate owner of the leading cryptocurrency, holds "only" 20,818 BTC.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The stock now acts as a leveraged Bitcoin play with no fees. This sets it apart from various Bitcoin exchange-traded funds that were launched earlier this year. &nbsp;
During a recent CNBC appearance, Saylor stressed that his company would keep acquiring more Bitcoin via various means in order to increase shareholder value. &nbsp;
In&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/goldman-sachs-reveals-massive-bitcoin-etf-holdings">other news</a>, Goldman Sachs recently disclosed that it held roughly $419 million worth of Bitcoin ETF shares in its recent 13-F filing.&nbsp;
