Bitcoin has signaled the onset of a euphoric rally catalyzed by rising demand from institutional investors.
Semler Scientific, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMLR) released its first quarter 2025 financial results on Tuesday, May 13, 2025. During the first three months of 2025, which ended on March 31, Semler Scientific reported a BTC Yield of 21.9 percent, thus a 22.2 percent YTD BTC Yield.
As of March 31, 2025, Semler Scientific held about 3,192 Bitcoins, after purchasing 894 BTCs for an aggregate value of about $90.7 million during the quarter. Meanwhile, the company has accumulated 616 Bitcoins since the end of Q1, 2025, through May 12, thus achieving a total holding of 3,808 BTC.
“We continue to actively grow our bitcoin arsenal using operating cash flow and proceeds from debt and equity financings,” Eric Semler, chairman of Semler Scientific, noted. “And we are excited to launch the Semler Scientific dashboard today on our website to provide the public with regularly updated information on our bitcoin holdings and other key metrics.“
Ultimate Impact on Bitcoin Price
Bitcoin price has approached its all-time high in the past few days amid the quelling of the trade war after the recent U.S. vs China deal. On-chain data shows the rising demand for Bitcoin from institutional investors has decreased the overall BTC supply on centralized exchanges to a multi-year low of about 2.4 million.
As a result, BTC price is well positioned to follow a similar fractal pattern to the 2017 and 2021 crypto bull cycles. According to crypto analyst Gert van Lagen, Bitcoin price will likely rally towards $320k in this cycle, unless the flagship coin falls below $79k.
