Bitcoin2026-10-03 11:01:50Strive executive says Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings could reach $161.8 billion if BTC-gold ratio returns to peakAdam Livingston, vice president of investments at Strive, said Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings could be worth about $161.8 billion under a scenario tied to both gold and the BTC-gold ratio. He said that if gold rises 15% to $4,760 per ounce and the BTC-gold ratio climbs from roughly 20.4 ounces to its historical high of about 40.1 ounces seen in December 2024, Bitcoin would be priced at around $190,858. Based on that estimate, Strategy’s current holdings of 847,666 BTC would carry a market value of about $161.8 billion. Livingston also cited Strategy’s cumulative acquisition cost at about $63.95 billion and its average purchase price at about $75,437 per BTC. On that basis, the company’s paper gain would be about $98 billion. The report was cited by Bitcoin.com News and carried by Odaily.20
Bitcoin2026-08-03 07:40:32Adam Livingston says Coldcard attack is being overread by parts of the Bitcoin communityBitcoin content creator Adam Livingston weighed in on the Coldcard attack incident, arguing that some members of the community are reading far too much into it. In a post on X, he said two common interpretations do not hold up: the idea that the incident points to a deeper government operation, and the claim that it marks the end of self-custody. Livingston said governments are not going away. Instead, he argued, economic reality will eventually push them to adopt Bitcoin. He also said Bitcoin’s long-term success does not depend on every user becoming an anarchist, nor on hardware wallets never having problems. His comments frame the incident as a case of exaggerated reaction inside the community rather than proof of a broader political plot or a fatal flaw in self-custody.1700
