Bitcoin's rise above $75,000 has erased all unrealized losses on Strategy's Bitcoin holdings.

Crypto-focused media outlet BlockBeats reported on Aug. 21 that Bitcoin had broken decisively above $75,000 and was trading near $75,500.

That pushed Strategy's holdings above the company's average Bitcoin purchase price of $75,385.

As Bitcoin previously declined, Strategy's unrealized loss on its Bitcoin holdings had at one point exceeded $10 billion.
