Publicly traded health tech firm Semler Scientific has deepened its commitment to Bitcoin in the first quarter of 2025, reporting a significant increase in its BTC reserves and revealing a strong year-to-date return on its crypto holdings.
In its Q1 financial update, the Nasdaq-listed company disclosed a Bitcoin yield of 21.9% for the quarter, bringing its total year-to-date performance to 22.2%. As of March 31, Semler held 3,192 BTC. The company had added 894 coins to its treasury during the quarter, spending approximately $90.7 million. By May 12, its Bitcoin balance had grown to 3,808 BTC, reflecting continued accumulation into the second quarter.
Chairman Eric Semler confirmed that the firm is leveraging both operational income and capital raised through financing to expand its crypto portfolio. “We remain committed to building our Bitcoin position,” Semler said, announcing a new public-facing dashboard on the company’s website that will provide real-time updates on its BTC holdings and key metrics.
This aggressive accumulation comes amid a notable tightening of Bitcoin supply across centralized exchanges, driven largely by increasing institutional interest. According to on-chain metrics, the available BTC on trading platforms has dropped to a multi-year low of 2.4 million — a level not seen since prior bull cycles.
The constrained supply, paired with easing geopolitical tensions following a U.S.-China trade agreement, has lifted investor sentiment and positioned Bitcoin near its previous all-time high. Analysts suggest the current trajectory mirrors patterns seen in 2017 and 2021, with market watchers like Gert van Lagen predicting a possible surge toward $320,000—provided Bitcoin holds above key support around $79,000.
Semler Scientific joins a growing list of publicly listed companies making Bitcoin a core asset strategy—further reinforcing the narrative of digital gold adoption as global economic uncertainty persists.
