Semler Scientific plans to become the second largest holder of Bitcoin by 2027.

Semler Scientific has just announced a bold investment strategy: to accumulate 105,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2027. At the same time, the company has appointed Joe Burnett – a leading analyst in the field of Bitcoin – as the Bitcoin Strategy Director to realize its long term growth objectives.

Currently listed on NASDAQ, Semler's stock has decreased by nearly 40% in 2025. However, news about the plan to expand the Bitcoin portfolio has helped the stock price recover slightly during the day.

Semler started buying Bitcoin over a year ago and has become one of the notable organizations holding BTC. Earlier this year, the company raised 500 million USD through a stock issuance to increase its Bitcoin holdings.

Recently, the company set an ambitious goal: to own 105,000 BTC – equivalent to about 11 billion USD at current prices. However, analysts predict that the price of Bitcoin will fluctuate significantly in the coming years.

For example, Pantera Capital predicts that BTC could reach $750,000 by April 2028. If the plan is implemented, Semler will become one of the largest organizations holding Bitcoin in the world.

Chairman Eric Semler shared: "We are very pleased to welcome Joe Burnett to the team to lead the company's Bitcoin strategy. With sharp analytical thinking and deep understanding of the cryptocurrency market, Joe will play a key role in realizing the vision and creating sustainable value for shareholders."

Although the plan has been announced, Semler has not yet disclosed the specific start date for new purchase deals. Currently, the company holds 3,808 BTC and aims to reach 10,000 BTC by the end of the year. This means they will need to buy an additional approximately 95,000 BTC over the next two years — a remarkably notable effort in the context of a competitive and volatile market.
