On The Verge: Strategy’s Recent Purchase Positions Total Bitcoin Holdings Near 600,000

Strategy, the Bitcoin (BTC) proxy firm formerly known as MicroStrategy and founded by Bitcoin bull Michael Saylor, has announced a significant new acquisition of the market’s leading cryptocurrency on Monday. 

Strategy Capitalizes On Significant New BTC Acquisition

In a recent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company revealed it purchased an additional 4,020 BTC for $427.1 million, translating to an average price of $106,237 per token.

This acquisition comes on the heels of Bitcoin reaching a new record high close to $112,000 last week, driven by renewed inflows into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and favorable regulatory developments under President Trump’s administration. 

Saylor shared the news on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), noting that the latest purchase brings Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to approximately 580,250 BTC, acquired for a total investment of $40.6 billion, at an average price of $69,979 per token.

As Strategy continues its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy, the company is also planning to raise additional capital to further enhance its holdings. 

$7.7 Billion Gain From Bitcoin Investments

As reported by NewsBTC last Friday, Strategy announced the launch of a $2.1 billion At-The-Market (ATM) equity program for its preferred stock, Strife (STRF), deemed as a crucial step toward the firm’s long-term goal of establishing a strong Bitcoin-backed financial infrastructure.

During an investor update, CEO Phong Lee, alongside Executive Chairman Saylor, highlighted the impressive year-to-date performance of the firm’s Bitcoin-linked securities, Strike (STRK) and Strife, as key factors driving this expansion. 

Lee emphasized, “We’re currently at a 16.3% BTC yield for the year, against a 25% target,” indicating the firm’s ambitious goals. So far, Strategy has achieved a dollar gain of $7.7 billion from its Bitcoin investments and aims to reach a target of $15 billion.

The company had previously issued $212 million through Strike’s ATM program without encountering adverse pricing pressure. Given the high trading volume and strong investor demand, Lee expressed optimism that the $2.1 billion Strife ATM could be executed with similar success.

In contrast to its other offerings, Strike is designed for “Bitcoin-curious” investors, featuring an 8% coupon and potential upside through Bitcoin conversion. Saylor described it as a “Bitcoin fellowship with a stipend,” appealing to a different risk profile.

Currently, Strategy operates three ATM programs: $21 billion each for MicroStrategy (MSTR) equity and Strike, and $2.1 billion for Strife. These programs are rebalanced daily, allowing the company to adjust its issuance based on market conditions, volatility, and investor appetite. 

Strategy

At the time of writing, BTC is attempting to consolidate above the key $109,370 mark, which has the potential to become a new support level and allow for new records to be reached in the coming weeks. Year-to-date, the cryptocurrency has gained 56%.
