Michael Saylor’s bitcoin treasury company, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), has added 196 BTC to its holdings, spending approximately $22.1 million at an average price of $113,048 per coin.
What This Means
-
With the latest purchase, Strategy’s total bitcoin holdings now stand at 640,031 BTC.
-
While the buy continues Strategy’s accumulation trend, $22.1 million is relatively modest compared to some of its earlier, much larger purchases.
-
The acquisition was disclosed in a recent SEC filing, reaffirming Strategy’s commitment to “stacking sats” even amid market volatility.
Broader Context & Risks
-
Strategy has long used equity offerings, debt issuance, and preferred stock instruments to fund its bitcoin purchases, raising questions about dilution of existing shareholders.
-
Some analysts caution that such buying strategies depend heavily on maintaining investor confidence and favorable market conditions—if either falters, the approach could be strained.
-
Meanwhile, critics point out that smaller recent buys may signal constraints or shifting priorities in Strategy’s capital deployment.
