Strategy Expands Bitcoin Reserve with $1.42 Billion Purchase

Following another week-long hiatus, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) made a bold move by purchasing 15,355 bitcoins for $1.42 billion.

The average acquisition price for this tranche stood at $92,737.

Strategy’s overall Bitcoin portfolio has now expanded to 553,555 BTC (~$52.7 billion), accumulated at an average cost of $68,459 per coin, totaling roughly $37.9 billion.

Michael Saylor, the firm's founder and one of Bitcoin’s most vocal supporters, confirmed the purchase via his X account, noting his personal stash of 17,732 BTC valued above $1.6 billion.

Strategy remains committed to the aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy it initiated back in spring 2020, when it made headlines as the first public company to acquire BTC for corporate reserves.

Yet the path remains risky, with volatility in digital assets and potential regulatory shifts posing ongoing challenges.

Strategy’s ongoing Bitcoin acquisitions reflect its long-term faith in BTC as a store of value, despite market uncertainties.

This conviction has fortified its stock performance, with shares posting a staggering 2500% gain over five years.

Many analysts believe that by diversifying with Bitcoin, Strategy is mitigating risks associated with conventional financial assets — a critical move amid the current economic instability.

Earlier, Strategy’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) outlined the company's right to offload part of its Bitcoin assets if compelled by a court decision. Although the leadership firmly dismissed any plans to touch its Bitcoin reserve, legal analysts interpreted the move as a standard precaution aimed at shielding the company from regulatory risks.
