Strategy has made another major Bitcoin purchase, adding 24,869 BTC for about $2.01 billion while Bitcoin trades below the average price paid in the latest deal.
Good to Know
Strategy bought the latest Bitcoin at an average price of $80,985 per coin. Bitcoin traded at $76,374 at the time of writing, down more than 2% over 24 hours and almost 7% across seven days.
That gap does not appear to have slowed Michael Saylor. Strategy, listed on Nasdaq under MSTR, remains the largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally and the first public company to adopt BTC as its only treasury reserve asset.
The new purchase ranks as the sixth-largest Strategy Bitcoin buy by BTC count and the eighth-largest by dollar value. Total holdings now stand at 843,738 BTC, acquired for $63.87 billion at an average cost of $75,700 per Bitcoin.
Saylor has framed Bitcoin less as a trade and more as a balance sheet system. In April, he wrote:
“Bitcoin has won. Global consensus is that BTC is digital capital. The four-year cycle is dead. Price is now driven by capital flows. Bank and digital credit will determine Bitcoin’s growth trajectory. The biggest risk is bad ideas driving iatrogenic protocol changes.”
Strategy also reported a BTC Yield of 12.6% year-to-date. The metric tracks how Bitcoin holdings grow against diluted shares, a key figure in the company approach to Bitcoin treasury management.
Yet the Saylor message now has a more practical edge. Strategy has floated a limited Bitcoin sale if needed to fund dividends. In a recent igaming.org article, Saylor was quoted as saying:
“Probably sell some Bitcoin to fund a dividend just to inoculate the market – just to send the message that we did it.”
That line sits beside another well-known Saylor rule repeated in the same igaming.org report: “Never Sell Your Bitcoin!”
For investors, the tension is clear but not complicated. Strategy keeps buying BTC, yet management also wants markets to believe Bitcoin reserves can support shareholder payments if needed. That would not mean a wider exit from Bitcoin, based on the company tone so far.
