Strategy Adds 1,587 Bitcoin for $100M, Total Holdings Near 847K BTC
Michael Saylor's Strategy continued its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation, purchasing 1,587 BTC for $100M after raising $209M via stock sales.
Michael Saylor's Strategy — the enterprise software firm that has transformed itself into one of the world's largest corporate Bitcoin holders — added another 1,587 BTC to its balance sheet last week at a cost of roughly $100 million, bringing total holdings to 846,842 Bitcoin. The purchase underscores just how methodically the company has pursued its now-signature treasury strategy, treating each capital-raise as fresh ammunition for accumulation rather than operational reinvestment.
The funding mechanism behind the latest buy is as notable as the purchase itself. Strategy raised approximately $209 million through sales of its MSTR common stock before deploying $100 million of that into Bitcoin.

The broader question for investors is whether this model — effectively issuing equity to buy a volatile asset — remains sustainable as Bitcoin matures and institutional competition for BTC intensifies. Strategy has pioneered the playbook, but the risk profile embedded in continuous stock dilution deserves scrutiny alongside the headline accumulation numbers. How the market prices MSTR relative to its underlying BTC net asset value will remain a key barometer of confidence in the approach.
