Strategy Raises Bitcoin Holdings With 520 BTC Buy, USD Reserve Hits $1.4B
Michael Saylor's Strategy expanded its Bitcoin position and bolstered its USD Reserve to $1.4 billion through fresh equity sales.

The question is no longer whether Strategy will keep buying Bitcoin, but how long capital markets will continue to fund that ambition on favorable terms. Continue reading at Cointelegraph.
