On April 15, Strategy bought 3,459 BTC for about $285.8 million, in line with plans announced earlier this year to raise more capital for BTC purchases.

According to data from  BitcoinTreasuries.net , Strategy currently owns over 2% of the global circulating BTC supply.

Strategy’s stock ( MSTR ) is up 1.9% today, bucking the stock market downtrend, trading for $323 at time of writing.

According to Saylor, a large number of institutions own shares of Strategy stock.

“Based on public data as of Q1 2025, over 13,000 institutions and 814,000 retail accounts hold MSTR directly. An estimated 55 million beneficiaries have indirect exposure through ETFs, mutual funds, pensions, and insurance portfolios.”

In early February, the firm announced a  massive  stock offering to raise funds for accumulating more Bitcoin.

Just last month, Saylor said Strategy  sold  $21 billion in preferred STRK stock to snatch up more coins.
