Bitcoin powerhouse Strategy has once again expanded its already vast BTC reserve, announcing the purchase of 7,390 BTC worth approximately $764.9 million. The acquisition was executed at an average price of $103,498 per coin, slightly above the asset’s current market level.

With this latest purchase, Strategy now holds a staggering 576,230 BTC, acquired at a total cost of around $40.18 billion. This brings the firm’s average cost basis to $69,726 per bitcoin. The portfolio’s market value, at BTC’s current price, exceeds $59.5 billion, a YTD return of 16.3% in 2025.

Relentless Accumulation: Strategy Maintains Weekly Bitcoin Purchase Trend

The company, which rebranded from MicroStrategy, has maintained a relentless Bitcoin acquisition approach. Last week, it disclosed a $1.34 billion purchase of 13,390 BTC at an average price of $99,856. Today’s announcement further maintains the weekly acquisition trend by Strategy.

Since pivoting to a weekly BTC acquisition model in late 2024, Strategy has consistently increased its position. Its most aggressive purchase came in November 2024, when it secured 55,500 BTC worth $5.4 billion, still its single largest acquisition to date.

In total, Strategy has now spent over $40.18 billion acquiring Bitcoin across nearly five years. The firm’s holdings currently represent over 2.9% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply, reinforcing its position as the world’s largest corporate holder of BTC.

ATM Equity Program Funds Strategy’s Bitcoin Buying Spree

The company continues to utilize its robust $42 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity program to fund these acquisitions. The program includes selling its common stock (MSTR) and preferred stock (STRK) offerings, allowing Strategy to raise capital to sustain its Bitcoin acquisition goal.

Chairman Michael Saylor remains the face of the firm’s ultra-bullish Bitcoin strategy. He emphasizes a long-term vision that sees BTC as a superior monetary asset and has repeatedly stated that he has no intention of selling even if Bitcoin reaches $1 million per coin.

Michael Saylor’s No-Sell Stance vs. Market Criticisms from Peter Schiff

Despite the firm’s strong gains in 2025, critics continue to voice concern over Strategy’s aggressive stance. Skeptics like Peter Schiff warned that continued acquisitions at elevated price levels could eventually push the firm’s cost base above $70,000. Schiff argues that any major market correction could expose the company to substantial financial risk.

Nonetheless, Strategy’s bold approach has thus far paid off. With Bitcoin trading above $102,000, and Strategy sitting on an unrealized profit of more than $19 billion, the company’s BTC treasury remains one of the most profitable corporate investments in modern financial history.
