Strategy revealed on Monday that it procured an additional 24,869 bitcoin for roughly $2.01 billion, an average cost of approximately $80,985 per coin. This acquisition elevates the firm’s total holdings to 843,738 BTC, solidifying its position as the world’s predominant corporate bitcoin treasury by a considerable margin.
The announcement was made through a Form 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, continuing the company’s pattern of Monday morning acquisition disclosures. This purchase signifies a notable acceleration compared to Strategy’s last reported acquisition — 535 BTC for $43 million during the week of May 5–11 — which had prompted some investors to question if the firm was moderating its aggressive accumulation strategy.
With this most recent investment, Strategy has now amassed a total of 843,738 BTC for an approximate total expenditure of $63.87 billion, yielding an average acquisition price of about $75,700 per bitcoin. Furthermore, the company has achieved a Year-to-Date (YTD) BTC Yield of 12.6% for 2026. This proprietary metric quantifies bitcoin accumulation on a per-diluted-share basis and serves as Strategy’s key indicator for evaluating the value enhancement derived from its capital markets endeavors for shareholders.
This acquisition occurs amidst heightened investor scrutiny regarding Strategy’s funding structure. The company has substantially utilized its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock — traded under the ticker STRC — along with its MSTR at-the-market equity offering program to finance its acquisitions. STRC, which provides an approximate annual dividend of 11.5%, has evolved into a multi-billion dollar preferred equity instrument and has become a crucial component of Strategy’s bitcoin acquisition mechanism.
Strategy maintained its bitcoin reserves
Saylor had previously indicated that a significant announcement was imminent, updating Strategy’s bitcoin acquisition tracker on Sunday and hinting at “big dot energy,” a reference to the substantial new data point that would soon be added to the company’s widely recognized chart of cumulative BTC purchases.
The latest procurement comes weeks after executive chairman Michael Saylor and CEO Phong Le conceded during the company’s Q1 2026 earnings call that Strategy might, under specific conditions, divest a portion of its bitcoin holdings to cover STRC dividends or manage tax liabilities. This marked the first instance where leadership indicated a potential for sales.
Saylor later addressed these concerns, clarifying that the company would acquire between 10 and 20 bitcoin for every single bitcoin it might sell.
At the current market price of bitcoin, hovering around $80,000, Strategy’s treasury of 843,738 coins boasts a market valuation exceeding $67 billion, representing one of the most concentrated single-asset corporate balance sheets in the annals of financial history.
On Friday, Strategy also took steps to retire $1.5 billion in face value of its zero-coupon 2029 convertible notes for approximately $1.38 billion. This move effectively repurchased the debt at roughly 92 cents on the dollar, demonstrating a readiness to leverage its balance sheet more assertively. This includes the potential to finance such transactions through bitcoin sales, notwithstanding Saylor’s recent emphasis on the company remaining a “net accumulator” of the asset.
