Billionaire Michael Saylor, the executive chairman of Strategy, has once again bolstered his firm’s

holdings. On Monday, Strategy disclosed that it had acquired an additional 6,220 BTC for approximately $739.8 million, at an average price of $118,940 per bitcoin during the week ending July 20, 2025. This aggressive accumulation brings the company’s total bitcoin holdings to a staggering 607,770 BTC, purchased at an aggregate cost of $43.61 billion, or an average price of $71,756 per BTC.

The bitcoin purchase was financed through proceeds raised under Strategy’s at-the-market (ATM) equity programs, which span several security classes. Between July 14 and July 20, Strategy raised $740.3 million across four separate ATM programs. These programs include

Shares (Common Stock), Preferred Shares (8.00% Strike), STRF Preferred Shares (10.00% Strife), and STRD Preferred Shares (10.00% Stride). Each of these instruments falls under massive, multi-billion-dollar issuance programs, including a $21B authorization for both MSTR and STRK classes, demonstrating Saylor’s continued ability to convert equity into bitcoin reserves at scale.

As of July 20, the company holds over $43 billion worth of bitcoin, solidifying its position as the largest corporate holder of BTC globally. With bitcoin’s price well above Strategy’s average acquisition cost, the firm is enjoying a year-to-date BTC yield of 20.8% in 2025, reaffirming the effectiveness of its long-term crypto treasury strategy. Saylor remains vocal in his conviction that bitcoin is the world’s ultimate store of value. The latest acquisition shows his belief that corporate treasuries should hold bitcoin as a primary reserve asset. Strategy’s accumulating pace and financial engineering continue to make it a bellwether for institutional crypto adoption.
