MicroStrategy Expands Bitcoin Holdings by 1.2% With $555.8M Purchase

Michael Saylor’s Strategy, a prominent corporate Bitcoin holder, has recently expanded its Bitcoin holdings by acquiring 6,556 BTC for $555.8 million. This purchase was made between April 14 and April 20, with an average price of $84,785 per coin. The acquisition was disclosed in Strategy’s latest Form 8-K filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

The latest purchase represents 1.2% of Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings, which now stand at 538,200 BTC. The total amount spent on these holdings is $36.5 billion, with an average purchase price of $67,766 per BTC. The funds for this acquisition were generated from the sale of 1,755,000 Strategy shares for $547.7 million and 91,213 shares of Series A preferred stock for $7.8 million.

This recent purchase marks a resumption of Strategy’s Bitcoin buying spree after a brief pause. The firm had previously acquired 3,459 BTC on April 14, which was its first purchase since March 31. Notably, there was a period between March 31 and April 6 when Strategy did not report any Bitcoin purchases, which was unusual given the firm’s consistent buying pattern. This pause coincided with a drop in Bitcoin’s price below $87,000.

In 2025, Strategy has acquired a total of 91,800 BTC, which accounts for 17% of its total Bitcoin holdings. This aggressive buying strategy underscores Strategy’s commitment to Bitcoin as a long-term investment and its belief in the cryptocurrency’s potential for growth and stability.
