The acquisition is part of Strategy's ongoing strategy of accumulating Bitcoin as a strategic asset. The company has consistently funneled capital from equity raises into digital asset purchases, positioning itself as a bellwether for institutional adoption of cryptocurrency. Strategy's treasurer, Shirish Jajodia, has noted that these purchases are done through over-the-counter (OTC) deals to minimize market impact [1].
Despite the volatility in Bitcoin's price, Strategy remains bullish on the cryptocurrency. The company's co-founder and executive chairman, Michael Saylor, has reiterated his stance that "Bitcoin is still on sale," reflecting the company's long-term investment philosophy [2]. The company's aggressive acquisition strategy has drawn scrutiny from some investors due to potential dilution concerns, but Saylor maintains that the capital structure can endure a 90% drop in Bitcoin's price over four to five years [2].
Strategy's Bitcoin holdings now represent over 3% of the total Bitcoin supply, indicating substantial paper gains given Bitcoin's current market value [2]. The company has been transparent about its capital allocation, with the latest purchases financed by at-the-market (ATM) sales of its various shares [2].
The corporate Bitcoin accumulation race is intensifying, with 163 public companies now holding Bitcoin in some capacity [2]. Strategy remains the largest corporate holder, followed by companies like MARA and Riot Platforms, which hold 50,639 BTC and 15,000 BTC respectively [2].
