Bitcoin Holdings Reach 850,364 BTC
According to the filing, the company paid a cumulative $64.16 billion for its Bitcoin position, with an average acquisition cost of $75,456 per coin across all holdings. The latest purchase further increases the company’s exposure to Bitcoin, which remains the centerpiece of its treasury strategy.
The firm now controls approximately 4.05% of Bitcoin’s maximum supply of 21 million coins, highlighting the scale of its long-term commitment to the asset. The newly acquired Bitcoin was purchased at a higher average price than the company’s overall cost basis, reflecting continued accumulation despite elevated market valuations.
Share Buybacks Continue Alongside Bitcoin Purchases
Since the start of October, the company has spent roughly $1.06 billion repurchasing STRC preferred shares. That figure is nearly five times greater than the $219.7 million allocated to Bitcoin purchases during the same period. Strategy raised $283.8 million in net proceeds last week through the sale of about 2.05 million shares of its common stock under its at-the-market offering program.
The firm used $188.3 million of those proceeds to repurchase approximately 1.89 million STRC shares. The company had already spent $208.2 million on buybacks the previous week. In addition, it allocated $81.9 million to Bitcoin purchases and directed another $13.6 million toward its USD cash balance.
Cash Position Shifts as Market Watches Performance
The latest Bitcoin purchase follows Strategy’s acquisition of 811 BTC for $65.5 million during the previous week, showing that the company has maintained a consistent pace of accumulation. Strategy’s separate US dollar reserve declined to $4.77 billion from $4.79 billion after a $21.1 million withdrawal used to pay dividends on preferred stock. Meanwhile, its USD cash balance increased roughly 10% to $146.2 million from $132.7 million. In Monday premarket trading, the company’s common stock fell 3% to $125, while STRC preferred shares slipped 0.06% to $99.7.
