Strategy adds 4,871 Bitcoin (BTC) worth roughly $330M to its treasury at an average price of $67,718 per coin, bringing its total holdings to 766,970 BTC — a position acquired for $58B that remains underwater despite a recent price rally toward $70,000.
Strategy's Bitcoin Purchase
The NASDAQ-listed firm, co-founded by Michael Saylor, ended a one-week buying pause by announcing the acquisition on Monday. The company paid approximately $329.9M for the batch at around $67,718 per unit.
Strategy now holds more Bitcoin than any other public company.
Its total stash of 766,970 BTC was purchased at an average cost of $75,644 per coin, putting total spending at roughly $58B.
At current prices near $70,000, that position is worth about $53.3B — still below the break-even point.
Saylor confirmed the purchase on social media. Strategy's primary stock ticker, MSTR, rose nearly 4% in pre-market trading Monday but has declined from roughly $160 to $124.54 since the start of 2026.

Saylor vs. Schiff Debate
The purchase came alongside another public exchange between Saylor and longtime Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff. The two sparred over BTC's five-year performance compared to gold, stocks and silver.
Schiff argued the cryptocurrency gained only 12% over that period. Saylor countered by pointing to a higher annualized return chart beginning in Aug. 2020, when Strategy first started buying Bitcoin.
