Michael Saylor Signals New Bitcoin Purchases Amid STRC Controversy

News Flash 2026-04-27 17:36

Michael Saylor, CEO of Strategy, has hinted at new Bitcoin acquisitions as the company's preferred equity instrument, STRC, faces scrutiny. Despite STRC trading below its $100 par value, Saturn, a yield provider, invested an additional $18 million, raising its total investment to $33 million. STRC offers an 11.5% annual return, with funds directed towards Bitcoin purchases. However, the stock's performance has raised questions about the sustainability of Strategy's aggressive Bitcoin acquisition strategy. Saylor's recent post on X, featuring Strategy's "Orange Dots" chart, is interpreted as a signal of impending Bitcoin purchases. Strategy, the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, recently added $2.54 billion worth of Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to over 815,000 BTC. Meanwhile, Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff has labeled STRC a "Ponzi scheme," arguing that the product's yield assumptions are flawed and warning of potential legal challenges. Strategy has not publicly addressed Schiff's claims, while Saylor continues to focus on Bitcoin accumulation.
