Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, has expanded its Bitcoin portfolio by acquiring an additional 15,355 BTC for about $1.42 billion at an average price of $92,737 per Bitcoin.
This latest purchase, completed between April 21 and April 27, 2025, was funded through proceeds from the company’s recent common and preferred stock sales.
Following the acquisition, Strategy now holds 553,555 BTC, bought at a total cost of approximately $37.90 billion, averaging $68,459 per Bitcoin. At current market prices, the company’s Bitcoin holdings are valued at over $52 billion, making it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin globally.
To finance the purchase, Strategy raised $1.44 billion through the sale of over 4 million common shares and 435,069 Series A preferred shares (STRK).
Executive Chairman Michael Saylor continues to champion Bitcoin as a premier store of value, reflecting Strategy’s long-term belief in the asset’s growth potential.
Despite the scale of these acquisitions, analysts suggest their impact on Bitcoin’s price is limited given the broader market volume. Following the announcement, Strategy’s stock (MSTR) rose 5.3% to $368.71, underscoring investor confidence in its Bitcoin-driven strategy.
