Strategy Raises $263.5 Million as Bitcoin Holdings Stay Flat

Strategy (MSTR) has long financed Bitcoin purchases through debt and preferred-share issuance, tying its stock price and balance sheet closely to the cryptocurrency. Selling Bitcoin to fund preferred-share dividends broke with market expectations that the company would only buy and never sell. The move has also renewed scrutiny of its liquidity management and Bitcoin-holding strategy.

Strategy recently sold 3,588 Bitcoin for about $216 million, its largest disposal on record, while Bitcoin remained near $63,000. The cryptocurrency’s decline also led the company to recognize more than $8.3 billion in unrealized losses in the second quarter of 2026. Grayscale recommended that Strategy sell $3 billion worth of Bitcoin to rebuild market confidence.

Strategy has long treated Bitcoin as a core asset and has raised funds to buy the cryptocurrency through stock issuances and sales, making it one of the world's most prominent corporate Bitcoin holders. Its holdings exceed 4% of Bitcoin's total supply, leaving its balance sheet and share price highly exposed to swings in the cryptocurrency's value.

Strategy spent $34.9 million from June 15 to June 21 to buy 520 Bitcoin at an average price of $67,068 each. The company now holds more than 847,000 Bitcoin. It has continued selling shares to raise funds for further purchases even as the position's unrealized loss has reached $9.3 billion.

Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy (Nasdaq: MSTR), has treated Bitcoin as a core asset since 2020 and has continued accumulating it by raising funds through stock issuance. It is the world’s largest publicly traded corporate holder of Bitcoin, and its transactions are widely viewed as key indicators of corporate adoption and market liquidity.

Strategy disclosed on June 8, 2026, that it spent $101 million to buy 1,550 Bitcoin between June 1 and June 7 at an average price of about $65,332 each, increasing its holdings to 845,256 Bitcoin. It had previously sold 32 Bitcoin between May 26 and May 31 to pay preferred-stock dividends but resumed accumulating immediately afterward.

Strategy uses its STRC perpetual preferred stock to raise capital, creating an ongoing funding channel for Bitcoin purchases. Its at-the-market program allows the company to issue additional shares depending on market conditions. STRC’s liquidity and market demand will directly affect Strategy’s ability to expand its Bitcoin holdings, as well as investors’ assessment of its financing ceiling and dilution risks.

The latest reports revised STRC’s Monday trading volume to $1.5 billion from an initial estimate of $1.16 billion and said it funded Strategy’s purchase of 11,707 Bitcoin, above the earlier estimate of 7,800. Trading volume could set another record on Tuesday, while Delphi Digital warned that the STRC financing model faces a $28 billion scale ceiling.

Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has long treated Bitcoin as a core asset, raising funds through stock issuance to finance continued purchases. The company has become a key gauge of corporate crypto adoption. Its vast holdings affect its financial performance and have also drawn market scrutiny of the risks arising from equity financing and Bitcoin price volatility.

Strategy spent about $43 million in early May to buy another 535 Bitcoin, increasing its total holdings to 818,869 and formally taking the figure above 810,000. At current market prices, the holdings carry an estimated unrealized gain of about $4.6 billion. The company plans to continue its long-term strategy of issuing stock and buying more Bitcoin.

Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has continued raising funds through equity and debt instruments to buy Bitcoin under Michael Saylor, making BTC a core asset. The company recently raised capital through STRC perpetual preferred stock carrying an 11.5% dividend rate. Saylor said an annual Bitcoin gain of more than 2% would be enough to cover the dividend, underscoring the company's highly leveraged capital strategy.

Strategy added 3,468 Bitcoin on April 10, according to the latest report, which did not disclose the dollar value or average purchase price of the transaction. The purchase brought the company's total Bitcoin holdings close to 770,000 BTC. As proceeds raised through STRC continue to be converted into Bitcoin, the company's holdings are moving toward a new milestone.

Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy (Nasdaq: MSTR), has continued to expand its Bitcoin holdings through equity issuance and debt since adding the cryptocurrency to its corporate treasury in 2020. At-the-market, or ATM, programs allow shares to be sold in tranches as market conditions permit. The new capacity could support further purchases but also brings common-stock dilution and preferred-share dividend obligations.

On March 23, 2026, Strategy filed for separate ATM programs covering $21 billion of MSTR common stock and $21 billion of STRC preferred stock, for a combined $42 billion. Including its STRK capacity, the total reaches $44.1 billion. The company also disclosed that it spent $76.6 million to buy 1,031 Bitcoin from March 16 to 22, increasing its holdings to 762,099 Bitcoin.

Strive (Nasdaq: ASST) is an asset-management and structured-finance company focused on increasing its Bitcoin holdings per share, while Strategy (Nasdaq: MSTR) is a major corporate holder of Bitcoin. The allocation shows corporate treasury strategies expanding beyond direct BTC purchases into dividend-generating preferred shares issued by industry peers.

Strive said on March 11, 2026, that it had purchased an additional 179 Bitcoin. It held 13,311 Bitcoin worth about $930 million as of March 9. The company also spent $50 million on 500,000 shares of Strategy’s STRC variable-rate perpetual preferred stock and raised SATA’s annual dividend rate by 25 basis points to 12.75%. A dividend of $1.0625 per share will be paid on April 15.

Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has treated Bitcoin as a core treasury asset since 2020 and has long financed purchases through sales of common and preferred stock. The strategy has made it the world’s largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, but its high-interest financing costs and exposure to cryptocurrency price swings remain under market scrutiny.

Strategy raised funds by selling Class A common stock and preferred stock from March 2 to March 8, 2026, then spent about $1.28 billion to buy 17,994 Bitcoin at an average price of $70,946 each. The transaction increased its total holdings to 738,731 Bitcoin, continuing its long-term Bitcoin treasury strategy.

Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, is the world’s largest publicly traded corporate holder of Bitcoin. It has long raised funds through stock and bond issuance to buy the cryptocurrency, which it treats as a core reserve asset. The size of its holdings can affect both the company’s financial risk and market confidence, making each purchase closely watched by investors.

Strategy raised funds through an at-the-market (ATM) stock offering in late February 2026 and spent about $204 million to buy 3,015 Bitcoin at an average price of roughly $67,700 each. This was the company’s 101st Bitcoin purchase. The transaction increased its total holdings to 720,737 Bitcoin, formally taking the figure above 720,000.
