    Strategy (MSTR) Increases Bitcoin Holdings with 1,587 BTC Acquisition

    Published on:

    Michael Saylor’s Strategy has purchased an additional 1,587 bitcoins for $100 million. This recent acquisition was made at an average price of $63,024 per bitcoin. According to a filing released on Monday morning, Strategy (MSTR) increased its total bitcoin holdings to 846,842 BTC after the purchase. Additionally, the company revealed it has raised its USD Reserve by $100 million to $1.1 billion through the sale of common stock. The acquisition occurred between June 8 and June 14, coinciding with Strategy raising $209 million by selling approximately 1.73 million MSTR shares as part of its at-the-market program. The reserve consists of funds allocated by Strategy in December 2025 to cover dividends on its preferred shares and interest on its debts. By accumulating bitcoin while simultaneously increasing its reserves, the company indicates it is financing both its bitcoin purchases and its financial obligations through equity sales rather than liquidating its bitcoin or cash reserves. This latest buy elevates Strategy’s total holdings to 846,842 BTC, which is valued at roughly $56 billion at current market rates and was acquired at an average cost of $75,656 per bitcoin, totaling around $64 billion. The company continues to be the largest corporate bitcoin holder, owning about 4% of the total supply that will ever be available. On June 1, Strategy reported selling 32 bitcoin to cover preferred dividends. The company’s shares have seen a 5% increase in pre-market trading as bitcoin prices surpass $66,000. In May, the total exchange volumes decreased by 3.45% to $4.41 trillion, marking the lowest level since September 2024, while RWA perpetual futures volumes increased by 10.4%, reaching a new all-time high.
