Key Takeaways

• Strategy bought 1,142 BTC for $90m (avg $78,815), taking holdings to 714,644 BTC.
• The purchase was funded mainly through MSTR stock sales, and the firm says it still has $37.6bn capacity left under its ATM programmes.
• Strategy reported a $12.4bn Q4 2025 net loss driven largely by mark-to-market moves, and MSTR continues to track bitcoin closely.

US-listed software firm, Strategy (Nasdaq: MSTR), has added to its bitcoin reserves again, extending the accumulation playbook that has turned the business intelligence firm into the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin.

The company said it bought 1,142 BTC over the past week (February 2 to February 8), spending $90 million at an average price of $78,815 per coin. That takes Strategy’s total holdings to 714,644 BTC, a position valued at roughly $49 billion based on recent bitcoin prices.

Funded Through MSTR Stock Sales

Funding for the purchase came primarily from equity issuance. Strategy said it raised $89.5 million in net proceeds through the sale of MSTR common stock, using the proceeds to fund the latest bitcoin allocation.

Michael Saylor, the firm’s founder and executive chairman, has led the company’s pivot toward treating bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. Across the full stack of holdings, Strategy’s average cost basis now stands at $76,056 per bitcoin.

For Strategy, Volatility is the Trade-Off

The latest buy follows another purchase earlier this month, when Strategy acquired 855 BTC for $75 million. The company also said it has around $37.6 billion of remaining capacity across its common and preferred stock ATM programmes, leaving room for further buys.

But the approach has come with turbulence. Strategy reported a $12.4 billion net loss in Q4 2025, largely tied to mark-to-market swings, and the stock remains highly sensitive to bitcoin’s direction.
