Catenaa, Tuesday, April15, 2025- Bitcoin treasury firm Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, acquired 3,459 additional bitcoin for approximately $285.8 million in cash, raising its total holdings to 531,644 BTC, the company disclosed Monday.
The purchase, made between April 7 and April 13 at an average price of $82,618 per bitcoin, was funded through proceeds from the sale of 959,712 shares of its class A common stock, MSTR, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
Strategy’s cumulative bitcoin investment now totals approximately $35.9 billion, with an average acquisition price of $67,556 per BTC. The holding represents more than 2.5% of bitcoin’s maximum 21 million supply.
Despite posting $5.91 billion in unrealized losses for Q1 following bitcoin’s worst quarterly performance since 2018, Strategy continues its aggressive acquisition strategy. The company purchased 80,715 BTC in Q1 alone for $7.66 billion.
Co-founder and Executive Chairman Michael Saylor hinted at the acquisition Sunday, posting “No tariffs on orange dots” on social platform X, referencing bitcoin’s visual nickname and possibly US trade policy developments.
As of April 13, $2.08 billion in MSTR shares remain authorized for sale under Strategy’s equity issuance program, with an additional $20.97 billion in perpetual preferred STRK shares available.
MSTR stock closed Friday up 10.2% at $299.98 and gained 15.3% for the week, rebounding from 2025 year-to-date losses. Analysts at Bernstein predict Strategy’s bitcoin holdings could exceed 1 million BTC by 2033, citing low leverage and strong balance sheet management.
