Strategy Goes Big: $75M Bitcoin Buy Fuels Corporate Dominance

As part of its continuing strategy to gather the bitcoin, Strategy (once MicroStrategy) has lately purchased 705 BTC for around $75.1 million at an average price of $106,495 per bitcoin. Common stock was not used to pay for this buy; rather, perpetual preferred shares were sold to enable the corporation to broaden its capital sources without dilution of equity. This most recent purchase makes Strategy the biggest corporate bitcoin holder in the world with 580,955 BTC, or around 2.8% of the entire 21 million BTC supply.

Approaching bitcoin as a main treasury reserve asset meant to hedge against inflation and currency depreciation, the corporation intends to outperform conventional cash or bonds. This hostile accumulation is seen to reflect institutional demand for bitcoin, therefore implying that big corporate acquisitions might affect the price of the currency and cause supply shocks in the market.

Furthermore, Strategy has set an ambitious "42/42" plan to raise $84 billion in equity and convertible notes for bitcoin acquisitions by 2027, an increase from its original $42 billion target. With roughly $19.3 billion in paper gains on its bitcoin holdings, the company is already seeing tremendous returns that strengthens its dedication to bitcoin as a treasury asset and its leadership in corporate bitcoin adoption.
