Strategy again pours $2.5 billion into a frenzy to buy 34,000 Bitcoins, pushing total coin holdings past 800,000

According to the Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday, during the period from April 13 to 19, Bitcoin investment giant Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) invested approximately $2.54 billion to purchase 34,164 bitcoins at an average price of $74,395 per coin, marking the company’s largest additional purchase since November 2024.
Strategy co-founder and Executive Chairman Michael Saylor stated that the company currently holds a total of 815,061 bitcoins, valued at about $61.2 billion. Since initiating Bitcoin holdings in 2020, Strategy has invested a total of approximately $61.6 billion, with an average cost basis of $75,527 per bitcoin.

Following the latest round of additional purchases, Strategy’s unrealized paper loss (floating loss) is approximately $400 million, representing about 3.8% of the total supply of 21 million bitcoins.
The funds used by Strategy to buy Bitcoin mainly came from the sale of common stock MSTR and perpetual preferred stock Stretch (STRC). Just last week, Strategy sold about 2.17M shares of MSTR, raising $366 million; simultaneously, it also sold 21.79 million shares of STRC, generating $2.18 billion.
Currently, Strategy still has substantial financing capacity, with approximately $26.7 billion of MSTR and $19.46 billion of STRC remaining available for issuance.
The company’s four perpetual preferred stocks—STRK, STRC, STRF, and STRD—have issuance scales of $21 billion, $4.2 billion, $2.1 billion, and $4.2 billion respectively, all part of Strategy’s “42/42” fundraising plan, aiming to raise $84 billion by 2027 through stock issuance and convertible bonds to purchase Bitcoin.
In recent weeks, STRC has become the main engine for Strategy’s Bitcoin funding. STRC is a floating-rate, monthly dividend cumulative preferred stock, with a dynamically adjusted interest rate to ensure its price stays close to its $100 face value; currently, STRC offers an annualized yield of 11.5%, successfully attracting a large amount of institutional capital seeking stable returns. Just last week, STRC set an astonishing record with a single-day trading volume exceeding $1.1 billion.
To further boost STRC’s popularity, Strategy last Friday proposed a dividend restructuring plan to increase the dividend frequency from “monthly” to “twice a month.” The company stated that this change would not only help shorten the time for investors to receive and reinvest dividends but also improve market liquidity and pricing efficiency, further stabilizing the stock price.
