Strategy said Monday that it now holds $4.65 billion in cash.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strategy\u2019s stock (Nasdaq: MSTR) was trading nearly 3% lower on Monday. The stock has taken a hit since the price of Bitcoin nosedived last year. Investors buy MSTR to get amplified exposure to the biggest digital asset.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But now, as Bitcoin is nearly 50% below its October record, MSTR is down nearly 80% from the all-time high it notched last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the sale, Strategy has maintained that its long-term posture toward Bitcoin hasn\u2019t changed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strategy \u2014 formerly MicroStrategy \u2014 began buying Bitcoin in August 2020 as a treasury strategy to boost shareholder returns during the pandemic.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It has since spent more than $63.5 billion buying Bitcoin and remains by far the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strategy\u2019s approach spawned a wave of copycat companies that have since adopted similar crypto-treasury strategies of their own.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company maintains that its long-term posture toward Bitcoin is still the same. CEO Phong Le he isn\u2019t worried about the current bear market, and that the company plans to remain a long-term buyer of Bitcoin despite its recent sales.<\/p>\n<p>This post <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/strategy-sells-more-bitcoin-for-cash-pile\">Strategy Sells Bitcoin Again For Cash Buffer, STRC Buyback<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/\">Bitcoin Magazine<\/a> and is written by <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/authors\/mathewdisalvo\">Mathew Di Salvo<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin Magazine Strategy Sells Bitcoin Again For Cash Buffer, STRC Buyback Bitcoin treasury company Strategy on Monday announced that it again sold Bitcoin last week, and used the cash to buy back its preferred stock.\u00a0 In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Nasdaq-listed company said it sold\u00a0 1,690 coins for $108.6 million, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":211439,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-211438","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-discovery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211438"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=211438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211438\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/211439"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=211438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=211438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=211438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
