Strategy Smash Buys $21.5M in Bitcoin as It Continues BTC Accumulation<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Bitcoin juggernaut Strategy<\/a> has bought more BTC as it pivots back to accumulating on a weekly basis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Nasdaq-listed bitcoin treasury spent $21.5 million on 250 bitcoins from October 5 and October 11, according<\/a> to a Monday filing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It added that it also spent $192.4 million repurchasing its STRC<\/a> preferred stock.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Strategy has acquired 250 $BTC<\/a> and repurchased $192M of $STRC<\/a>. As of 10\/11\/26, we hold 848,250 BTC and $5.5B of USD Assets. $MSTR<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/hhxR6N95mq<\/a><\/p>\n

Strategy now holds 848,250 bitcoins worth $70.2 billion at today\u2019s prices. Its stock (MSTR) on Monday was trading nearly 2% higher.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company \u2014 formerly MicroStrategy \u2014 has spent the past four weeks buying bitcoins after months of more sporadic buys or sometimes halting purchases for months altogether in order to build a bigger cash buffer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Monday\u2019s filing also shows that the company bought last week\u2019s bitcoin using net proceeds from MSTR Stock sales with its USD Cash buffer. Strategy has two cash reserves: \u201cUSD Reserve\u201d, used to support the payment of dividends on the company\u2019s preferred stock offerings and interest on its outstanding indebtedness, and \u201cUSD Cash\u201d, which it uses to buy bitcoin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It first bought the cryptocurrency in 2020 to protect its shareholders from inflation. Since then, it has aggressively bought the asset and pivoted to being a bitcoin treasury.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Investors can now buy its shares to get heightened exposure to the cryptocurrency, or get paid a yield via its digital credit products.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company is now focusing<\/a> on products that pay investors yield via its STRF, STRC, STRK, and STRD preferred shares.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Its Nasdaq-listed stock is down over 50% over the past year after the price of bitcoin took a hit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But since the company started buying bitcoin in August 2020, MSTR has appreciated by nearly 1,000%.\u00a0<\/p>\n
