Strategy completed its 101st bitcoin purchase, acquiring 3,015 BTC for $204.1 million and lifting its total holdings to 720,737 BTC.
The company paid an average of $67,700 per bitcoin in the latest transaction, below its overall average acquisition price of $75,985, bringing its total cost basis to about $54.8 billion.
The purchase marks one of a limited number of occasions where Strategy has bought below its average cost basis, following similar moves during previous market downturns.
Earlier instances included a February purchase of 1,142 BTC and a series of acquisitions in 2022 and 2023 when bitcoin traded below roughly $30,600, during which the company bought 28,560 BTC across seven transactions.
Strategy shares rose from about $125 to nearly $130 over the past week, while bitcoin fluctuated between $64,000 and $69,000 before trading around $65,834 at the time of reporting.
The announcement followed chairman Michael Saylor’s disclosure that the company would raise the dividend on its STRC preferred stock to 11.50% for March 2026 from 11.25%, potentially supporting further bitcoin purchases.
