Between April 21 and April 27, the company raised approximately $1.4 billion by selling 4.02 million shares of its Class A common stock (MSTR) and 435,069 shares of its 8.00% Series A preferred stock ($STRK).

The latest acquisition brings Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to 553,555 $BTC, valued at roughly $52.7 billion at current market prices. As of press time, Bitcoin is trading near $95,300, according to TradingView data.
Bitcoin’s surge to $95,300 has turbocharged Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings, turning its $37.9 billion investment, acquired at an average price of $68,459 per coin, into approximately $15 billion in unrealized gains.
This marks the third consecutive week Strategy has added to its Bitcoin reserves. Just last week, the company reported purchasing 6,556 $BTC during the week ending April 20.
The announcement follows a post from Michael Saylor on Sunday highlighting Strategy’s Bitcoin portfolio tracker, often interpreted by the market as a precursor to a major acquisition update.
Shares of Strategy (MSTR) are up 1.6% in pre-market trading Monday, following a 5% gain last Friday, according to Yahoo Finance.
