Michael Saylor’s Strategy, the world’s largest public Bitcoin holder, has blasted past 700,000 BTC in holdings following its latest large-scale purchase.
Strategy purchased 22,305 Bitcoin (BTC) or $2.13 billion last week, according to a US Securities and Exchange Commission filing on Monday.
The purchases were made at an average price of $95,284 per BTC, with Bitcoin briefly rising past $97,000 on Wednesday, according to CoinGecko data.
The acquisition brought Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to 709,715 BTC, purchased for about $53.92 billion at an average price of $75,979 per coin.
Strategy’s biggest Bitcoin buy since February 2025
Strategy’s latest Bitcoin acquisition marks a sharp acceleration in buying pace compared with most of 2025, and is the company’s largest purchase since February last year, when it bought 20,356 BTC for around $2 billion.
The company previously announced a 13,627 BTC ($1.3 billion) purchase on Jan. 12, which was its largest Bitcoin acquisition since July last year.
The purchase came amid a slight uptick in Strategy shares (MSTR), with the stock surging past $185 on Wednesday, coinciding with Bitcoin’s multi-month high of above $97,000, according to TradingView data.
The surge followed Morgan Stanley Capital International’s (MSCI) decision not to exclude digital treasury companies from its market index in early January.
