[kim]

Key points:
Strategy raised approximately $1.58 billion through equity sales, including 11.8 million preferred shares and additional common stock.
Strategy now holds 761,068 BTC, with the latest purchase over three times its recent four-week average of 6,000 BTC.
Strategy’s buying push came as chairman Michael Saylor said Bitcoin could act as “digital capital” and a hedge against AI-driven disruption.
Strategy Inc. (MSTR) has purchased 22,337 Bitcoin for about $1.57 billion last week, marking one of its largest acquisitions ever.

According to a Form 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Strategy raised roughly $1.57 billion through equity sales, including 11.8 million STRC preferred shares and additional common stock, to fund the acquisition.

Strategy said it bought the coins at an average price of $70,194 per BTC, bringing its total Bitcoin holdings to 761,068 BTC. The purchase is about 3.7 times larger than the company’s recent four-week average buying pace of roughly 6,000 BTC, making it one of the largest weekly Bitcoin acquisitions in the firm’s history.

Even after the latest purchase, Strategy still trails BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which holds roughly 19,000 more BTC than the company.

Bitbo statistics showed that Strategy has around 761,068 BTC, which is about 3.6% of the total 21 million BTC that are available. The company's Bitcoin reserve is worth around $54 billion as per the cryptocurrency’s current price.

BlackRock's IBIT ETF now has about 780,162 BTC, which is a little more than Strategy's holdings and makes up about 3.7% of Bitcoin's maximum supply. The assets are valued at about $57.5 billion.

Saylor Says AI Could Push More Capital Toward Bitcoin

Strategy’s accumulation push also came as chairman Michael Saylor framed Bitcoin as a hedge against technological disruption. On Monday, Saylor argued that advances in artificial intelligence could erode traditional competitive advantages, shifting capital toward assets that are harder to disrupt. “Bitcoin is Digital Capital - scarce, neutral, and impervious to AI disruption,” he wrote, adding that the cryptocurrency could benefit as capital reallocates.https://x.com/saylor/status/2033521063389221104?s=20

According to its analysis of the company’s latest 8-K filing, Strategy acquired about 16,816 BTC last week, funded partly by selling 11.8 million shares that generated roughly $1.18 billion in proceeds, with purchases at an average price of about $70,200 per Bitcoin.
