Michael Saylor’s Strategy (MSTR) has further increased its exposure to digital assets, acquiring 13,927 bitcoin over the past week. The company disclosed in a Monday filing that the acquisition cost approximately $1 billion, with an average purchase price of $71,902 per coin. This latest move was funded entirely by the issuance of $1 billion in preferred stock under the ticker STRC. The strategy underscores the firm's commitment to treating bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset, utilizing equity markets to leverage its balance sheet. With this addition, MSTR now holds a total of 780,897 BTC. The aggregate investment stands at roughly $59.02 billion, resulting in an average cost basis of $75,577 per bitcoin. Despite the aggressive accumulation, MSTR shares fell more than 2.5% in pre-market trading. This decline coincides with a broader retreat in the cryptocurrency market, as bitcoin prices dipped below $71,000. Market participants are currently reacting to rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, which have triggered a spike in crude oil and pushed traders toward defensive positioning.
