Michael Saylor’s Strategy disclosed the purchase of 855 Bitcoin worth $75.3 million, taking advantage of a short-lived price decline that pushed Bitcoin below $75,000. The acquisition was made at an average price of roughly $88,000 per coin, according to regulatory filings, lifting the firm’s total holdings to more than 713,000 BTC.

The purchase was notable as Bitcoin briefly traded below Strategy’s average acquisition cost for the first time since late 2023. Historically, similar periods have led the company to moderate its buying pace, particularly during the 2022 downturn when prolonged price weakness constrained accumulation.

The latest move underscores Strategy’s continued commitment to Bitcoin as a treasury asset, even amid heightened market volatility. It also highlights the growing role of corporate buyers in shaping Bitcoin demand, as institutional strategies increasingly influence market dynamics during periods of price stress.
