Strategy, the Tyson’s Corner, Virginia-based digital-asset treasury firm led by Michael Saylor, has added $26 million worth of Bitcoin to its portfolio. The company purchased 245 BTC between June 16 and June 22, 2025, at an average price of $105,856 per token, according to a recent SEC filing.

This acquisition marks Strategy’s fourth consecutive week of Bitcoin purchases, signaling its unwavering commitment to cryptocurrency as a core treasury asset. While the 245 BTC purchase is the second-smallest weekly buy since the firm intensified its Bitcoin strategy over six months ago, it underscores a disciplined approach to capital allocation.

The latest Bitcoin acquisition was funded through proceeds from the sale of Strategy’s Strike preferred stock (STRK) and Strife preferred stock (STRF). This move highlights the company’s strategic use of diversified financial instruments to bolster its cryptocurrency reserves.

Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings now stand at 592,345 BTC, valued at approximately $60 billion, cementing its position as a leading institutional Bitcoin investor. The firm, formerly known as MicroStrategy Inc., has seen its stock surge over 3,000% since it began aggressively acquiring Bitcoin in mid-2020.

In comparison, Bitcoin’s price has risen by roughly 1,000% over the same period, showcasing Strategy’s outsized returns driven by its bold cryptocurrency strategy. On June 22, 2025, Strategy’s stock price remained stable at around $368.35, reflecting investor confidence in its long-term vision.

Michael Saylor, Strategy’s co-founder and executive chairman, continues to champion Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and a transformative asset for corporate treasuries. The company’s consistent Bitcoin purchases, even in smaller increments, reinforce its role as a trailblazer in the institutional adoption of digital assets.
