By Vicky Ge Huang

Strategy, the bitcoin accumulation firm founded by Michael Saylor, recorded a $17.44 billion unrealized loss in the fourth quarter after a sharp decline in the value of its bitcoin stash.

The loss was partly driven by a fair value accounting standard adopted by Strategy last year. Under this rule, companies holding digital assets are required to show the fair value of their cryptocurrencies on their balance sheets at the end of each quarter. The company also recorded a $5.01 billion associated deferred tax benefit in the quarter.

Shares of Strategy plunged 48% in 2025, mirroring a gloomy year for bitcoin. The largest cryptocurrency itself fell more than 6% last year, its worst annual performance since 2022.

Still, both Strategy and bitcoin are off to a strong start in 2026. Bitcoin climbed near $94,000 as of Monday morning, while Strategy gained about 4%. The company said it snapped up about $116 million worth of bitcoin in the seven days ended Jan. 4.
