  • Strategy has purchased another 4,225 BTC for approximately $472.5 million at an average price of $111,827 per bitcoin — taking its total holdings to 601,550 BTC.

  • The latest acquisitions were funded by proceeds from the sale of its Class A common stock, MSTR, perpetual Strike preferred stock, STRK, perpetual Strife preferred stock, STRF, and perpetual Stride preferred stock, STRD.

Bitcoin treasury company Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) acquired an additional 4,225 Bitcoin for approximately $472.5 million at an average price of $111,827 per bitcoin between July 7 and July 13, according to an8-K filingwith the Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday.

Strategy now holds a total of 601,550 BTC — worth over $73 billion — bought at an average price of $71,268 per bitcoin for a total cost of around $42.9 billion, including fees and expenses, according to the company's co-founder and executive chairman, Michael Saylor. That's the equivalent of more than 2.8% of bitcoin's total 21 million supply and implies around $30 billion of paper gains.

The latest acquisitions were made using proceeds from ATM sales of its Class A common stock, MSTR, perpetual Strike preferred stock, STRK, perpetual Strife preferred stock, STRF, and perpetual Stride preferred stock, STRD. Last week, Strategy sold 797,008 MSTR shares for approximately $330.9 million. As of July 13, $17.78 billion worth of MSTR shares remain available for issuance and sale under that program, the firm said. Strategy also sold 573,976 STRK shares for approximately $71.1 million, with $20.45 billion worth of STRK shares remaining available for issuance and sale under that program. It sold 444,005 STRF shares for $55.3 million, with $1.88 billion remaining, and sold 158,278 STRD shares for $15 million, with $4.19 billion remaining.

STRD offers a fixed 10% non-cumulative annual dividend and is non-convertible, STRK is a convertible preferred stock offering a fixed non-cumulative 8% annual dividend, and STRF is non-convertible and offers a 10% fixed cumulative annual dividend. Essentially, STRF offers the most conservative investment option among the preferreds with cumulative dividends, STRK balances risk with conversion upside, and STRD carries the highest risk but offers the most accretion potential for MSTR shareholders.

Strategy's STRK and STRF perpetual preferred stock's respective $21 billion and $2.1 billion ATM programs are in addition to the firm's "42/42" plan, which targets a total capital raise of $84 billion in equity offerings and convertible notes for bitcoin acquisitions through 2027 — upsized from its initial $42 billion, "21/21" plan after the equity side was depleted. Last week, Strategy also announced a $4.2 billion ATM offering for STRD.
