In a bold move to reinforce its cryptocurrency portfolio, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), led by Michael Saylor, has announced the acquisition of an additional 3,273 Bitcoin (BTC-USD) on April 27, 2026. This latest purchase underscores the company’s commitment to expanding its digital currency holdings in anticipation of dwindling supply.
The investment amounted to approximately $255 million, with the average cost per Bitcoin coming in at $77,906. Following this acquisition, Strategy’s total Bitcoin treasury swells to an impressive 818,334 coins, cementing its status as the largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally. To accumulate this vast collection, the firm has invested around $61.81 billion, averaging $75,537 per Bitcoin.
Saylor highlighted the effectiveness of the company’s unique financial strategy, reporting an impressive 9.6% yield on their Bitcoin holdings for the year 2026. This yield reflects the company’s efforts to increase its Bitcoin possession relative to its share count. By leveraging both stock and debt, Strategy aims to ensure that shareholders gain a more substantial stake in Bitcoin over time.

On the same day, Strive purchased 789 Bitcoin for about $61.43 million, bringing its total Bitcoin assets to 14,557, valued at nearly $1.13 billion. This development indicates a growing trend among professional investment firms to follow in Strategy’s footsteps as they seize opportunities in the current market.
