Strategy Erases Last Week’s Bitcoin Sale With 1,550 BTC Purchase
Strategy, a major Bitcoin treasury firm, has made a substantial purchase of 1,550 BTC for approximately $101 million. This acquisition completely offsets the company's sale of 32 BTC just one week prior, which had negatively impacted market sentiment. Following this buy, Strategy's total Bitcoin holdings have reached a new record of 845,256 BTC. The company's leadership, including Chairman Michael Saylor and CEO Phong Le, emphasized their ongoing strategy to accumulate Bitcoin over time. Concurrently, Strategy added $100 million to its USD reserve, bringing its total to $1 billion, to ensure dividend payments. The purchase was reportedly funded through sales of the company's stock. Meanwhile, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced a fourth consecutive week of net outflows, totaling $1.72 billion last week. Bitcoin's price is currently around $63,400, reflecting a nearly 12% decline over the past seven days.
