Strategy Buys 1,955 Bitcoin for $217 Million in Eighth Straight Week

The company financed the purchase with at-the-market share issuances, highlighting how corporate treasuries are capturing a growing share of new supply.

Overview

  • An SEC filing shows Strategy acquired 1,955 BTC between Sept. 2–7 at an average price of $111,196, funded by selling 591,606 common shares for $200.5 million plus $16.9 million in preferred stock.
  • Total holdings now stand at 638,460 BTC acquired for about $47.17 billion at an average of $73,880 per coin, with a reported 25.8% BTC Yield year to date.
  • The latest buy extends a multi-week accumulation program and follows the company’s recent exclusion from the S&P 500 index.
  • Japan’s Metaplanet added 136 BTC to reach 20,136 BTC, as industry trackers report public companies now hold more than one million BTC overall.
  • Strategy and Metaplanet together bought roughly 66% of newly mined coins in the latest period, tightening available supply and drawing scrutiny over dilution from ongoing stock issuance.
