Michael Saylor’s company Strategy has resumed its Bitcoin buying spree with the acquisition of 155 BTC, valued at approximately $18 million, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The purchase, completed between August 4 and 10 at an average price of $116,401 per coin, follows a one-week pause in accumulation.
Saylor, the company’s co-founder and chairman, hinted at the move on X (formerly Twitter) a day before the announcement, posting: “If you don’t stop buying Bitcoin, you won’t stop making money.”

While the latest addition is modest compared to previous buys including a record-setting 21,021 BTC acquisition last month, it underscores the company’s steady commitment to its Bitcoin buying spree despite short-term market fluctuations.
Strategy now controls over 628,000 BTC
Following this transaction, Strategy’s total holdings have climbed to 628,946 BTC, acquired at an aggregate purchase price of $46.09 billion. At current market value, these holdings are worth around $75.17 billion, giving the company a 63% unrealized profit.
With over 19.9 million BTC in circulation, Strategy now holds roughly 3.16% of the total supply which is a significant concentration for a single corporate entity.
Institutional analytics firm Sentora noted in a recent post that Strategy’s position far surpasses all other corporate and government Bitcoin holdings. The closest competitor, the U.S. government, holds significantly less.

The growth in Bitcoin treasuries has been pronounced. According to Sentora, the total BTC held by companies and governments has increased from 1.2 million in early 2024 to over 1.86 million in August 2025 with Strategy’s ongoing Bitcoin buying spree playing a central role in that rise.
The timing of the latest purchase coincided with a mild price retracement. Bitcoin’s value has fallen from recent highs, sliding back to the $119,700 range in the past 24 hours.
Market watchers say these conditions are precisely when Strategy tends to act.
“Saylor has consistently demonstrated a willingness to buy on weakness, treating Bitcoin volatility as an opportunity rather than a deterrent,” — Kim Ji-hoon, digital assets strategist at Seoul Blockchain Research Institute.

This approach has made the company a leading case study in aggressive, long-term corporate crypto strategy. The firm’s Bitcoin buying spree has persisted through bull and bear markets alike, often ignoring short-term price pressures in favor of long-term accumulation.
The road ahead for Bitcoin corporate treasuries
The sustained Bitcoin buying spree by Strategy may influence other corporations considering similar treasury allocations. Analysts suggest that the company’s high-profile moves help normalize Bitcoin as a legitimate reserve asset for public firms.
Still, such concentration carries both opportunity and risk. The scale of Strategy’s holdings means that its treasury decisions whether buying or selling have the potential to influence market sentiment.
“No other public company has embraced Bitcoin with the same conviction,” — David Lin, senior crypto markets analyst at GlobalCoin Metrics. “The question is whether others will follow at this pace or if Strategy’s approach remains an outlier.”
With regulatory clarity for digital assets improving in several jurisdictions and Bitcoin’s scarcity narrative remaining strong, industry observers expect corporate treasury adoption to continue growing. If so, Strategy’s role as a market leader may be further reinforced by its relentless Bitcoin buying spree.
Key takeaways
Latest Purchase: MicroStrategy has added 155 BTC to its reserves, spending approximately $18 million. This puts the average purchase price for the batch at $116,401 per coin, reflecting its continued willingness to buy at market highs.
Total Holdings: The company now holds an impressive 628,946 BTC, valued at around $75.17 billion based on current market prices. This makes MicroStrategy not just a corporate participant in Bitcoin but the single largest public company holder globally.
Market Share: With nearly 3.2% of all Bitcoin in circulation under its control, MicroStrategy wields significant influence over the market. This proportion is even more striking given Bitcoin’s capped total supply of 21 million coins.
Strategic Context: This acquisition is part of a long-running and aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy led by Executive Chairman Michael Saylor. Since 2020, MicroStrategy’s steady purchases have not only reshaped its balance sheet but also influenced corporate adoption trends across the sector, inspiring other firms to consider BTC as a treasury reserve asset.
