The world’s largest Bitcoin reserve company, Strategy Inc. (hereafter “Strategy”), released its latest 8-K report on March 2, announcing recent developments in its Bitcoin investment strategy.

Last week’s purchase details: average entry price $67,000
According to documents filed with the SEC, between February 23 and March 1, 2026, Strategy bought a total of 3,015 Bitcoin. The total purchase cost was about $204.1 million. Including related fees and expenses, the average purchase price per Bitcoin was approximately $67,700. This move indicates that Strategy remains committed to a steadfast buying strategy despite market volatility.
Funding source revealed: raised capital via “ATM” stock issuance
The funds for this purchase mainly came from the company’s “At-The-Market” (ATM) stock sale program. During the same period, Strategy sold 1,730,563 Class A common shares (trading symbol: MSTR) and 71,590 Series A perpetual preferred shares (STRC), raising net proceeds of about $237.1 million after commissions. The company explicitly stated that all proceeds from these sales were used to increase its Bitcoin holdings.
Total holdings astonishing: over 720,000 Bitcoin
As of March 1, 2026, Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings reached an astonishing 720,737 BTC. To build this massive digital asset reserve, the company has invested approximately $54.77 billion, with an average cost basis of about $75,985 per Bitcoin. Although current costs are higher than last week’s average purchase price, Strategy continues to expand its crypto reserves through leverage and equity financing.
Financial strategies: dividend payouts and transparency
In addition to increasing Bitcoin holdings, Strategy announced several financial adjustments. The board declared a special dividend payable on March 31, along with an adjustment to the annual dividend rate of some preferred shares to 11.50%. To maintain transparency, Strategy encourages investors to regularly check its website dashboard, which provides real-time data on stock prices, Bitcoin holdings, and key performance indicators.
Overall, Strategy’s latest actions reaffirm its long-term commitment to Bitcoin as a core reserve asset. Through flexible capital market operations, the company continues to tightly integrate its corporate value with Bitcoin’s development.
