Overview
- Strategy disclosed Monday in an SEC filing that it bought 34,164 bitcoin for about $2.54 billion at an average price of $74,395, lifting its holdings to 815,061 BTC.
- The company funded the purchase with roughly $2.176 billion from at-the-market sales of its STRC preferred stock and $366 million from common stock issuance.
- With 815,061 BTC reported, Strategy has surpassed BlackRock’s tally and is now the largest institutional or organizational holder tracked by public disclosures.
- The company filed a preliminary proxy to shift STRC dividends from monthly to semi-monthly, with a definitive filing expected April 28 and a shareholder vote set for June 8.
- Analysts highlight balance-sheet risks, noting about $1.24 billion in yearly dividend and interest payments and a cash reserve near $2.25 billion that makes continued issuance access critical.
