According to an announcement on Oct. 23, Strategy Inc. added 220 Bitcoin (BTC) to its reserves between Oct. 6 and Oct. 12, spending roughly $27.2 million at an average price of $123,561 per BTC.
The Tysons Corner, Virginiaโbased company, now holding 640,250 BTC worth about $73 billion, funded the acquisition through its at-the-market stock offering programs. The purchases drew from its STRF, STRK, and STRD perpetual preferred stock vehicles, which together raised $27.3 million during the period. Notably, Strategy remains the worldโs largest corporate Bitcoin holder, accounting for just over 3% of the assetโs total supply.
Corporate momentum builds as Strategyโs Bitcoin pause ends
This latest acquisition signals a return to Strategyโs routine after a characteristic pause in its buying activity at the previous quarterโs end, a pattern the market has come to expect as the firm finalizes its financial reporting.
At current market levels, Strategyโs 640,250 BTC position translates to roughly $73 billion in holdings, reflecting paper gains of about $25.6 billion based on its cumulative acquisition cost of $47.4 billion. The numbers reaffirm the companyโs role not just as Bitcoinโs largest corporate holder but as a market signal in its own right.
That influence is now visible across the corporate sector. According to data from Bitcointreasuries.net data, 188 public companies worldwide have now integrated bitcoin into their balance sheets, a movement Strategy pioneered.
While Strategyโs lead is monumental, other significant players have emerged, including mining firms like Marathon Digital Holdings with 52,850 BTC and Tether-backed entity Twenty One holding 43,514 BTC. Internationally, Japanโs Metaplanet has adopted a similar model, amassing 30,823 BTC, proving the strategyโs appeal beyond U.S. markets.
Bitcoinโs price action has remained resilient through the latest round of corporate accumulation. The asset continues to hover near $114,000, with firm technical support forming around the $115,000 level.
