Strategy (MSTR) Acquired 855 Bitcoin Ahead of Last Week's Market Crash

MicroStrategy funded its $75 million bitcoin purchase through an equity sale, increasing its holdings to 713,502 BTC amid recent crypto market declines.

  • On February 1, 2026, the company disclosed buying 855 BTC for $75.3 million at just above $77,000 per bitcoin, as reported in a company update.
  • Using proceeds from ATM share sales, Strategy sold 673,527 shares between January 26, 2026 and February 1, 2026, generating $106.1 million.
  • The filing shows an aggregate cost basis of $54.26 billion with Strategy holding 713,502 BTC as of February 1, 2026 at about $76,052 per bitcoin inclusive of fees and expenses.
  • The modest purchase highlighted buys were relatively small compared with prior routine acquisitions, with bitcoin trading just above $77,000 and MSTR shares at a multi‑year low of $138.80, affecting breakeven after about 5.5 years of buying BTC.
  • In the broader market context, the purchase occurred amid broad crypto market capitulation driven by leverage washouts and reinforces Strategy's position as the largest corporate holder of bitcoin.
