According to a Monday SEC filing<\/a>, Strategy purchased the bitcoin at an average price of $95,167 per coin between April 28 and May 4. The acquisition brings the company\u2019s total holdings to 555,450 BTC, acquired for approximately $38.08 billion at an average price of $68,550 per bitcoin.<\/p>\n The latest purchase was funded through a combination of common stock and preferred stock sales, with $128.5 million raised through Strategy\u2019s<\/a> common stock ATM program and $51.8 million through sales of STRK preferred shares. The transaction notably exhausts Strategy\u2019s previous $21 billion ATM offering launched last year.<\/p>\n Last week, Strategy<\/a> announced plans to double its capital raising capacity, introducing a new $21 billion ATM offering and expanding its debt purchase program to $42 billion. The expanded programs signal the company\u2019s intent to continue its bitcoin accumulation strategy.<\/p>\n Strategy remains the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, with its holdings representing approximately 2.64% of Bitcoin\u2019s maximum supply. At current prices around $94,000, the company\u2019s bitcoin stack is valued at over $52 billion.<\/p>\n The purchase comes amid strong institutional demand for Bitcoin through regulated vehicles, with BlackRock\u2019s<\/a> iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) recording massive inflows in the last 2 weeks.<\/p>\n
