Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin treasury firm Strategy has added another $1 billion worth of Bitcoin to its holdings, with the latest purchase financed through its STRC preferred stock offering.
Strategy Adds 13,927 BTC To Its Coffers
Strategy snatched up an additional 13,927 Bitcoin for roughly $1 billion at an average price of $71,902 per coin between April 6 and April 12, according to a Monday filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission—marking its fourth-largest weekly purchase so far this year.
The latest purchase lifts the Tysons Corner, Virginia-based firm’s total stash to 780,897 BTC, accumulated for roughly $59.02 billion at an average cost basis of $75,577. For context, that represents more than 3.7% of Bitcoin’s capped 21 million supply, implying about $3.6 billion in unrealized losses at current price levels.
Strategy funded its latest purchases by selling over 10 million shares of its variable-rate preferred shares, STRC, last week, raising about $1 billion.
Michael Saylor offered his usual Sunday teaser ahead of Strategy’s latest Bitcoin buy, posting an update on the firm’s acquisition tracker with the message “Think ₿igger”—hinting at a potentially large upcoming buy of Bitcoin.



 Strategy Closing In on BlackRock’s BTC ETF Holdings
Some commentators noted on Monday that Strategy is now within striking distance of BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, which is estimated to hold around 790,000 BTC.
If inflows remain steady over the next week, Strategy would need to acquire roughly 9,000 BTC to overtake the Wall Street-leading vehicle and claim the second spot — trailing only the pseudonymous Bitcoin inventor Satoshi Nakamoto.
Bitcoin Eyes $80K
Bitcoin was changing hands around $71,998 as of press time, according to CoinMarketCap data.
Speaking at a recent Mizuho investor event, Saylor said Bitcoin likely bottomed near $60,000, arguing that major market declines tend to end not with improving sentiment but with the exhaustion of forced sellers. He also downplayed concerns around quantum computing risks, describing them as ultimately solvable over time.
The benchmark crypto could climb above $80,000 this month if bullish momentum strengthens further—especially if strong buying from Strategy continues and geopolitical tensions involving Iran continue to ease, boosting overall risk appetite.
