Strategy Bought the Bitcoin Dip – Company Plans New $1.44 Billion Reserve
Bitcoin markets may be under pressure this week, but Michael Saylor isn’t blinking. Strategy — the Bitcoin-focused entity associated with Saylor — has confirmed another purchase, adding 130 BTC to its holdings at an average price of roughly $89,960.
- Strategy purchased 130 BTC for roughly $11.7 million, bringing total holdings to 650,000 BTC.
- Its total investment now stands at about $48.38B with an average price of ~$74,436 per coin.
- The acquisition was announced alongside a new $1.44B reserve fund and updated FY 2025 guidance.
The acquisition totaled about $11.7 million and was executed during a period of heavy selling across the broader crypto market, a time when most institutional participants were scaling back risk rather than increasing exposure.
Strategy Expands Bitcoin Position Despite Market Pullback
With the latest transaction, Strategy now controls 650,000 BTC — one of the largest Bitcoin treasuries ever accumulated by a single corporate entity or public-facing organization.
According to the firm’s report, its cumulative investment has reached approximately $48.38 billion, with an average acquisition price of around $74,436 per bitcoin. The purchase was revealed alongside another significant corporate update: the establishment of a $1.44 billion USD reserve fund and updated FY 2025 guidance.

Both measures reinforce the company’s consistent thesis that Bitcoin provides long-term balance sheet protection and strategic value, even when market conditions appear unfavorable.
Saylor has repeatedly positioned Bitcoin as superior to traditional stores of value, and Strategy’s buying activity continues to reflect that stance. Rather than scaling back exposure as volatility increases, the company appears to be doubling down on the concept of Bitcoin functioning as a core treasury asset — one that is accumulated on downturns and held across market cycles instead of traded for short-term advantage.
Accumulation Continues as Indicators Flash Bearish
The timing of the purchase has attracted attention. Bitcoin has been trading in the mid-$80,000 range after a sharp decline from recent highs, and several technical indicators remain negative.
The daily RSI is hovering near oversold territory, suggesting a recent surge in selling momentum, while the MACD continues to show bearish crossover dynamics that typically precede weak price action. These indicators reflect widespread fear and profit-taking — conditions that usually discourage large-scale institutional entry.
Yet Strategy has shown a consistent pattern over the years: it tends to buy precisely when market sentiment is deteriorating and liquidity is thin. Analysts argue this approach allows the company to accumulate BTC at discounts that would be unavailable during rallies, contributing to a progressively lower blended cost basis over time. Critics counter that such aggressive tactics increase exposure to downside risk if Bitcoin enters a prolonged bear market. Still, none of that appears to be altering the company’s strategy. The message from Saylor remains the same — volatility is not a threat but an opportunity.
