Strategy (MSTR), the largest publicly listed holder of bitcoin, appears to have paused its aggressive accumulation strategy, with no evidence of a purchase announcement last week.
Executive Chairman Michael Saylor typically signals impending buys with his signature Sunday “Orange Dot” post on X, followed by a detailed disclosure on Monday morning. This time, however, the usual cue was absent. Instead, Saylor’s post highlighted the company’s perpetual preferred equity offering, Stretch (STRC), suggesting no new bitcoin was added.
The apparent pause would end a run of around 13 consecutive weeks of buying that began in late December, during which the firm accumulated 90,831 BTC.
According to Strategy’s latest figures, the Tysons Corner, Virginia-based company now holds 762,099 bitcoin, acquired at an average price of $75,694 per token.
The break in buying activity comes as MSTR shares remain about 76% below their all-time high, while bitcoin continues to trade below $67,000.
