Michael Saylor Signals Strategy Will Buy the Bitcoin Dip
Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor has hinted at another Bitcoin (BTC) purchase, as the world’s largest cryptocurrency trades around $115,000, retreating from its recent all-time high above $124,000.
Strategy Prepares for Next Buy
On Monday, Strategy purchased 155 BTC for $18 million, lifting its total holdings to 628,946 BTC, worth over $74.2 billion at current prices. According to SaylorTracker, the company’s Bitcoin portfolio is up more than 60%, reflecting $28 billion in unrealized gains.
Strategy remains the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, acting as a proxy investment vehicle for institutional funds restricted from directly holding BTC and retail investors who prefer not to custody their own crypto. The firm is credited with pioneering the corporate Bitcoin treasury model, inspiring numerous companies—including those accumulating altcoins—to follow suit.
Saylor Unfazed by Altcoin Treasuries
Despite the rise of firms buying and holding altcoins, Saylor has made it clear he is laser-focused on Bitcoin.
“I still think the vast majority of the capital flowing into the space is flowing into Bitcoin,” Saylor told Bloomberg in August.
He highlighted that the number of companies with Bitcoin treasuries has jumped from 60 to 160 in just six months, reinforcing his belief that BTC remains the dominant asset in the digital economy.
Accelerated Accumulation Since Trump’s Election
Since U.S. President Donald Trump’s election in November 2024, Strategy has more than doubled its Bitcoin holdings, acquiring 376,726 BTC in only nine months. For comparison, it took over four years to accumulate the previous 252,220 BTC.
The company first began buying Bitcoin in 2020. Since then, its stock has surged by nearly 2,600% over five years, attracting attention from institutional investors, crypto traders, and retail equity buyers.
Market Leadership
With 628,946 BTC in its treasury, Strategy holds more Bitcoin than the top 10 corporate Bitcoin holders combined, cementing its dominance and leaving competitors far behind.
As Bitcoin cools slightly from record highs, Saylor’s signal suggests Strategy could soon make another move—reaffirming its reputation as the ultimate Bitcoin corporate whale.
