Strategy Signals Another Massive BTC Buy After $555M Acquisition
Michael Saylor, co-founder of Strategy, has hinted at another major Bitcoin (BTC) investment, just a week after the company acquired $555 million worth of BTC at an average price of $84,785 per coin.
On April 27, Saylor posted a cryptic message on X:
“Stay Humble. Stack Sats.”

mment fueled speculation among investors that Strategy could be preparing another massive Bitcoin buy, potentially larger than the last. RunnerXBT, a popular blockchain analyst, predicted the next acquisition could fall within the $1.4 billion to $1.6 billion range — nearly three times the size of the previous purchase.
Strategy already holds over 538,200 Bitcoin, valued at more than $50.5 billion, according to Bitbo. The firm remains the largest corporate Bitcoin holder in the world.
Strategy’s Influence Extends to Asia
Strategy’s aggressive Bitcoin strategy has inspired other companies, most notably Japanese investment firm Metaplanet, which surpassed 5,000 BTC holdings on April 24. Metaplanet aims to position itself as a Bitcoin adoption leader in Asia, taking cues from Strategy’s treasury management playbook.
Whale Wallets Swell as Institutions Pile In
The broader Bitcoin market is also seeing intense accumulation from whales — large holders of BTC valued at over $1 million.
According to Glassnode data:
-
Whale wallets grew from 124,000 on April 7 to over 137,600 by April 26.
-
Wallets holding over 10,000 BTC are aggressively accumulating, with a trend score of 0.90, suggesting high conviction among the largest investors.
“Smaller investors are also pivoting toward long-term holding,” noted Iliya Kalchev, an analyst at Nexo Dispatch.
Kalchev also commented that improving geopolitical sentiment — such as Trump’s recent discussions with China over trade exemptions — is stabilizing market risk appetite, though traders are awaiting concrete actions before fully re-rating global risk.
Bitcoin ETFs See $3B Inflows, Fueling Rally
Adding to the bullish momentum, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded over $3 billion in cumulative net inflows during the past week, according to Farside Investors. This marks their second-highest week of net investments since launching earlier this year.
ETF flows, coupled with whale accumulation, have helped drive Bitcoin’s nearly 12% weekly recovery, lifting BTC back above $94,000 — a key psychological and technical milestone.
Final Thoughts: Institutional FOMO Back on the Table
Michael Saylor’s latest hint, combined with accelerating whale accumulation and ETF inflows, paints a picture of renewed institutional FOMO (fear of missing out).
As Bitcoin pushes toward the $100,000 threshold, the next major announcement from Strategy could serve as a powerful catalyst, reinforcing Bitcoin’s momentum and further cementing its status as a strategic macro asset in global investment portfolios.
With whales stacking aggressively and macro conditions turning favorable, Bitcoin’s next leg higher may already be underway.
