Michael Saylor's strategy to buy an additional $255 million worth of Bitcoin, market remains cautious
This purchase was made at a price of $77,906 USD per Bitcoin. After the transaction, the total holdings of the strategy increased to a record 818,334 BTC, according to BitcoinTreasuries.NET.
MAIN CONTENT
Strategy’s Bitcoin stash continues to grow
With the latest transaction, Strategy has increased its total BTC holdings to 818,334 BTC, the highest ever for this company. According to BitcoinTreasuries.NET, the portfolio’s value at the time is $61.81 billion USD.
New purchase price and current market price
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $76,451.03 USD, lower than the average purchase price of the latest batch at $77,906 USD. Comparing just this batch to the market price at that time, Strategy is temporarily at an accounting loss of about $4.76 million USD.
Meanwhile, the average purchase price of Bitcoin held by Strategy since 2020 is reported as $75,537 USD. This figure indicates the company is still accumulating near its historical cost basis, but the article does not provide additional data to better assess the overall portfolio performance.
Purchase activity follows the “Orange Dot” signal
The new purchase occurred after Saylor posted an “Orange Dot” signal on April 26. The article does not specify the full details of this signal, but it suggests the market has somewhat anticipated another Bitcoin buy announcement from Strategy.
Mixed community reactions
This transaction continues to spark debate over the strategy of using the balance sheet to accumulate Bitcoin. Peter Schiff criticized Strategy’s buy-in and argued that the company’s activity alone is not enough to push Bitcoin’s price to the $1 million forecast.
According to Livingston, most of Strategy’s debt is convertible debt rather than traditional debt, so repayment pressure might be lower. He also suggests this debt is only about 10.5% of the company’s value. However, this view still depends on whether Bitcoin prices and MSTR stock continue to rise.
Another X account, Plan C, offers an optimistic outlook, suggesting Strategy could reach a $1 trillion market cap within 5 years and $2 to $2.5 trillion in 7 to 9 years if both the “Saylor Curve” and “Bitcoin Power Curve” remain unchanged. This is a forecast, not verified data from the article.
Current market signals remain quite mixed
At the same time Strategy bought more BTC, MSTR stock traded at $169.20 USD, down 1.06% for the day but still up over 11% since the start of the year. On the other hand, the Bitcoin spot ETF market recorded a $263.2 million USD outflow on April 27 after a previous period of inflows.
More data needed to confirm a more sustained trend
Based on current figures, Strategy remains one of the most active Bitcoin accumulators in the market. However, short-term signals are inconsistent: BTC price is below the new purchase price, spot ETF outflows are recorded, and on-chain data shows increased BTC transfers to exchanges. There is not enough additional data in the article to determine whether this is just short-term volatility or a sign of larger distribution pressure.
Summary
Strategy just increased its holdings to 818,334 BTC after buying an additional 3,273 BTC on April 27. This reinforces the company’s position as a major Bitcoin holder, but surrounding market conditions remain quite mixed with ETF outflows and signals of BTC moving onto exchanges. The current data describes the developments but is not sufficient to confirm the next direction of Bitcoin’s price or its longer-term impact on MSTR.
