🟠 Michael Saylor Announces Strategy’s 63,410 BTC Gain YTD
According to Michael Saylor, Strategy’s Founder and Chairman, the digital asset management firm has generated 63,410 BTC gain YTD, worth approximately $5.1 billion. This earning has boosted Strategy’s Bitcoin holding to 3.9% of the entire Bitcoin network, further solidifying the company’s status as the largest corporate holder of the cryptocurrency.
🔸 How is Strategy Performing?
Strategy’s total Bitcoin holding was 818,334 BTC, according to Saylor’s latest post, reflecting the firm’s aggressive accumulation pattern that has acted as a bullish force for the cryptocurrency over the years. Despite notable pressure across the broader global markets in 2026, Strategy maintained its Bitcoin purchase philosophy, accumulating the digital asset amid a bear market.
It is worth noting that Strategy’s BTC purchase pace in 2026 was 2.5 times the amount of Bitcoins produced by miners during the same period. For context, the firm’s latest purchase of 34,164 BTC in April brought its 2026 purchase to over 100,000 Bitcoins, with an average purchase cost of $75,537 per coin.
🔸 A “Bitcoin Acquisition Machine”
Besides boosting Bitcoin’s buying momentum, Strategy’s influence on the market is undeniable. The firm has effectively created a “Bitcoin Acquisition Machine” that has become an institutional catalyst, providing a blueprint that many corporations follow. This has boosted the cryptocurrency’s adoption and resistance to bear pressure.
For instance, despite persistent negative developments within the global economic ecosystem, Bitcoin has maintained a bullish outlook for the past month. The cryptocurrency has gained over 25% since the beginning of April, recently breaking above a significant resistance level at $80,000.
