The move comes shortly after the US Federal Reserve reduced interest rates for the first time this year.
According to a US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing on Monday, Strategy purchased the Bitcoin at an average price of $117,344 per coin. This acquisition follows a brief market surge that pushed Bitcoin above $117,000, spurred by the Fed’s 25-basis-point cut, as reported by CoinGecko.
With this addition, Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings have reached 639,835 BTC, acquired at a cumulative cost of around $47.3 billion, representing an average price of $73,971 per coin.
Slower Purchases Reflect a Changing Market
Strategy’s latest acquisition highlights a continuing slowdown in its Bitcoin buying activity.
In September, the company added 3,330 BTC, a noticeable decline from the 7,714 BTC acquired in August and a steep drop compared with July’s 31,466 BTC.

Saylor, who has consistently advocated for long-term Bitcoin accumulation, commented on the recent market trends, noting the reduced volatility observed in recent months.
In his interview last week he said:
“If mega institutions continue to enter and volatility decreases, the market may be ‘boring’ for a while,”
“And because it’s boring, people’s adrenaline rush is going to drop.”
The remarks reflect a broader trend as institutional adoption of Bitcoin grows, potentially stabilizing prices but slowing the pace of dramatic gains and large-scale purchases.
Other companies continue aggressive bitcoin accumulation
While Strategy’s purchases have moderated, other firms are stepping up their Bitcoin acquisition efforts.
Japan’s Metaplanet, for example, reported purchasing 5,419 BTC on Monday, increasing its holdings to 25,555 BTC and positioning itself as the fifth-largest corporate Bitcoin treasury globally.
These acquisitions indicate that, even as Strategy moderates its pace, corporate demand for Bitcoin remains robust among smaller or newer institutional holders.
Bitcoin policy
Strategy’s purchase coincides with Michael Saylor preparing to attend a US government-hosted roundtable focused on advancing the BITCOIN Act, legislation aimed at establishing a national Bitcoin reserve.
Introduced by US Senator Cynthia Lummis in July 2024, the BITCOIN Act proposes that the US government purchase 200,000 BTC annually over five years, totaling 1 million Bitcoin.
The legislation represents a potential long-term demand driver for Bitcoin, aligning with Saylor’s continued advocacy for institutional and governmental adoption of the digital asset.
