Michael Saylor’s Strategy, the world’s largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder, has continued its gradual accumulation of the cryptocurrency, adding $22.1 million worth of BTC last week.
According to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Strategy purchased 196 BTC at an average price of $113,048 per coin during the week ending Sunday.
Saylor’s market perspective
Bitcoin started the week above $112,000 and dropped below $110,000 last Thursday, due to Coinmarketcap data.
The purchase, made as Bitcoin’s price dipped below $110,000, raises Strategy’s total holdings to 640,031 BTC, acquired at an average cost of approximately $73,983 per coin, representing a total investment of around $47.35 billion.
While this acquisition is one of Strategy’s smaller weekly purchases in recent months, it showes a consistent institutional strategy to accumulate Bitcoin gradually, even amid price fluctuations. Smaller weekly buys may reflect the company’s risk management approach, adjusting for macroeconomic conditions and market liquidity.
Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor provided insight into the company’s outlook, showing that Bitcoin could begin a renewed upward trajectory toward year-end.
Speaking publicly, Saylor said:
“I think that as we work through the resistance of late and some macro headwinds, we’ll actually see Bitcoin start to move up smartly again toward the end of the year.”
Institutional adoption trends
Public companies, hedge funds, and family offices have increasingly integrated BTC into their balance sheets to diversify assets and hedge against fiat currency fluctuations.
Hedge funds such as Galaxy Digital and Pantera Capital have launched dedicated Bitcoin funds, offering institutional investors regulated avenues to gain exposure without directly holding the underlying assets.
Family offices, traditionally conservative, are also exploring Bitcoin allocations as part of multi-asset portfolios, seeking to protect long-term wealth from fiat currency devaluation.
These moves indicate that corporate and institutional interest in digital assets is no longer speculative but increasingly structured, strategic, and compliance-driven, reflecting growing confidence in Bitcoin as a long-term asset class.
Additionally, some companies are pairing Bitcoin adoption with treasury management strategies, including stablecoin reserves, staking, or lending programs, to enhance liquidity and potential returns.
Looking ahead
While Strategy’s weekly purchases have slowed compared to earlier in the year, the company’s position as the largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder reinforces its long-term commitment to the asset.
Analysts suggest that these strategies often involve dollar-cost averaging, allowing companies to mitigate the impact of short-term volatility while gradually increasing exposure to digital assets.
