MicroStrategy Buys 3,015 BTC, Holdings Reach 720,737 BTC

MicroStrategy completed its 101st Bitcoin purchase last week, adding 3,015 BTC for $204.1 million, an acquisition the company disclosed in a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing. The tranche’s reported average price was $67,700 per coin, below MicroStrategy’s overall average acquisition cost of $75,985.

The latest buy lifts MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings to 720,737 BTC, bought for roughly $54.8 billion in aggregate. According to data compiled by SaylorTracker, this is one of only a few purchases that landed beneath the company’s cost basis.

Earlier this year, on Feb. 9, MicroStrategy bought 1,142 BTC during a market dip; that batch’s reported average acquisition price was $78,815, which was higher than the market price at the time but still below some internal benchmarks. The company also experienced a below-cost buying stretch in 2022–2023, completing seven purchases totaling 28,560 BTC when market prices fell under its then cost basis of about $30,600.

MicroStrategy’s Nasdaq-listed shares (MSTR) saw modest appreciation last week, rising from roughly $125 at the start of the week to nearly $130 by Friday, per TradingView. Bitcoin itself traded in a range over the period: beginning the week near $65,000, briefly topping $69,000 midweek, dipping under $64,000, and trading around $65,834 at the time of the filing.

Separately, MicroStrategy’s chairman announced an increase in the dividend on the company’s STRC preferred stock (branded "Stretch") to 11.50% for March 2026, up from 11.25%. Capital raised through that preferred stock can be deployed for corporate purposes, including potential future Bitcoin purchases.
