Strategy Now Owns 3.8% Of All Bitcoin After Latest $1B Purchase

Strategy added 13,927 Bitcoin (BTC) worth roughly $1 billion to its treasury, expanding total corporate holdings to 780,897 BTC valued at $59.02 billion.

Saylor's $1B Bitcoin Purchase

Executive Chairman Michael Saylor disclosed the acquisition on X, noting an average purchase price of $71,902 per coin. Strategy's blended cost basis now stands at $75,577 per BTC across all purchases.

The company controls approximately 3.8% of Bitcoin's entire circulating supply.

That figure dwarfs every other publicly traded holder — the next largest, Twenty One Capital, owns just 43,514 BTC.

Saylor also highlighted a financial metric tied to the firm's dividend obligations. Strategy's holdings need to grow only 2.05% annually to cover all preferred stock dividends without issuing new common shares. The company funds purchases primarily through its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock, known as STRC, which yields 11.5% annually.

Strategy's Unrealized Losses and Mining Outpace

The purchase arrived alongside $14.5 billion in unrealized losses on Strategy's digital asset portfolio for Q1 2026. A roughly 20% decline in Bitcoin's price pushed valuations below the company's average cost basis.

Still, the firm reported a BTC Yield of 5.6% year to date. The metric tracks the strategy's effectiveness on a per-share basis.

Strategy's accumulation pace continues to outstrip new supply entering the market.

In Mar. 2026 alone, the company acquired 46,233 BTC — nearly three times the roughly 16,200 BTC that global miners produced during the same period. Since Aug. 2020, Strategy has made over 105 separate Bitcoin purchases.

With remaining at-the-market offering capacity exceeding $57 billion across all share classes, some analysts project Strategy could reach one million BTC as early as Nov. 2026.
