Strategy Inc Stops Buying Bitcoin for the First Time in 13 Weeks

For the first time in 13 weeks, Strategy Inc has not bought any new Bitcoin. According to the latest SEC 8-K filing, Strategy made no Bitcoin purchases and sold no shares under its at-the-market offering program. As of today, the company holds approximately 762,099 Bitcoin, acquired at an aggregate cost of $57.69 billion with an average purchase price of about $75,694 per BTC.

This pause follows a month of massive Bitcoin Accumulation, driven largely by STRC preferred stock issuances alongside common stock activity. Earlier in March, Strategy executed its largest weekly buy of 2026, adding 22,337 BTC for roughly $1.57 billion, with significant funding from STRC. When STRC traded above its $100 par value last week, we estimated it could have supported around 141 BTC in purchases. However, official filings confirm no such buy occurred during the reporting period.

STRC Bitcoin Funding has become a key pillar of Strategy’s strategy. The variable rate Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock (STRC), offering an attractive dividend (recently around 11.5%), provides flexible capital with less dilution than straight equity. Last time STRC sustained trading over $100, it enabled Strategy to raise enough to acquire 22,066 BTC in a single aggressive wave. At the time of writing, STRC sits at $99.98, hovering just below the threshold that typically unlocks the next surge in issuance and deployment into Bitcoin.

Strategy also announced last Monday a refreshed $42 billion capital-raising program, split between common stock and additional STRC capacity. This move, combined with the current buying pause, suggests the company is loading up for something massive in the coming weeks and months. Executive Chairman Michael Saylor reinforced the bullish outlook by updating his profile with laser eyes on X over the weekend — a classic signal that big developments are on the horizon.

The brief rest period could set the stage for the next big Bitcoin Accumulation spree once the preferred shares push back above par. Investors continue to watch closely as Strategy’s self-reinforcing flywheel of capital raises and Bitcoin purchases shows no signs of slowing overall.
