In a historic move, Strategy Inc purchased an additional 34,164 Bitcoin during the week of April 13 to April 19, 2026, bringing its total holdings to 815,061 Bitcoin. This marks a significant milestone as Strategy also passed the 800,000 Bitcoin mark, making it the first company ever to do so. The company has now surpassed BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust, which holds approximately 802,823 Bitcoin. Just one week earlier, Strategy held 780,897 Bitcoin, representing rapid growth that we had anticipated through our STRC Bitcoin accumulation tracker.

Strategy CEO Phong Le highlighted: “In one week, we increased BTC Gain by 82% to $4.97 billion for the year. This reflects the reflexive power of combining appreciating bitcoin (digital capital) with accretive financing (digital credit).”

This week’s acquisition is the company’s third-largest Bitcoin purchase on record. Our prediction last week, based on our STRC tracker, estimated 26,334 Bitcoin would be acquired through STRC. The actual amount came in at 29,254 Bitcoin, meaning our forecast was off by 10.9%. As a result, 85.6% of this week’s total purchase was funded directly by the STRC offering. The remaining 4,919 Bitcoin were acquired through regular common stock at-the-market sales.

We continue to lead the space with the most accurate STRC tracker, while other monitors have shown deviations of up to 200%. As additional data becomes available, our estimations will improve further, though official confirmation through SEC filings will always arrive approximately one week after the purchases occur.

The latest filing confirms the Bitcoin was acquired at an average price of $74,395 per coin, for a weekly total outlay of $2.54 billion. Strategy’s overall Bitcoin treasury now carries an aggregate purchase cost of $61.56 billion, reflecting an average cost basis of $75,527 per Bitcoin.

The sustained pace of these acquisitions points toward a long-term trend that could position Strategy to reach one million Bitcoin by November 2026, according to projections aligned with BitcoinTreasuries.NET data. The company maintains substantial capacity under its existing ATM programs to support continued accumulation.

Meanwhile, BlackRock’s IBIT added an estimated 12,015 Bitcoin over the same period. The entrance of major institutions such as Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs into the Bitcoin ETF market introduces new competition for IBIT, particularly around fee structures and accessibility. Strategy’s approach remains distinct, with its STRC bitcoin accumulation tracker serving as a powerful mechanism to channel global credit market demand directly into Bitcoin holdings on the corporate balance sheet.

This development underscores Strategy Inc’s transformation into a leading vehicle for institutional Bitcoin ownership. By leveraging innovative capital-raising tools, the company is not only building one of the largest Bitcoin treasuries in the world but also setting a precedent for how corporations can integrate Bitcoin as a core strategic asset. The market will be closely watching the next weekly update to see how this momentum evolves.
