Saylor Dots 1,587 More BTC, Pads $1.1B War Chest for Dividend Bill 📊

Strategy, the Tysons Corner, Virginia-based software firm turned largest corporate Bitcoin holder, acquired 1,587 BTC for $100 million between June 8 and June 14 at an average price of $63,024 per coin, according to a Monday 8-K filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The purchase lifts the company's holdings to 846,842 BTC, accumulated at a blended average price of $75,656 for a total cost of $64.07 billion. At Bitcoin's price of about $66,216, the stack is worth roughly $56.1 billion, per CoinGecko data.

The buy was funded through at-the-market sales of MSTR common stock, with Strategy raising about $209 million by selling roughly 1.73 million shares during the period. Preferred share programs STRC, STRF, STRK and STRD showed no activity during the week. Strategy also disclosed it raised its USD Reserve by $100 million to $1.1 billion, a buffer the company created in December 2025 to cover preferred dividends and interest on debt. STRC, which offers an 11.5% annual dividend and recently shifted from monthly to semi-monthly payouts, traded below its $100 par value for a fourth consecutive week, closing at $94.80 on Friday, according to STRC.live and TradingView data.

The acquisition marks the second consecutive week of buying and follows Strategy's June 1 disclosure that it sold 32 BTC to fund preferred dividends, its first reported Bitcoin sale in years. Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor signaled the latest move in a Sunday X post, writing, "Still adding dots," alongside the company's signature orange-dots chart. The company also introduced a new metric, CEBE BPS, which tracks Bitcoin owned per share after senior claims, refining the long-standing BPS measure.

Strategy shares rose 7.2% to $132.66 on Monday, per Yahoo Finance, climbing as high as $136 in pre-market trading. Bitcoin was up about 4% over the prior 24 hours, trading above $66,500. Strategy's average cost basis remains above the market price, leaving the holdings roughly $7.8 billion underwater, while MSTR trades near 0.8 times the net value of its Bitcoin holdings, according to analyst Quinn Thompson.
