Strategy Reaches 780,897 Bitcoin After Largest Buy in Recent Months
Executive Chairman Michael Saylor confirmed the purchase on X, noting the company has now achieved a BTC Yield of 5.6 percent year-to-date in 2026. The announcement came just seconds after markets opened, with Saylor posting the figures directly from strategy.com.
As of April 12, 2026, Strategy holds 780,897 bitcoin acquired for a cumulative cost of approximately $59.02 billion, at an average purchase price of $75,577 per coin. The latest buy of $1 billion marks one of the company’s largest single-week acquisitions in recent months.
The purchase follows a series of statements Saylor made on X in the days prior. On April 9, he posted “Still stacking” alongside the BTC ticker. He also shared a Strategytracker.com chart mapping more than 100 of the company’s prior purchase events against bitcoin’s price history dating back to August 2020.
Saylor separately disclosed that Strategy’s BTC Breakeven Annual Return Rate stands at approximately 2.05 percent, stating the company can cover preferred stock dividends indefinitely without issuing new MSTR shares if bitcoin grows faster than that threshold.
Strategy continues to fund bitcoin acquisitions through equity and convertible debt offerings tied to its MSTR and STRC tickers. The company remains the largest known corporate holder of bitcoin globally.
The $71,902 average purchase price on this latest acquisition sits below the firm’s overall cost basis of $75,577, indicating the company bought into a price dip relative to its historical average.
