\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe last time the company spent so much money at once was just after the 2024 US presidential elections.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Strategy has really ramped up its bitcoin purchases with two consecutive ones that were worth over $1 billion. However, the latest, announced just minutes ago, set a multi-year record.<\/p>\n
The largest corporate holder of bitcoin splashed over $2.5 billion to acquire 34,164 BTC at an average price of $74,395 per unit. This massive acquisition puts the company\u2019s total stash at 815,061 BTC, purchased for $61.56 billion (at an average price of $75,527).<\/p>\n
Given the cryptocurrency\u2019s correction and failure at $78,400 last Friday, this means that Strategy still sits on a minor paper loss, but the gap has narrowed since the February lows.<\/p>\n

Recall that the Michael Saylor-founded firm spent<\/a> $1 billion during the previous massive BTC purchase announced last Monday. However, the one for $2.54 billion outlined now is the biggest since late November 2024, when the firm bought 55,500 BTC for $5.4 billion when the asset traded close to $100,000.<\/p>\n
The company\u2019s stock prices jumped last week alongside the rest of the financial markets. MSTR ended with a 32% surge in 5 days, closing at over $166 on Friday. However, it has declined by more than 2% in pre-market trading, and is expected to experience even more volatility after today\u2019s opening bell on Wall Street.<\/p>\n
