\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe company and its former CEO attracted a lot of controversy recently after hinting at potentially selling some of the BTC holdings. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Michael Saylor\u2019s business intelligence software giant, which turned into a massive bitcoin buyer, missed the mark last week but promised to return with more BTC accumulation.<\/p>\n
It made it official minutes ago, announcing the latest substantial acquisition of 535 BTC for $43 million. The total stash has grown to 818,869 BTC, acquired for almost $62 billion.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s worth noting that Strategy\u2019s position has turned green as the average acquisition price stands at $75,540, and its holdings\u2019 current value is up to over $66 billion as of press time.<\/p>\n
\nStrategy has acquired 535 BTC for ~$43.0 million at ~$80,340 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 9.4% YTD 2026. As of 5\/10\/2026, we hodl 818,869 $BTC<\/a> acquired for ~$61.86 billion at ~$75,540 per bitcoin. $MSTR<\/a> $STRC<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/qScHXi2BBJ<\/a><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s announcement comes shortly after Strategy\u2019s Q1 results<\/a> from last week, which outlined a substantial $12.5 billion loss mostly due to bitcoin\u2019s declining price in that period.<\/p>\n
Separately, the firm\u2019s former CEO and co-founder, Michael Saylor, attracted some controversy earlier this month when he hinted that Strategy could sell some BTC to cover operational costs or pay dividends to shareholders.<\/p>\n
It was a bit of a surprise for most investors as he had previously sworn not to sell any BTC. The topic went viral, and many industry participants weighed in. Some, such as Samson Mow, believe<\/a> Strategy has the right to sell to fulfill its obligations to investors.<\/p>\n

Agne Linge, Advisor to the Board at Wefi, told CryptoPotato<\/em> that if Saylor and his company decide to sell, it would be a \u201ccalculated decision\u201d rather than issuing new shares to fund dividend payments.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI think the market for Bitcoin is rather mature, considering the players that are involved now- institutionals, seasoned long-term traders, therefore they understand that Mr. Saylor is running strategies for his corporation,\u201d Linge added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
