Strategy Resumes Purchasing Bitcoins After Temporary Pause After taking a break for a week, Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor announced the company will resume purchasing Bitcoins on Monday. This comes after Strategy raised $4.2 billion in capital, an indication of sustained trust in BTC during short-term accumulation pauses. “Some weeks, you don’t just HODL,” Saylor tweeted Sunday, referencing the return of aggressive buying since the record 12-week buying spree in BTC ran out last week. Largest Corporate BTC Holder Vouches for Its Commitment Strategy’s latest Bitcoin purchase was on June 30, when 4,980 BTC were purchased at a cost of $532 million. The corporation’s holdings were then at 597,325 BTC, which is now worth over $70.9 billion. The firm remains the largest corporate owner of Bitcoin and still finances purchases with debt and equity instruments – a bold strategy that makes it the leader of Bitcoin treasury companies. Treasury Demand Outstrips BTC Mining Supply BitcoinTreasuries data shows that BTC treasury companies bought 159,107 BTC in Q2 2025 – more than double the approximately 13,500 per month mined. Strategy alone has accumulated 379,800 BTC in the past six months, or about 2,087 BTC per day. “The company is effectively halving Bitcoin,” wrote Adam Livingston, author of The Great Harvest. “Strategy is rapidly passing miners and may become an economic superpower soon.” Market Impact and Sustainability Concerns Strategy’s speed of rapid acquisitions is reshaping the Bitcoin market. With miners taking out about 450 BTC every day, and big firms buying at a higher rate, experts warn of a potential supply shock. While this would drive prices up, the debt-financed nature of such purchases raises long-term sustainability concerns. Nevertheless, investor demand is still present. Strategy stocks are up more than 16% this month, trading at about $434 – though still well short of the November 2024 peak of $543.
