Strategy’s bitcoin holdings reach value of $73B+

As bitcoin broke $86,000 on Monday, its highest point since January, the value of Tysons-based Strategy‘s holdings breached $73 billion.

As of 4:40 p.m. Monday, bitcoins were trading for $86,952.71 apiece.

Strategy, which is widely reported to be the world’s largest corporate bitcoin holder, bought 950 bitcoins from Sept. 14 to Sept. 20 for $75.7 million — averaging about $79,670 per coin.

As of Sunday, the company previously known as MicroStrategy held 846,000 bitcoins purchased for $63.8 billion total, or $75,416 on average, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing. As of 4:40 p.m., Strategy’s total bitcoin holdings were worth more than $73.56 billion.

Strategy’s cryptocurrency investment strategy has been led by billionaire Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, who stepped down as CEO after the company’s August 2022 earnings report.

Bitcoin’s peak was on Oct. 6, 2025, when coins sold for $126,210.50 apiece, according to Coinbase.

At market close Monday, Strategy shares were trading for $168.50, up slightly from its opening price of $164.58 and from its previous closing price of $153.92.

The company reported $122.4 million in revenue in the second quarter of its fiscal 2026, up 6.9% year-over-year. It also reported an operating loss of $8.33 billion for the quarter.

MicroStrategy announced its first bitcoin purchase in August 2020, saying it had converted $250 million from its cash holdings to more than 21,000 bitcoins, making it one of the first public companies to convert its cash treasury reserves into cryptocurrency as a store of value.
