Strategy Boosts USD Reserves by $450 Million Without Touching Its Bitcoin Holdings

Strategy added $450 million to its cash reserves this week without selling a single coin. The company’s CEO Michael Saylor said the funds came through an at the market common stock offering, pushing the firm’s total USD reserves to $3 billion. That cash cushion is now large enough to cover several years of dividend payments if the need arises.

Bitcoin Holdings Remain Untouched

For the crypto industry, the key detail is that Strategy managed this cash raise without dipping into its bitcoin stockpile. The company still holds 843,775 BTC, worth just over $53 billion at a price of around $63,000 per coin. Unlike previous moves, this update did not involve growing or shrinking that position.

Recent Bitcoin Sale Still Fresh in Investors’ Minds

The news comes just days after Strategy carried out its largest bitcoin sale on record, offloading 3,588 BTC. Bitcoin’s price dipped briefly following that sale before recovering to its earlier level. Market watchers remain split on what the sale signals for the company’s long-term strategy and for bitcoin more broadly.

Stock Reaction Fades by Week’s End

Shares of Strategy’s stock, traded under the ticker MSTR, initially rallied from $95 to above $100 after the sale was announced. However, that momentum did not hold, and the stock gave back its gains by the end of the trading week.
