Strategy continues to expand its position as the largest publicly traded corporate holder of Bitcoin. Led by executive chairman Michael Saylor, the company held 738,731 BTC as of last Monday despite market volatility and pressure on its stock price.

Weekly Purchases Needed to Reach 1 Million BTC

To reach a total of 1 million BTC by Dec. 31, the company would need to acquire an additional 261,269 coins. With about 42 weeks remaining in 2026, that translates to an average purchase rate of roughly 6,158 BTC each week.

Assuming an average bitcoin price of $85,000, the required capital deployment would be around $523 million per week, or about $22.2 billion in total.
