Michael Saylor’s Strategy, the largest public corporate holder of bitcoin, expanded its holdings today by purchasing 3,081 BTC for $356.9 million as the bitcoin price slipped to $112,000.
This latest acquisition was disclosed in a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, with the company paying an average price of $115,829 per bitcoin.
Ongoing accumulation
Strategy’s recent purchase occurred as bitcoin began the week trading near $116,700 and declined to $112,000 by Thursday.
The company’s continued accumulation underscores its confidence in bitcoin as a treasury asset.
With this acquisition, Strategy’s total holdings now stand at 632,457 BTC, acquired for approximately $46.5 billion at an average price of $73,527 per coin.

August purchases slow after July surge
In August, Strategy has purchased a total of 3,666 BTC, including two earlier buys of 430 BTC and 155 BTC.
This marks a notable slowdown from July, when the company acquired 31,466 BTC, and from June’s purchase of 17,075 BTC.
Strategy’s approach to market dips
Strategy appears to be using market downturns as buying opportunities.
The company stated in its SEC filing:
“Strategy acquired 3,081 additional bitcoins for approximately $356.9 million in cash during the week ending August 18, 2025.”
