Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) said it purchased 4,225 Bitcoin for approximately $472.5 million between July 7 and 13, according to a July 14 statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The acquisition, made at an average price of $111,827 per Bitcoin, brings the company’s total holdings to 601,550 BTC. These assets were acquired for $42.87 billion, at an average cost of $71,268 per coin.
As of press time, Strategy’s Bitcoin treasury is worth $72.74 billion, representing a nearly 70% gain based on current market prices.
Strategy sold various classes of stock to fund the purchase, including 797,008 shares of its MSTR common stock for $330.9 million. The firm also raised $141.4 million from preferred stock sales: $71.1 million from STRK, $55.3 million from STRF, and $15 million from STRD.
Crypto analyst Ragnar noted:
“The market was open 32.5 hours last week. So MSTR raised $14.53 million per hour and $242,205 per minute while the market was open. Incredible performance if you compare it with other treasury companies.”
As of July 13, the preferred stock instruments have an estimated $7.35 billion annual run rate and have helped the company achieve a Bitcoin Yield of 20.2% year-to-date. This yield reflects the ratio of BTC holdings to diluted shares and is used to measure value creation from BTC without liquidating assets.
