Strategy, the largest digital asset treasury (DAT) in the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem, has announced a new purchase of BTC after increasing its dollar reserves last week.

Michael Saylor, Strategy’s Executive Chairman, announced on social media that the company had returned to purchase Bitcoin this week. He disclosed that the company had acquired 1,229 BTC at $108.8 million, paying an average of $88,568 per coin.

With this acquisition, Strategy’s vaults now hold 672,497 BTC, having spent over $50 billion in its journey to amass the largest quantity of bitcoin possible, with an average price of nearly $74,500 per coin.

The purchase had been anticipated by Saylor, who, instead of hinting at a new green dot (dollar reserve increase), posted “back to orange” in social media on December 28.

2025 has been a tumultuous year for the company, which has turned to build a reserve of over $2 billion, destined to support dividend payments and interest obligations. The funds to establish this reserve came from share sales, a move that was criticized by some for diluting shareholders.

Bitcoin critic and metal aficionado Peter Schiff criticized Strategy’s move, stating that using the recently established dollar reserves to purchase more bitcoin was pointless.

Schiff assessed:

What is the point of selling down your newly established Treasury reserve to buy even more Bitcoin, especially when your stock trades at a discount to the Bitcoin you already own?

Shares of Strategy (MSTR) have also fallen drastically this year, experiencing a decline of over 45% year-to-date (YTD). Nonetheless, Saylor remains a bitcoin permabull, having recently stated that this was a time to “ride the bear,” referring to bitcoin’s disappointing performance in 2025.
