Strategy, the business intelligence company widely known for its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy, has resumed buying BTC after pausing purchases last week.
The company officially announced the acquisition of an additional 535 BTC valued at approximately $43 million.
With the latest purchase, Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings have increased to 818,869 BTC, acquired at a combined cost of nearly $62 billion.
At current market prices, the company’s Bitcoin position has returned to profit territory. Strategy’s average acquisition price now stands at around $75,540 per Bitcoin, while the total value of its holdings has climbed above $66 billion.
Recent Controversy Surrounds Possible Bitcoin Sales
The latest purchase comes shortly after Strategy released its first quarter financial results, which revealed a significant $12.5 billion loss, largely driven by Bitcoin’s price decline during the period.
At the same time, the company and its co founder Michael Saylor faced criticism earlier this month after comments suggested that Strategy could potentially sell some of its Bitcoin holdings to cover operational expenses or distribute dividends to shareholders.
The remarks surprised many investors because Saylor has long maintained a strong stance against selling Bitcoin under any circumstances.
The discussion quickly gained traction across the crypto industry, with several market participants sharing mixed opinions on whether such a move would be justified.
Among them, JAN3 CEO Samson Mow argued that Strategy would have the right to sell part of its holdings if necessary to meet obligations to investors.
Analysts Say Any Sale Would Likely Be Strategic
Agne Linge, Advisor to the Board at Wefi, told CryptoPotato that any potential Bitcoin sale by Strategy would likely represent a carefully planned corporate decision rather than an emergency move.
According to Linge, selling a portion of Bitcoin reserves could be viewed as an alternative to issuing additional company shares to finance dividend payments.
He also noted that the Bitcoin market has matured significantly due to the increasing presence of institutional investors and experienced long term traders.
Linge added that most market participants now understand that Michael Saylor is managing Bitcoin holdings as part of a broader corporate strategy rather than a purely ideological commitment.#crypto#cryptonews https://coinsignals.net https://t.me/coinsignalpublic
