Strategy May Have Temporarily Halted Bitcoin Buying Last Week

Strategy (MSTR), the largest publicly traded corporate holder of bitcoin BTC$91,349.64, appeared to pause its accumulation last week.

Executive Chairman Michael Saylor — who normally posts a Sunday teaser on X followed by a detailed purchase update early Monday morning — issued no such announcements this week.

The break snaps a six-week streak of consistent weekly buys that began on Oct. 6.

According to the company’s dashboard, the Tysons Corner, Virginia-based firm currently holds 649,870 BTC at an average acquisition price of $74,433 per coin.

The pause comes as MSTR trades nearly 70% below its all-time high, with its multiple to net asset value (mNAV) hovering just above 1 — the lowest point of the current cycle.

The company is also facing speculation about a possible exclusion from major equity indexes, a prospect that drew a forceful response from Saylor last week.

MSTR shares were up 1.5% early Monday, tracking a modest weekend rebound in bitcoin to roughly $86,200.
