The acquisition was funded through the company’s at-the-market (ATM) stock offerings, which raised $1.44 billion through the sale of common and preferred shares. Specifically, Strategy reported selling 4,020,000 shares of common stock and 435,069 shares of its 8.00% Series A perpetual strike preferred stock during this period.

Following this substantial purchase, Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings have grown to 553,555 BTC, worth more than $52 billion at current market prices. The company now holds approximately 2.64% of Bitcoin’s maximum supply of 21 million coins, with an average purchase price of $68,459 per Bitcoin.

Michael Saylor, Strategy’s co-founder, announced on social media that the company has achieved a Bitcoin yield of 13.7% year-to-date. “As of April 27, we hold 553,555 BTC acquired for approximately $37.90 billion at $68,459 per Bitcoin,” Saylor stated. The company expects to reach a Bitcoin yield target of 15% in 2025.

This latest acquisition comes as Bitcoin’s price has shown remarkable strength, trading above $95,000 and up 1.59% over the past 24 hours. The cryptocurrency has benefited from several positive catalysts, including strong institutional inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs, improving macroeconomic conditions, President Trump’s signals on reducing Chinese import tariffs, and new SEC Chairman Paul Atkins’ pro-crypto stance.

According to the company’s filing, Strategy has nearly exhausted its $21 billion common stock ATM program launched in October 2024, with only $128.7 million remaining available for issuance. However, the STRK preferred share program, established in March 2025, still has $20.92 billion available for future acquisitions.

Strategy’s aggressive accumulation strategy has coincided with the growing mainstream adoption of Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset. The company’s continued Bitcoin purchases reflect growing institutional confidence in the asset class, with Strategy maintaining its position as the largest public holder of Bitcoin.

As Bitcoin continues to demonstrate resilience at these historically high price levels, Strategy’s bold investment approach appears to be yielding positive results for the company, whose shares have reportedly surged approximately 23% year-to-date.
