The company now controls over 3% of Bitcoin's 21 million total supply, purchased at an average $74,079 per coin for approximately $47.5 billion, including fees. Current holdings represent roughly $20.5 billion in paper gains with Bitcoin trading at $105,321 Monday, up 1.5% over 24 hours.
Kynikos Associates closed its short position against Strategy's MSTR shares Friday, suggesting growing bullish sentiment toward Bitcoin treasury strategies among some investors. The timing coincides with Strategy's accelerated accumulation compared to late October when it purchased 390 Bitcoin for $43 million.
Strategy's preferred stock programs include $21 billion for STRK, $4.2 billion each for STRC and STRD, and $2.1 billion for STRF. These at-the-market offerings supplement the firm's 42/42 plan targeting $84 billion in capital raises through equity and convertible notes for Bitcoin acquisitions through 2027.
The plan was upsized from an initial $42 billion target after depleting the equity side. Strategy also announced plans to raise $715 million via new euro-denominated perpetual Stream preferred stock, expanding its cryptocurrency acquisition funding mechanisms across multiple currencies and instruments.
