<p>Strategy <a href="https://www.strategy.com/purchases" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">sold</a> 3,588 Bitcoin between June 29 and July 5, raising about $216 million to fund dividends tied to its Digital Credit securities, according to Michael Saylor and company filings. The transactions reduced the company's Bitcoin holdings to 843,775 BTC, marking its first major Bitcoin sale after an earlier symbolic disposal of 32 BTC.</p>

<p>According to Strategy, the company completed two separate Bitcoin sales during the reporting period. It sold 1,363 BTC between June 29 and June 30 for about $80.8 million. It later sold another 2,225 BTC between July 1 and July 5 for approximately $135.2 million.</p>
<p><a href="https://cryptofrontnews.com/michael-saylor-says-bitcoin-will-change-by-changing-less/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Michael Saylor</a> confirmed the proceeds funded dividend payments for STRF, STRE, STRK, and STRD. The company also used the funds to pay June's monthly STRC dividend. Meanwhile, Strategy reported that it made no Bitcoin purchases during the same period.</p>
<p>According to the filing, Strategy also refrained from selling shares through its at-the-market program. In addition, it did not repurchase any shares under its existing buyback programs.</p>

<p>That framework allows Strategy to issue shares or sell <a href="https://cryptofrontnews.com/bitcoin-trap-nears-analyst-warns-of-ma200-retest-before-key-fed-events/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> whenever needed to maintain sufficient cash for dividend obligations. Earlier reports had indicated concerns after the company's cash reserves declined during May.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-quarterly-filing-details-bitcoin-losses-strong"><strong>Quarterly Filing Details Bitcoin Losses</strong></h2>
<p>Strategy also disclosed an $8.32 billion loss on its Bitcoin holdings for the quarter ended June 30. The figure included an $8.31 billion unrealized loss and a realized loss of about $900 million.</p>
<p>The filing stated that the carrying value of its Bitcoin holdings stood at $49.67 billion as of June 30. However, the assets' cost basis exceeded their fair value, requiring a valuation allowance against related deferred tax assets.</p>
