This rather impressive weekly purchase, significantly larger than the <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/strive-loads-up-on-another-1100-bitcoin-as-total-holdings-approach-27500/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">one from the previous week</a>, is actually the third-largest in the company’s history according to on-chain data.
The single biggest was actually not a direct buy, but came from the merger with Semler Scientific, in which 5,816-5,817 BTC (worth $675 million) were involved. Then came the 2026 record of 2,500 BTC, accumulated for $185.2 million in late May and early June.
Thus, the company has ramped up its accumulation spree at times when the largest corporate holder of bitcoin has slowed down. Although Strategy has <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/3-in-a-row-strategy-ramps-up-bitcoin-purchases-as-holdings-hit-848000-btc/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">extended</a> its consecutive weekly purchase streak to three now, its actual buy was a lot lower than Strive’s at just 334 BTC.
