Michael Saylor, through his company Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), announced a $2.46 billion Bitcoin<\/a> purchase last week, the third largest in five years. According to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), between July 28 and August 3, the company acquired 21,021 tokens, increasing its total Bitcoin holdings to 628,791. <\/p>\n

At current prices, the value of these holdings exceeds $71 billion. The average purchase price was $117,526 per token, close to the previous highest price of $118,940.<\/p>\n

Strategy financed these acquisitions through common and preferred stock offerings, as well as debt. The company reported an unrealized gain of $14 billion in Q2, driven by Bitcoin’s price increase and an accounting change. Strategy remains the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, and its stock has risen over 3,000% since its first purchase, outperforming Bitcoin and major indexes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
