As 2026 begins, Bitcoin investment giant Strategy (NYSE: MSTR) once again demonstrates its determination to hoard coins. According to an 8-K filing submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday, Strategy spent approximately $116 million last week to buy more Bitcoin.
This global publicly traded company with the largest Bitcoin holdings increased its holdings by 1,287 BTC between December 29 last year and January 4 this year, at an average price of $90,391 per Bitcoin.

With this recent addition at the start of the year, Strategy currently holds a total of 673,783 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $63 billion. Since initiating Bitcoin holdings in 2020, Strategy has invested a total of about $50.6 billion, with an average purchase price of $75,026 per Bitcoin.
Considering Bitcoin’s fixed supply cap of 21 million coins, Strategy’s holdings account for over 3% of the total network supply. So far, Strategy’s unrealized gains (paper profits) amount to about $12.4 billion.
In addition to continuously increasing Bitcoin holdings, Strategy is also strengthening its cash position. The company’s USD reserves increased by $62 million last week, reaching a total of $2.25 billion.
Strategy stated that this capital is to ensure the company can smoothly pay preferred stock dividends and cover existing debt interest payments.
In response, TD Securities analysts pointed out that Strategy has recently been actively “hoarding cash,” significantly enhancing the company’s financial resilience and liquidity. Even if faced with a “long-term crypto winter,” the company will have enough financial flexibility to continue operations.
