Strategy said Monday it bought another 3,273 bitcoin for about $255 million, pushing its total stash to 818,334 bitcoin. (strategy.com) The company’s purchase price averaged about $77,906 per coin, according to its bitcoin holdings dashboard. Its reported aggregate cost basis now stands at about $61.8 billion, or roughly $75,537 per bitcoin. (strategy.com) The filing date on Strategy’s latest current report is April 27, 2026, and the company’s investor relations page lists a string of bitcoin-related 8-K disclosures through April. (sec.gov) (strategy.com) The new buy is much smaller than the one Strategy disclosed on April 20, when it said it had acquired 34,164 bitcoin for about $2.542 billion. That earlier purchase took its holdings to 815,061 bitcoin. (strategy.com) (bitcoinmagazine.com) Strategy has turned bitcoin accumulation into a standing corporate finance strategy, funding purchases through common stock and preferred stock issuance programs detailed in recent filings. (sec.gov) (strategy.com) The company’s dashboard shows a year-to-date bitcoin yield of 9.6% as of April 27, up from 9.5% a week earlier. Strategy also lists a bitcoin reserve value above $63.5 billion on the same page. (strategy.com) Michael Saylor, Strategy’s executive chairman, has spent years arguing that bitcoin should sit on corporate balance sheets like a reserve asset. Monday’s update shows the company is still buying even after a multibillion-dollar purchase the previous week. (strategy.com 1) (strategy.com 2) For investors, the immediate takeaway is simple: Strategy is still using public-market financing to add bitcoin, one disclosure at a time. The company’s balance sheet is becoming even more tied to bitcoin’s price swings. (sec.gov) (strategy.com)
