Strategy said on April 27 that it bought 3,273 bitcoin for about $255 million, bringing its holdings to 818,334 BTC. (sec.gov) The company, formerly called MicroStrategy, said the purchases were made between April 20 and April 26, 2026. It put the average purchase price at about $77,906 per bitcoin, including fees and expenses. (sec.gov) Strategy said its aggregate bitcoin purchases now total about $61.81 billion at an average cost of roughly $75,537 per coin. The filing also said its “BTC Yield” for 2026 stood at 9.6% year to date as of April 26. (sec.gov) Bitcoin is a digital asset with a fixed maximum supply of 21 million coins, so large treasury buyers reduce the amount available in public markets. At 818,334 BTC, Strategy holds just under 4% of that hard cap. (sec.gov) Strategy funded the latest purchase with proceeds from its at-the-market stock sale programs. The April 27 filing said the company raised about $255.5 million in net proceeds from selling MSTR shares and did not sell any STRK, STRF or STRD preferred stock during the week. (sec.gov) Michael Saylor has turned the company into the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, using repeated equity and preferred-stock issuance to buy more coins. CoinDesk reported the latest purchase pushed Strategy closer to Saylor’s stated goal of holding 1 million BTC. (coindesk.com) The market backdrop is more leveraged than cash-driven. CoinDesk reported in March that bitcoin futures volume on Binance had climbed to more than five times spot volume, a sign that price action was increasingly being driven by derivatives rather than outright buying and selling of coins. (coindesk.com) A separate CoinDesk report on April 27 said bitcoin’s rally was occurring on thin trading volume, with 10x Research’s Markus Thielen warning that the move could be vulnerable to a macro shock. That leaves Strategy’s steady spot accumulation colliding with a market structure shaped by exchange-traded funds, futures and leveraged positioning. (coindesk.com)
