The Grapes of Bitcoin

  • Strategy, the modern-day prospector, has piled its Bitcoin mountain to 673,783 BTC, adding 1,283 shiny nuggets in January. 🪙
  • Meanwhile, they’ve stashed $2.25 billion in USD, just in case the fiat world doesn’t collapse tomorrow. 💼
  • Funded by selling stock like a farmer selling his mule, their Bitcoin hoard now sits at a cool $50.5 billion. 🚀

In a move that would make even the Joads proud, Strategy Inc., the Bitcoin barnacle, has announced it’s clinging tighter to its digital gold. With 673,783 BTC in its vault and $2.25 billion in cash, they’re prepared for both the dust bowl and the digital frontier. Between January 1 and 4, they scooped up 1,283 more bitcoins, because why not?

The cash for this spree? Oh, just $116 million from selling Class A stock like it’s yesterday’s newspaper. All part of their grand plan to be the biggest Bitcoin hoarder in the land. 🏆

Strategy has acquired 1,287 BTC to increase its BTC Reserve to ₿673,783 and has increased its USD Reserve by $62 million to $2.25 billion. $MSTR

The Winter of Discontent: Q4 2025

According to their SEC filing, those 1,283 BTC cost an average of $90,391 each. But who’s counting? Certainly not Strategy, as they reported a $5.40 billion unrealized loss on their digital assets, with a $1.55 billion tax cushion to soften the blow. December alone was a rollercoaster, accounting for $17.44 billion of those losses. Still, their digital treasure chest ended the year at $58.85 billion, with a $2.42 billion tax liability lurking in the shadows. 🎢

Bitcoin: The Wild Stallion

As of now, Bitcoin’s galloping at $93,160.99, up 2.08% in the last 24 hours. Its market cap? A whopping $1.86 trillion, with $36.07 billion traded in a day. Only 19.97 million BTC are out in the wild, with 1.03 million left to tame. 🐎

The Never-Ending Stock Sale

Strategy’s been on a buying binge since late 2025, like a kid in a candy store with a bottomless wallet. In mid-December, they dropped $980 million on 671,000 BTC. By year’s end, their stash hit 672,497 BTC. And how did they pay for it? By selling nearly 2 million shares of MSTR stock between December 29 and January 4, raking in hundreds of millions. 💸

They also beefed up their USD reserve by $748 million in late December, hitting $2.19 billion. Their financial structure? A delicate dance between Bitcoin’s whims and a pile of preferred stock and debt. 💃

Despite unrealized losses that would make a lesser company weep, Strategy’s doubling down on its Bitcoin bet. They’re still the biggest corporate Bitcoin holder, and they’re not letting go-not even if the digital sky falls. 🌪️
