Strategy Leverages STRK ATM to Acquire 130 More Bitcoin

Strategy (MSTR) marginally added to its massive bitcoin (BTC) holdings, selling a modest amount of its preferred stock (STRK) to fund the acquisition.

The company last week purchased 130 bitcoin for roughly $10.7 million, or an average price of $82,981 each, according to a Monday morning filing. The so-called “BTC yield” is 6.9% year-to-date, according to Strategy.

Company holdings are now 499,226 bitcoin acquired for a total of $33.1 billion, or an average cost of $66,360 per token.

This latest purchase was funded by the sale of 123,000 shares of STRK, which generated about $10.7 million of net proceeds. Strategy last week announced a mammoth $21 billion at-the-market offering of that preferred stock.
