Strategy paused Bitcoin transactions between Aug. 17–23, keeping its holdings at 840,447 $BTC acquired for $63.36 billion at an average cost of $75,385. Instead of buying more Bitcoin, the company raised $2.01 billion through MSTR share sales and strengthened its balance sheet.
Funds were allocated to increase its restricted reserve to $5.1 billion, repurchase STRC shares, and establish a flexible $1.59 billion cash pool. Combined, Strategy now controls roughly $6.7 billion in liquidity, though only part is available for future BTC purchases.
Importantly, Bitcoin surged about 25% last week without Strategy buying, proving market demand remains strong. With ample cash reserves and renewed profitability, Strategy retains significant flexibility to resume Bitcoin accumulation when conditions become favorable.
