Everyone thinks Strategy only wins when it keeps buying $BTC, but actually last week proved that assumption can be a costly trap.
A lot of traders FOMO into headlines like “institutional buying is back,” then panic when the flow slows down. The risk is mistaking a company’s buying activity for the entire market’s strength.
Here are 3 things worth watching closely: 1) $BTC climbed roughly 25% last week without Strategy buying a single coin, which means the move was not just one big buyer pushing the market. Think of it like a car still accelerating after the driver lifts off the gas. That tells you momentum may be broader than it looked.
2) Strategy’s 840K+ $BTC position is now back in unrealized profit, which changes the pressure around the balance sheet. Bernstein also noted the company’s strengthened reserves now cover around 2.8 years of dividends. That matters because it reduces the “forced move” risk many traders were worried about earlier in the summer.
3) The next mistake would be assuming buys restart automatically. Bernstein expects $BTC purchases could resume if $STRC recovers toward par, but that’s a condition, not a guarantee. For $MSTR watchers, the cleaner setup is real, but the timing still depends on market structure and funding conditions.
Are traders underestimating how different this setup is now?
