Strategy Latest 8-K reveals an intriguing signal: last week (7/6–7/12), the company **did not add a single BTC**; its holdings remained at 843,775 BTC, with an average price of about $75,476 and a total cost of $6.369 billion.
But “stopping” doesn’t mean “shutting down.” During the same period, it sold 4.8188 million shares of MSTR via its ATM program, raising net proceeds of $466.7 million, and it also did not repurchase shares. The result: its cash reserve in USD surged to $3.0 billion, growing by about $450 million over one week.
My takeaways are:
First, the pace is shifting. The narrative of continuous buying hit its first clear gap—more like stockpiling ammunition than adding leverage. It may be waiting for a better price or a more favorable financing window.
Second, the ATM remains the main engine. As long as the premium is still sufficient, equity financing won’t stop. This is a key observation point for whether MSTR’s premium relative to its
$BTC net asset value can be sustained.
Third, the $3.0 billion cash cushion provides buffer for convertible bond interest and potential pullbacks. In the near term, the default narrative doesn’t really hold water.
Next, we should focus on two things: whether the premium rate is converging, and whether the next 8-K will restart buying. If the price drops while the ATM keeps moving forward, that’s when you truly get “buy-the-dip ammunition.”
