MicroStrategy Resumes Bitcoin Purchases After a 10-Week Hiatus

MicroStrategy has resumed its Bitcoin accumulation strategy after a 10-week pause, purchasing 4,603 BTC for approximately $369.7 million at an average price of $80,318 per coin. This marks the company's first major acquisition since late June and follows speculation triggered by CEO Michael Saylor’s recent social media post hinting at renewed buying activity. The purchase signals a shift from MicroStrategy's earlier capital preservation strategy during July and August when it focused on building cash reserves, supporting preferred securities, and halting regular Bitcoin buys. The move reaffirms the company's commitment to holding Bitcoin as its primary reserve asset despite higher prices relative to historical averages. As one of the largest corporate holders of Bitcoin, MicroStrategy’s actions are closely watched by investors for signals about institutional confidence in crypto markets.
