Here are the details of the latest news regarding the Bitcoin buying spree by MicroStrategy (now often referred to simply as Strategy) in March 2026:
Largest Purchase Report (March 2026)
Based on information disclosure data (Form 8-K) and market reports as of mid-March 2026, MicroStrategy under the leadership of Michael Saylor conducted massive buying actions:
Purchase Amount: MicroStrategy added 17,994 BTC to their treasury.
Investment Value: The total funds expended reached approximately US$1.28 billion (around Rp20 trillion to Rp21 trillion).
Average Price: This purchase was made at an average price of about US$70,946 per BTC.
Action Time: This large purchase occurred during the period from March 2 to March 8, 2026.
Current Ownership Status
With this addition, MicroStrategy's position as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in the world is becoming increasingly unassailable:
Total Reserves: As of March 10, 2026, MicroStrategy holds a total of 738,731 BTC.
World Supply Percentage: This ownership represents about 3.4% to 3.5% of the total maximum supply of Bitcoin (21 million coins) that will ever exist.
Total Acquisition Cost: The company has invested a total of approximately US$56 billion at an overall average price of about US$75,800 per coin.
Funding Strategy: "STRC" Shares
One interesting point from this 2026 news is how they are raising funds. In addition to selling common shares, MicroStrategy is very active in using a new instrument called STRC (Variable Rate Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock).
This instrument allows investors to receive dividends (around 11.5% per year), while MicroStrategy uses the incoming capital to continue purchasing Bitcoin.
This strategy is referred to by some analysts as the "unstoppable accumulation machine" because they have managed to connect the traditional capital market directly to Bitcoin purchases.
Market Response
Although this is a record purchase in 2026, the stock price of MicroStrategy (MSTR) only reacted slightly (up about 0.2% - 3%) shortly after the announcement. Analysts argue that the market is starting to get used to Michael Saylor's aggressive accumulation strategy, so large purchase news is no longer surprising to the market as it was in previous years.
News Conclusion: MicroStrategy remains fully committed to making Bitcoin its primary reserve asset and continues to leverage innovative financial instruments (such as STRC preferred shares) to fund their Bitcoin "stash" in 2026.
