Strategy added 250 bitcoin to its balance sheet for roughly $21.5 million, according to a Monday, October 12, 2026 disclosure. The purchase brings the company's total bitcoin treasury to 848,250 BTC. The buy followed a Sunday teaser from executive chairman Michael Saylor hinting at more acquisitions.
The same disclosure noted Strategy repurchased $192.4 million of its STRC preferred stock. Details on the company's combined U.S. dollar reserves and cash holdings were not fully provided in the filing.
Saylor's Sunday nudge
Saylor has made a habit of signaling purchases before the official announcement, and Sunday was no exception. The teaser gave the market a familiar heads-up, and Monday's numbers confirmed the follow-through with 250 BTC added. It's a smaller clip than some of the company's larger buys, but it keeps the accumulation streak alive.
The STRC buyback
Alongside the bitcoin purchase, Strategy repurchased $192.4 million of its STRC preferred stock. STRC is one of the company's preferred equity instruments, and the buyback reduces the outstanding float. The move pairs a bitcoin buy with a capital-structure adjustment — a two-part maneuver that's become part of Strategy's playbook.
A treasury past 848,000 BTC
Strategy's bitcoin stack now sits at 848,250 BTC. That total has been built over years of purchases, and the company remains the largest corporate holder of the asset. Each new buy, even a modest one like this, nudges the number higher and keeps the treasury story in the headlines.
What's still unclear
The disclosure left the company's combined U.S. dollar reserves and cash holdings unspecified. That number matters because it tells you how much dry powder Strategy has for future purchases or for servicing obligations tied to its preferred stock. For now, watchers will have to wait for a fuller breakdown, likely in the next quarterly filing or a subsequent disclosure.
Strategy's next move on the bitcoin front will depend on market conditions and the company's cash position, neither of which was fully detailed in Monday's filing. The STRC buyback is done; the bitcoin treasury stands at 848,250.
