Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor signaled an impending Bitcoin 

BTC$110,291purchase, and, if completed, the transaction will mark the company’s third BTC acquisition in August.

The company’s  most recent Bitcoin buy  occurred on August 18, when Strategy purchased 430 BTC for $51.4 million, bringing its total holdings to 629,376 BTC, valued at over $72 billion at the time of this writing.

Data  from SaylorTracker shows Strategy is up over 56% on its BTC investment, representing over $25.8 billion in unrealized gains at current prices.

The company’s BTC acquisitions in August have been relatively slim. Strategy typically acquires thousands or tens of thousands of BTC in every purchase, yet it has only acquired 585 BTC so far, in two separate transactions, this month.

Strategy leads the charge in corporate BTC acquisition and is the largest BTC treasury company by a wide margin. Saylor continues to advocate for Bitcoin by orange-pilling individual investors and financial institutions,  sparking a movement in corporate finance .

Strategy is not directly impacting Bitcoin market prices with its acquisition plan

Shirish Jajodia, the company’s corporate treasurer, recently  told  podcaster Natalie Brunell that  Strategy does not move the BTC market  with its purchases.

The company acquires BTC through  over-the-counter transactions , private agreements between parties that occur outside of spot exchanges, and other methods that do not impact market price.

Institutional investors  hold BTC long-term , which raises the floor price of Bitcoin over time. However, other factors, like price speculation and traders, have a more immediate impact on the short-term market price of BTC, Jajodia said.

“Bitcoin’s trading volume is over $50 billion in any 24 hours — that’s huge volume. So, if you are buying $1 billion over a couple of days, it’s not actually moving the market that much,” he added.

Strategy continues to accumulate BTC for its corporate treasury, even amid sinking share prices, which have impacted most Bitcoin treasury companies in the second half of 2025.The company’s stock  sank to its lowest point  in nearly four months on Wednesday, hitting a low of about $325 per share, levels not seen since April. However, the price rebounded to around $358 per share on Friday.
