CFO Andrew Kang said the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/strategy-bitcoin-cost-basis-price-hovers-around-78k\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">company ended 2025<\/a> with 713,502 Bitcoin\u2014about 3.4% of all Bitcoin that will ever exist\u2014after buying an additional 32,470 BTC in Q4 for roughly $3.1 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Kang added that Strategy raised more than $25 billion of total capital during 2025 and established a $2.25 billion cash reserve designed to cover roughly 2.5 years of interest and dividend obligations.<\/p>\n<h2>Strategy Will Initiate A Bitcoin Security Program<\/h2>\n<p>Saylor addressed quantum computing directly at the end of the call, calling it the latest in a long sequence of recurring existential narratives around Bitcoin. His message was twofold: treat the risk seriously, but resist a \u201cstampede\u201d into premature changes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe concern today is quantum computers and many people ask if <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-quantum-panic-nic-carter-matt-corallo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">quantum computers represent a threat<\/a> to Bitcoin,\u201d Saylor said, before arguing the debate fits a familiar pattern. \u201cWhat I would say is whenever dealing with each of these concerns we have to take them seriously\u2026 but we have to remember two things. One\u2026 \u2018Don\u2019t panic.\u2019\u2026 The second observation, the hypocratic oath, does no harm\u2026 You don\u2019t want an iatrogenic intervention where the cure is worse than the disease.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his view, the timing matters as much as the engineering. \u201cOur position on quantum computing\u2026 we think it\u2019s probably <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-quantum-doomsday-fears-are-overblown-a16z\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">10 or more years away<\/a> before there\u2019s a threat. That is the consensus,\u201d he said. Saylor added that quantum-resistant work is happening broadly across industries that rely on conventional cryptography, and that Bitcoin-specific R&amp;D is already underway, but emphasized that there is not yet \u201cglobal consensus that existing cryptographic libraries are at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That lack of consensus, he argued, is precisely why Strategy won\u2019t advocate a specific quantum roadmap today. \u201cTo stampede into a hypothetical fix before there is consensus would introduce new attack surfaces and new complexity and new failure modes that don\u2019t currently exist,\u201d Saylor said.<\/p>\n<p>Pressed by Fundstrat\u2019s Tom Lee on how Bitcoin might handle quantum-vulnerable wallet types, Saylor reiterated that Strategy would not try to steer the technical outcome. \u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s appropriate for us to advocate a particular solution or a particular approach nor a particular time frame,\u201d he said. \u201cOur role is to support all of the various communities and facilitate the evolution of consensus about what should be done, how it should be done, when it should be done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The most concrete announcement was a commitment to formalize that support into an organized effort. \u201cStrategy is going to initiate a Bitcoin security program that coordinates with the global cyber security community, the global crypto security community and the global Bitcoin security committee\u2026 to contribute to consensus and solutions to address the quantum computing threat as well as any other emergent security threats that evolve,\u201d Saylor said.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">JUST IN: MICHAEL SAYLOR JUST ANNOUNCED STRATEGY WILL LAUNCH A GLOBAL EFFORT TO UPGRADE <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BITCOIN?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">#BITCOIN<\/a> FOR QUANTUM<\/p>\n<p>LEGENDARY <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/72x72\/1f525.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udd25\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TPoWMb9rj1\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/TPoWMb9rj1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Bitcoin Historian (@pete_rizzo_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pete_rizzo_\/status\/2019549586293916096?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">February 5, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He framed the initiative as a responsibility commensurate with Strategy\u2019s scale as a holder, but also as a coordination problem: the goal is to engage \u201cvery brilliant minds,\u201d align with the work already being done, and help solutions emerge \u201cat the right time in a responsible fashion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At press time, BTC traded at $65,183.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-662247\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?resize=1024%2C499\" alt=\"Bitcoin price chart\" width=\"1024\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=3628 3628w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=130 130w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=1140 1140w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/BTCUSDT_2026-02-06_07-52-18.png?w=3000 3000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Strategy used its Q4 2025 earnings call to spotlight what Michael Saylor framed as the next long-horizon security agenda for Bitcoin: coordinating a global \u201cBitcoin security program\u201d aimed at quantum readiness, while warning against rushed protocol changes that could create more risk than they remove.
