This buy, which cost the firm a total of $39.8 million, involved 592 tokens. In terms of scale, the acquisition isn\u2019t anything impressive by Strategy\u2019s standards, but it does mark an important milestone: it\u2019s the 100th purchase completed by the firm.<\/p>\n<p>Strategy first started accumulating Bitcoin back in 2020 and in that time, the company has made only one sale. The sale in question occurred back in December 2022, when BTC was trading at the lows of last cycle\u2019s<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/crypto-deepest-capital-outflows-2022-bear-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> bear market<\/a>. Besides this, the firm has shown strong conviction toward the cryptocurrency, with purchases only becoming more regular as time has gone on.<\/p>\n<p>Following the 100th buy by Strategy, its total holdings have grown to 717,722 BTC, equivalent to nearly 3.6% of the entire BTC supply in circulation. The company spent a total of $54.56 billion on this stack, but today, it is only worth $46.48 billion, meaning that the firm is in a loss of nearly 15%.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of loss, Strategy has a reputation of buying at or near local tops in the asset. The same appears to have been the case this time as well, with the cryptocurrency currently down almost 4% from the new purchase\u2019s cost basis of $67,286 per token.<\/p>\n<p>According to the filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Strategy made the latest acquisition between February 17th and 22nd, and funded it using sales from the firm\u2019s MSTR at-the-market (ATM) stock offering program.<\/p>\n<p>With each new purchase, Strategy is only solidifying its status as the number one Bitcoin treasury company in the world, as the table from <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcointreasuries.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">BitcoinTreasuries.net<\/a> shows.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-666182 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/table_2aa5e5.png?w=509&amp;resize=509%2C271\" alt=\"Bitcoin Strategy\" width=\"509\" height=\"271\"><\/p>\n<p>Strategy is also not only the largest holder of BTC, it\u2019s the largest public digital asset treasury company in general.
