MicroStrategy has resumed its ambitious Bitcoin acquisition strategy, making headlines with a new $330 million purchase. This comes after a short pause in the company’s BTC buying streak, which drew considerable attention throughout the crypto market.
Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy’s executive chairman, confirmed that the company purchased 4,871 BTC at a cost of roughly $329.9 million. The latest round of buying was made at an average price of $67,718 per Bitcoin. The announcement reinforces the firm’s Bitcoin-focused approach.
As of April 5, 2026, MicroStrategy reported holding a commanding 766,970 BTC, accumulated at a total cost of about $58.02 billion. This enormous stack translates to an average price of $75,644 per Bitcoin across all purchases. These numbers continue to set the company apart as a leading corporate holder of BTC.
The new acquisition came on the heels of a short hiatus in the firm’s buying activity. Public filings indicated that MicroStrategy abstained from purchasing any Bitcoin between March 23 and March 29. The previous filing showed reserves of approximately 762,099 BTC, with an average cost basis of $75,694 per coin.
During this same period, the company also paused its at-the-market (ATM) share issuance program. It marked a pullback after 13 consecutive weeks of consistent accumulation since December 2025.
Market participants responded quickly to news of resumed acquisitions, with the MSTR stock price surging. The MicroStrategy share price jumped by 4.23% in intraday trading on Monday, April 6, reaching $124.90.

Notably, positive sentiment began building even before the formal disclosure. Over the weekend, Michael Saylor teased the return to action with a chart posted on X. The chart included ‘Orange Dot’ markers highlighting prior purchase dates, along with the phrase “back to work.” It acted as a clear message that the company remained committed to its acquisition strategy.
To finance its ongoing accumulation, MicroStrategy has increasingly turned to structured capital-raising mechanisms. Recent initiatives have included preferred equity tools like STRK and STRC, used to generate liquidity for additional Bitcoin purchases.
Looking ahead, MicroStrategy appears poised to execute even larger moves. The firm has prepared a $42 billion ATM facility with plans to deploy this capital toward future Bitcoin acquisitions once the program goes live.
Amid positive Bitcoin acquisition news, BTC price continued to gain. Analyst Ted Pillows laid out two main scenarios for BTC price as it approaches the critical $69,000–$70,000 resistance zone. According to the chart shared by Pillows, if Bitcoin manages to reclaim this zone, there’s potential for a push toward the $72,000–$74,000 range.

The first scenario shows Bitcoin breaking out, consolidating, and then climbing steadily. BTC could eventually aim for $120,000 and above, especially if liquidity improves and a Fed rate cut event comes into play.
The second scenario envisions Bitcoin price getting rejected at resistance, dropping sharply below $66,000. It could even enter a deeper correction before finding support in a strong demand zone and starting to recover. In both scenarios, the long-term trend still points upward.
