Strategy Adds 1,287 BTC, Pushing Total Holdings to 673,783 as Bitcoin Rises

• Saylor’s Strategy increased its BTC holdings to 673,783 BTC while also increasing U.S. dollar reserves to $$2.25 billion.
• Both expansion moves come amid rising Bitcoin prices, signaling continued confidence.

Michael Saylor’s Strategy, a Bitcoin Treasury Company, is continuously expanding its bitcoin holdings. As per the filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday,  the company added 1,287 BTC to its holdings.

​The acquisitions were made between December 29 and January 4 and totaled around $116 million. In the same period, the company also lifted its USD Cash reserves by adding $62 million; now its total U.S. dollar reserve stands at  $2.25 billion.

​With the new purchase, total bitcoin holdings amounted to 673,783 BTC, purchased for $50. 55 billion or an average price of  $75,0266 each, which was worth around $62.8 billion, based on current prices, placing it among the world’s largest corporate treasuries.

​The stash represents more than 3% of Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million tokens and implies unrealised gains of approximately $12.4 billion based on prevailing market prices. The increase in both cash and BTC reserves was funded by the sales of common stock.

MSTR Faces Steep Decline as MSCI Scrutiny Adds Pressure

Despite the expansion of its Bitcoin holdings and cash reserves, Strategy continues to face market pressure. Where the Strategy’s stock (MSTR) has experienced a strong slump of 56% in the year 2025, as per Google Finance data. This loss is largely due to the company’s Bitcoin holdings amid weaker prices.

In addition, MSCI’s public consultation on excluding the companies like Strategy, from its indices is ongoing, which has also received formal criticism by Strategy CEO Phong Le and co-founder Michael Saylor through a public letter last month, stating its implications. With that, MSCI is anticipated to make a decision  in mid-January on whether such companies will continue to be included in its indexes.

Even so, MSTR is climbing, which was trading around $164.72, up about 4.81%, while Bitcoin rose roughly 0.83% over 24 hours and 6.27% over the past week,  trading near $93,332 at the time of writing.
