Strategy Pauses Bitcoin Buys as It Sells $544.5M Stock to Boost Cash Reserves
Strategy, the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, has paused its Bitcoin purchases for five consecutive weeks. This move comes as the company sold $544.5 million worth of its stock last week to boost its cash reserves.
The sale increased Strategy's cash reserve to $3.75 billion, and it now holds 843,775 BTC, which were purchased at an average price of $75,476.
This decision reflects a shift towards strengthening the company's balance sheet as Bitcoin trading below its average purchase price has impacted its preferred stock value.
