Strategy reported the purchase of additional Bitcoin during the first week of February, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

In a Form 8-K dated February 9th, 2026, the company disclosed that it acquired 1,142 Bitcoin between February 2nd and February 8th for a total purchase price of $90 million. 

The Bitcoin was acquired at an average price of $78,815 per coin, inclusive of fees and expenses. 

The purchases were funded using net proceeds from the sale of Class A common stock under the company’s at-the-market (ATM) offering program.

Following the transaction, Strategy’s aggregate Bitcoin holdings increased to 714,644 Bitcoin. 

The company reported cumulative Bitcoin purchases of approximately $54.35 billion, with an average acquisition price of $76,056 per Bitcoin.

The purchases occurred during a period when Bitcoin traded below Strategy’s reported average acquisition price for much of the week and briefly declined to around $60,000 on Coinbase. 

This represents the second instance in the current cycle in which Strategy has added Bitcoin while market prices were below its overall cost basis.

Strategy has experienced similar conditions in prior market cycles. 

In 2022, when Bitcoin prices fell below $30,000 while the company’s average purchase price remained higher, Strategy reduced the pace of its acquisitions but continued to make periodic purchases.

Ahead of the filing, some market participants discussed whether the company would continue acquiring Bitcoin below its average cost. 

Commentary on social media included speculative and humorous remarks, including one post stating, “Saylor on Monday: We’ve added another 1,000 bitcoins at an average price of $95,000.”

Shares of Strategy (MSTR) moved in line with broader Bitcoin price fluctuations during the same period. 

The stock declined to approximately $107 last Thursday before rebounding alongside Bitcoin, rising about 26% to close near $135 by the end of the week.
