  • Strategy (MSTR) Nears Second-Highest Bitcoin Buy Quarter Amid Price Drop
    March 21, 2026, 4:26 PM EDT. Strategy (MSTR), the world's largest corporate bitcoin holder, is set for its second-biggest quarterly BTC accumulation despite a 20% price drop. Since January, it purchased 89,618 BTC, totaling 761,068 BTC, with two Mondays left for more buys. The record was in Q4 2024 with 194,180 BTC amid a price surge to $100,000. Bitcoin has since slumped over 40% from its $126,000 peak. Strategy's stock fell 15%. Recent bitcoin buys partly funded by sales of its Stretch (STRC) preferred shares, but STRC's price drop below $100 halted this source temporarily. The company's bitcoin buying hinges more on capital availability than price moves.
