Michael Saylor adds 13,927 BTC – Strategy’s treasury now has 780,897 Bitcoin

How did $1 billion of Bitcoin flip MSTR stock from bearish to bullish in just 24 hours?

Michael Saylor's Strategy makes its 106th Bitcoin purchase - Adds 13,927 BTC to its treasury

Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin [BTC] treasury company, Strategy, has added new Bitcoin to its treasury. On the 13th of April, Strategy acquired 13,927 BTC for $1.00 billion at an average cost of $71,902 per Bitcoin.

With its 106th Bitcoin purchase, Strategy achieved a ‘BTC Yield’ of 5.6% year-to-date in 2026. 

For context, ‘BTC Yield’ means whether Saylor’s firm is holding a larger slice of Bitcoin per share or just a diluted one. In this case, Strategy’s share now represents 5.6% more Bitcoin than it did before.

Needless to say, this pushed the total Bitcoin stash of Strategy to 780,897 BTC worth $59.02 billion at an average cost of $75,577 per Bitcoin.

This happened at the back of Bitcoin trading at $74,576.83 at the time of publishing, after a hike of over 5% in just 24 hours.

Are these Bitcoin additions benefiting Saylor’s Strategy?

Now calculating all these together, Strategy was sitting at an unrealized loss of $803.6 million, which is a $1,029.14 loss per BTC.

However, it’s important to note that there was no actual loss that the firm faced. In fact, if Bitcoin’s price flips above the $75,577 price level, then the firm will shift into the profit side. 

The price analysis of Bitcoin, along with the RSI and MACD lying above the neutral level, confirms that bullish pressure was strong. Hence, there appears to be room for BTC to cross past the $76,687 resistance level.

How is STRC acting as the catalyst?

As of the 13th of April, STRC reportedly absorbed “102% of today’s Bitcoin mining supply.” This marked the 6th consecutive day of full absorption. Remarking on the same, STRC noted, 

458 BTC — every coin mined, plus 8 pulled from HODLers.

Simply put, this means that STRC is trying to create a short-term supply squeeze by accumulating BTC and, in turn, dominating the entire new supply. 

Additionally, the crypto community, too, appreciated STRC’s role, as noted by an analyst who said,

What’s behind this Sunday tease and Monday purchase?

Now, if we look at Strategy’s recent buying pattern, then Saylor is usually posting a tease on Sunday, and on Monday, Strategy adds new BTC.

So, the reason behind choosing Sunday for the tease might be for building anticipation and creating speculation.

Meanwhile, choosing Monday for adding BTC would be to set the Bitcoin sentiment early. Additionally, investors and analysts are also more active on Monday, hence justifying Saylor’s buying pattern.  

This comes as MSTR stock price was trading at $132.36 after a hike of 2.89% in the last trading session. However, the drop of over 55% in the past 6 months still raises eyebrows. 


Final Summary

  • Michael Saylor’s Strategy’s new Bitcoin addition to its treasury brings its BTC Yield to 5.6% YTD.
  • Strategy currently sits at an unrealized loss of $804 million, but a BTC price flip above $75,577 would turn the loss into profit.
