Strategy reported no Bitcoin (BTC) purchases or stock sales last week, marking its first pause in 13 weeks, according to a Monday filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Michael Saylor-led company said it did not buy any Bitcoin between March 23 and March 29 and did not sell shares under its at-the-market offering program, leaving its holdings unchanged at 762,099 BTC.
Typically, Strategy funds its BTC purchases through the sale of its common stock. However, the company reported it “did not sell any shares under its at-the-market offering program and did not purchase any Bitcoin.”
The share price of its MSTR Class A stock on the Nasdaq has slid more than 60% in the last six months, reaching $126.78 apiece at the time of publication.
According to Strategy’s reported purchase history, Monday would mark the first time that the company did not report a weekly BTC buy since December 2025.
Although Executive Chairman Michael Saylor did not publicly announce any reason for the move, some companies have been pivoting from mining or acquiring more of the cryptocurrency amid increasing difficulty and falling prices — the price of BTC has declined by more than 18% in the last 12 months, reaching $67,197 at the time of publication.
Saylor’s weekly posts on the X social media platform have become closely watched as his company has added additional BTC holdings.
