Strategy Inc. paused Bitcoin buys after 13 weeks, holding 762,099 BTC at a $57.69B cost. No shares sold. The pause follows a $42B capital plan amid rising Bitcoin volatility.

Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR) paused its Bitcoin purchases for the week ending March 29, 2026, breaking a 13-week streak of consecutive acquisitions, according to recent SEC filings. The company also reported no share sales under its at-the-market offering program during this period. As of March 29, Strategy Inc. held approximately 762,099 bitcoins, acquired at a total cost of $57.69 billion, with an average purchase price of about $75,694 per bitcoin, including fees and expenses. This pause follows the announcement of a $42 billion capital plan, split evenly between $21 billion in Class A stock and $21 billion in perpetual preferred shares, the latter offering an 11.5% yield. The company has used a multi-layered funding structure—issuing debt, preferred stock, and equity—to finance its Bitcoin acquisitions. The halt in purchases comes amid increased Bitcoin price volatility, with the cryptocurrency falling 2.4% during the week, and as Strategy's common shares have dropped over 70% from late-2024 highs. The company's weekly Bitcoin acquisition updates are closely watched as indicators of digital asset market sentiment.
