Michael Saylor’s Strategy, the world’s largest public Bitcoin investor, has disclosed its latest BTC purchases as the cryptocurrency slid in response to escalating geopolitical fears last week.
Strategy acquired 245 Bitcoin (BTC) for $26 million during the week ending June 22, the company announced in an official US Securities and Exchange Commission filing on Monday.
The cost of Strategy’s latest Bitcoin haul averaged $105,856 per coin, with Bitcoin plummeting from around $108,900 last Monday to an intraweek low of just below $99,000, according to CoinGecko data.
Its recent purchases, including a $1 billion Bitcoin buy, have boosted the company’s holdings to 592,345 BTC bought for approximately $41.9 billion at an average price of $70,681 per coin.
Strategy’s BTC yield stands at 19% YTD
Following its latest purchases, Strategy has maintained its Bitcoin yield, an indicator reflecting the percentage increase in the value of its BTC fortune over a specific period of time.
According to Strategy’s data, its year-to-date BTC yield after the new purchases stood at 19.2%, just 0.01% above the yield in the previous $1 billion BTC buy announced on June 16.
The latest BTC yield surge brings Strategy closer to its targeted YTD yield goal of 25% by the end of 2025. The company previously targeted a smaller yield of 15% but increased it on May 1.
Strategy’s new Bitcoin purchase announcement came shortly after Saylor raised his long-term price prediction on June 21, forecasting the cryptocurrency to hit $21 million in 21 years.
