Strategy Adds 1,587 Bitcoin in $100M Purchase, Deepening Bet
Michael Saylor's Strategy continues its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation with a fresh $100 million purchase of 1,587 BTC.
Michael Saylor's Strategy — the software-turned-Bitcoin-treasury company formerly known as MicroStrategy — has acquired another 1,587 bitcoin for approximately $100 million, reinforcing its position as the largest corporate holder of the digital asset.

Supporters counter that the approach has, so far, generated extraordinary returns relative to holding cash or conventional treasury instruments. The debate is unlikely to be resolved soon, but each new purchase raises the stakes for both sides of the argument.
