Saylor signals Strategy is ‘Back’ to Bitcoin buying

Strategy’s Michael Saylor said “We’re Back” in his latest signal on X (formerly Twitter) of the company’s likely return to Bitcoin buying.

Should that record, and community interpretation, hold true, his post points to the resumption of corporate Bitcoin accumulation following a notable summer hiatus.

To put the message in context, over the past two months, Strategy paused its regular weekly Bitcoin buying spree. Instead of expanding its crypto holdings, management pivoted toward bolstering its balance sheet. The firm focused on stabilizing its preferred stock offerings, building a $5.1 billion US dollar reserve, and introducing a dedicated $1.59 billion cash pool generated through massive common stock offerings.

This strategic breather coincided with a challenging market stretch that left Strategy’s industry-biggest BTC treasury sitting deep in the red on paper. However, recent macro momentum has propelled Bitcoin past the $80,000 threshold.

Because Strategy holds more than 840,447 Bitcoin at an average cost basis hovering around $75,385, the recent price recovery has pushed the firm’s overall position back into positive territory for the first time in months.

Saylor’s “We’re Back” declaration functions on multiple levels. Operationally, it likely signals that the company is ready to deploy its considerable dry powder back into the asset class it champions. Psychologically, it marks a triumphant return to profitability and a renewed offensive for the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin treasury.
