MicroStrategy Adds 3,459 BTC in April Buy
In a report by CryptosRus, the firm now controls 2.53% of bitcoin’s total supply after the latest purchase. The acquisition pushed MicroStrategy’s total BTC holdings beyond 531,000, acquired at an average price of $67,556. CEO Michael Saylor stated in an update that the new batch cost roughly $82,618 per bitcoin, including fees.
This brings the firm’s aggregate bitcoin investment to $35.92 billion, funded primarily through capital raised via stock offerings. The April buy used net proceeds from a Class A common stock at-the-market equity program worth $21 billion.
Strategic Structure Supports Expanded Crypto Exposure
The reported breakdown shows 959,712 shares of Class A stock sold between April 7 and April 13, generating $285.7 million. These funds were used directly to acquire the 3,459 BTC, continuing MicroStrategy’s long-standing bitcoin treasury policy. The company holds the assets under direct custody rather than using a third-party custodian.
Besides bitcoin exposure, MicroStrategy maintains two preferred stock programs totaling $42 billion in capacity. The 8.00% Series A STRK remains largely untapped, while the company continues selling common stock to fund digital asset purchases. This capital rotation signals a strong commitment to long-term bitcoin accumulation strategies.
April Bitcoin Purchase Signals Institutional Market Impact
MicroStrategy’s $285 million purchase in one week reinforced bitcoin’s role as a primary institutional treasury asset. The move added visible buying pressure to spot markets, aligning with price support near the $82,000 level. Traders tracked the timing of purchases against short-term price rebounds during the April window.
Institutional buyers responded to the news, with crypto sentiment strengthening across derivatives and spot flows shortly after disclosure. Market participants flagged the scale of the buy as evidence of renewed corporate confidence. The firm’s accumulation pace continues to affect liquidity depth and short-term volatility across BTC pairs.
