Saylor renews his Bitcoin buying message

Saylor posted the buying message on Tuesday, and he did not provide a purchase size. His short statement was clear and direct, and it pointed to continued accumulation.

“I am buying Bitcoin,” Saylor said in his message. The remark followed recent disclosures that Strategy added more Bitcoin to its treasury.

I'm buying bitcoin right now. Are you?

Saylor is executive chairman and co-founder of Strategy. He has tied the company’s treasury approach to Bitcoin for several years.

He has also used public updates to signal when the company is active. Those posts often come near the time of formal company filings.

Strategy’s holdings move above 720,000 BTC

Strategy’s latest reported balance stands at 720,737 Bitcoin. The figure reflects the company’s ongoing purchases and its practice of adding to positions.

The company disclosed last week that it acquired 3,015 BTC. After that purchase, the total moved further above the 720,000 level.

At current market prices, the company said the holdings were valued at about $49 billion. The valuation changes with Bitcoin’s price, since the asset trades continuously.

Strategy remains the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, based on disclosed totals. Its holdings are far ahead of most public companies that report Bitcoin on balance sheets.

Bitcoin price recovers after a brief drop

Bitcoin traded near $68,500 at press time, based on CoinGecko data. The price was up about 7% over the past seven days.

Earlier in the session, Bitcoin fell below $66,500 before recovering. The rebound happened as the market turned positive after the earlier slide.

Price swings are common for Bitcoin, and short moves can be sharp. Traders also react to macro news, flows, and crypto market positioning.

Saylor’s message did not cite the price move as a reason for buying. Still, it arrived during a session that included both weakness and recovery.

Corporate Bitcoin strategy remains central for Strategy

Under Saylor’s leadership, Strategy has made Bitcoin a core part of its corporate approach. The firm has described Bitcoin as a long-term treasury asset.

Saylor has argued that Bitcoin serves as a monetary alternative, and he has repeated that view in public remarks. He has also encouraged corporate adoption of Bitcoin.

Other companies have cited Bitcoin as a treasury asset in recent years. The report noted that Saylor’s public advocacy has been linked to broader corporate interest.

Strategy continues to report purchases through disclosures, and it updates totals after acquisitions. The latest figure places the company at 720,737 BTC as Saylor signals more buying.
