Strategy bought 1,036 Bitcoin for $81.9 million in the week covered by its Monday filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, according to Cointelegraph’s report published on November 9, 2026, at 21:29:47 UTC+8. The average purchase price was $79,012 per BTC.
The purchase brought the company’s holdings to 850,364 BTC, acquired for a total of $64.16 billion at an average cost of $75,456 per coin. Those holdings represented roughly 4.05% of Bitcoin’s maximum supply of 21 million coins.
Buybacks took the larger share of capital
Since the start of October, Strategy had spent about $1.06 billion repurchasing its STRC preferred shares—nearly five times the $219.7 million spent on Bitcoin over the same period.
During the latest reporting week, Strategy raised $283.8 million in net proceeds by selling about 2.05 million MSTR common shares through its at-the-market offering program. It allocated those proceeds as follows:
- $188.3 million to repurchase about 1.89 million STRC shares, following $208.2 million in buybacks the previous week.
- $81.9 million to Bitcoin purchases.
- $13.6 million to its USD Cash balance.
The latest Bitcoin acquisition followed a purchase of 811 BTC for $65.5 million the previous week. Bitcoin accumulation therefore continued, while preferred-share repurchases accounted for substantially more spending over the period since early October.
Cash balances and the reported stock snapshot
Strategy’s separate US dollar reserve declined from $4.79 billion to $4.77 billion after it drew $21.1 million to pay preferred-stock dividends. Its USD Cash balance increased about 10%, from $132.7 million to $146.2 million.
According to Yahoo Finance figures cited in the report, MSTR fell 3% to $125 in Monday’s premarket trading, while STRC slipped 0.06% to $99.7. These were dated equity-market readings, not evidence on their own of a broader Bitcoin price trend.
