Strategy, the company led by Michael Saylor, sold 32 Bitcoin worth roughly $2.5 million, marking its first Bitcoin sale since 2022. The transaction was carried out to meet dividend-related obligations tied to the firm’s preferred stock offerings, according to reports.
Bitcoin’s largest corporate holder remains firmly committed to its long-term treasury strategy despite the sale, with holdings still standing above 843,000 BTC.

Seventh-Largest Bitcoin Treasury Company Strive Proposes $4.2 Billion Increase in ATM Capacity for Additional BTC Purchases
Different Moves, Same FocusThe timing of the two developments drew attention across the crypto sector. Strategy’s sale involved only a tiny fraction of its overall BTC holdings.
Data shows the company still controls a reserve worth tens of billions of dollars, leaving its broader accumulation strategy largely unchanged.
Reports note that the sale was tied to treasury management needs rather than a shift in the company’s view of Bitcoin. The firm has spent years building one of the largest corporate crypto positions in the market.
At the same time, Strive’s proposal does not represent $4.2 billion already raised or deployed. The expanded programs would allow the company to seek that amount from investors over time, with proceeds potentially directed toward additional crypto acquisitions.
The development highlights how companies are using different approaches to finance Bitcoin purchases while maintaining exposure to the asset.
