TL;DR
- Strategy CEO Phong Le says the company plans to keep accumulating Bitcoin, with holdings at 840,050 BTC worth about $55 billion.
- Le said occasional sales could still make sense when they improve Strategy’s Bitcoin position, framing them as tactical balance-sheet management rather than a strategic reversal.
- MSTR jumped 11% Friday to $147.37, while trading volume remains unusually high and technical levels near $152 and $128 define the stock’s next tests.
Strategy CEO Phong Le says the company has no intention of ending its Bitcoin accumulation strategy, even as its stock stages another sharp rally. Strategy shares jumped 11% on Friday while Le reiterated that Bitcoin remains a permanent part of the company’s balance-sheet approach. The firm currently holds 840,050 BTC, worth about $55 billion, making it the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder by the figures cited Friday. Le’s message was clear: Strategy still sees itself as a long-term Bitcoin accumulator, not a company preparing to unwind its position as market conditions improve.

Strategy Keeps Buying While Leaving Room for Tactical Sales
Le also stressed that perpetual accumulation does not mean Strategy will never sell. He said small disposals could make sense if they improve the company’s Bitcoin position in real terms, especially as Bitcoin becomes more deeply integrated with traditional finance and decentralized finance markets. The distinction matters because Strategy is framing selective sales as balance-sheet management rather than a reversal of its core Bitcoin strategy. With traditional financial institutions moving further into Bitcoin custody, Le argued that flexibility could become increasingly important for a company carrying tens of billions of dollars in BTC on its balance sheet today.
The renewed commitment arrived alongside unusually strong trading activity in Strategy shares. The stock now regularly trades more shares than Berkshire Hathaway, a crossover first recorded in late December 2025 that has persisted through 2026. Some August sessions saw between 46 million and 49 million shares change hands, with turnover reaching $4.4 billion. That volume has pushed Strategy into the ranks of the 10 most actively traded U.S. stocks, underscoring how closely its equity has become tied to investor demand for Bitcoin exposure. Friday’s 11% jump reinforced that relationship for shareholders watching momentum return.
Technical momentum strengthened with the rally. Strategy shares climbed to $147.37 after breaking decisively above a descending trendline dating back to the May high of $199, while the RSI divergence indicator reached 63.56, its strongest reading since September’s highs. The stock also cleared its 20-day exponential moving average at $128.49, with the 50-day and 100-day averages below the current price. The next major technical test sits near $152 at the 200-day EMA, while holding above $128 remains important for preserving the breakout structure. Those levels now frame the immediate chart setup after Friday’s advance for now.
