- The company had added another 1,800 BTC for $143 million one week earlier, showing that its accumulation strategy remains active.
- Strive’s holdings are worth just over $1.9 billion near current prices, while Strategy paused new Bitcoin purchases and shifted attention toward repurchasing STRC shares during the same weekly period.
Strive has expanded its Bitcoin treasury again, acquiring 1,375 BTC for $109 million at an average price of $79,281 per coin. The latest purchase lifts the company’s total holdings to 24,531 BTC, continuing a pattern of frequent accumulation. The notable development is not merely the size of the latest buy, but the consistency with which Strive keeps adding Bitcoin to its balance sheet. With Bitcoin trading near $78,200, the company’s holdings are valued at just over $1.9 billion, putting its treasury well beyond the 24,500 BTC threshold and reinforcing its concentrated exposure to the cryptocurrency.

The acquisition follows a larger purchase announced one week earlier, when Strive added 1,800 BTC for $143 million at a similar average price. Two substantial purchases in close succession show that the company’s accumulation strategy remains active rather than opportunistic. CEO Matt Cole said 70% of the capital raised during the previous week came from SATA, which now has $999 million in notional outstanding. That figure leaves the instrument just short of the $1 billion mark, while the newly acquired Bitcoin adds another layer to Strive’s treasury position and highlights the financing channels being used to support continued purchases.
Strive Keeps Buying While Strategy Steps Back
Strive’s latest move also creates a contrast with Strategy, the corporate Bitcoin buyer most closely associated with repeated large-scale accumulation. Eight days earlier, Strategy had disclosed its first Bitcoin purchase in more than two months, but this week it reported no new acquisition. While Strategy temporarily stepped away from buying, Strive continued adding Bitcoin and maintained its regular purchase cadence. Strategy instead shifted attention toward repurchasing STRC shares, making the difference in capital allocation especially visible as Strive pressed ahead with another nine-figure Bitcoin purchase during the same period.
The result is a treasury that now stands at 24,531 BTC after Strive added 3,175 BTC across its two most recent disclosed purchases. At current pricing, those holdings are worth slightly more than $1.9 billion, though the latest acquisition price of $79,281 sits above Bitcoin’s quoted market price near $78,200. Strive’s growing reserve shows a clear commitment to continued Bitcoin accumulation even as another major corporate holder pauses. With SATA approaching $1 billion in notional outstanding and management continuing its established announcement pattern, the company’s strategy remains centered on expanding its Bitcoin position through repeated, sizable purchases.
