> Strategy holds 848,000 BTC, but in recent weeks it has spent far more buying back its own preferred shares. The filing is due Tuesday.

**Michael Saylor hinted on Sunday 11 October 2026 that Strategy has bought more bitcoin**, posting "There's always room for more orange" on X, the signal investors watch for on Sundays, [Cointelegraph reported](https://cointelegraph.com/news/saylors-teases-strategy-bitcoin-buying-after-ending-september-with-strc-buybacks). The confirming filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission is unlikely before **Tuesday 13 October**, because US federal offices are shut on Monday for Columbus Day.

## Strategy's bitcoin in numbers

| | Figure |
| --- | --- |
| Bitcoin held (8-K filed 5 October) | **848,000 BTC** |
| Bought 28 September to 4 October | 334 BTC for **$28.7 million** |
| STRC preferred shares bought back, same week | about 1.77 million for **$176.3 million** |
| Raised from new common shares in Q3 | **$5.41 billion** (analyst Shanaka Anslem Perera) |

The pattern Cointelegraph points to: in recent weeks Strategy has spent far more buying back its own **STRC preferred stock** than buying bitcoin, more than six times its weekly bitcoin budget in September. Perera noted the company ended the third quarter with only **1,666 more BTC than at the end of June**, and that the filings put **9.5% of the Q3 raise** directly into bitcoin, with the rest going to a dollar reserve, cash, dividends and preferred buybacks.

## Why it matters

Strategy is the largest corporate holder of bitcoin, so the size of its weekly buying is read as a gauge of demand. A smaller buyer at the top of the market leaves the price more exposed to other flows.

## What it means in rupees

Bitcoin was about **$83,800** on Sunday evening on our [bitcoin price page](/data/btc-usd). At the open-market dollar rate of about **Rs 277** on our [dollar rate page](/data/usd-pkr), that is roughly **Rs 23.2 million** for one coin. Strategy's 848,000 BTC would be worth about **$71 billion** at that price.
