Bitcoin News Today: Strategy Raises $4.2 Billion to Buy 21,000 More Bitcoin

Strategy Inc. has significantly increased its investment in Bitcoin through an expanded STRC preferred stock offering, raising $4.2 billion in July 2025 to further its Bitcoin acquisition strategy [1]. This marks a dramatic increase from its initial target of $500 million and reflects the company’s aggressive approach to building a corporate Bitcoin treasury [2]. The funding will be used to purchase an additional 21,000 BTC, bringing the firm’s total Bitcoin holdings to approximately 628,791 BTC—nearly 3% of the circulating supply [3].

The expanded offering is part of a broader at-the-market (ATM) program that enables Strategy to continue acquiring Bitcoin over time while also supporting corporate operations [4]. The preferred stock, which carries a 9% yield, is designed to provide investors with a structured financial instrument that aligns with the company’s long-term vision for Bitcoin as a strategic asset [5]. The move has been characterized as a pivotal moment in corporate Bitcoin adoption, with analysts highlighting the potential influence on broader market dynamics and institutional investment behavior [6].

Key figures, including Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, have emphasized the company’s commitment to developing innovative financial products that expand access to Bitcoin’s economic potential [7]. Saylor noted that the STRC offering reflects a balanced approach to stability and yield, reinforcing the firm’s role in shaping the institutional landscape for digital assets [8]. The company’s approach leverages both equity and debt instruments to capitalize on Bitcoin’s market opportunities, echoing historical trends in corporate finance and asset diversification [9].

The impact of Strategy’s increased Bitcoin holdings is already being felt in the market. The firm’s large-scale purchases have added significant volume, signaling growing institutional confidence in Bitcoin as a legitimate asset class [10]. Analysts suggest that such corporate activity could contribute to both liquidity and price adjustments in the broader market, although future volatility remains a potential risk [11]. The company’s repeated capital raises, including two expansions of its STRC offering within two weeks, demonstrate its strategic focus on long-term value creation through Bitcoin accumulation [12].

Strategy’s financial performance has also shown strong momentum, with recent earnings per share (EPS) results surprising Wall Street and highlighting the firm’s growing influence in the public markets [13]. As the company continues to scale its Bitcoin treasury, investors are closely monitoring its financial activities and the potential ripple effects on the digital asset ecosystem [14].
