Saylor commented: “Bitcoin is still on sale.” This statement, as analysts note, has often preceded official announcements of significant purchases by the company.
In recent months, Strategy has maintained a weekly cadence in purchase communications, always on Mondays. Observers see an already established pattern — and the concrete possibility that the first Mondays of September will also bring new digital asset “shopping” for Strategy.
What was Strategy’s latest Bitcoin purchase?
Just one week before Saylor’s post, precisely on August 24, 2025, Strategy officially announced that it had purchased 3,081 BTC. This additional increase resulted in a total expenditure of 356.87 million dollars, at an average price of 115,829 dollars per single coin.
Currently, Strategy’s treasury boasts 632,457 BTC, valued at approximately 68.6 billion dollars according to the latest available data. These numbers consolidate the company’s position as the top accumulator of Bitcoin among publicly traded companies.
Note how Strategy heavily leverages capital markets to finance its acquisitions. During 2025, the company raised 5.6 billion dollars through IPOs – equivalent to 12% of all new US listings this year.
Why was the legal issue critical for Strategy?
Simultaneously with Saylor’s post, an unexpected piece of news: the lawsuit that had been pending since May was dismissed with prejudice. The proceeding, initiated by some investors, accused Strategy of exaggerating the alleged benefits of adopting fair-value accounting.
This methodology allows for the evaluation of digital asset value each quarter according to real market prices. The main players in the sector were closely watching the case, which could have hindered the spread of Bitcoin in corporate balance sheets.
The dismissal “with prejudice,” as reported by Bloomberg, prevents the plaintiffs from reopening the same litigation in the future. An important precedent for other companies interested in following the “Strategy way” in treasury management.
What does the “Monday pattern” mean for Bitcoin followers?
Analysts have identified a trend: Strategy announced new purchases of Bitcoin for three consecutive Mondays before August 31. If the pace remains steady, Bitcoin fans might expect a new announcement in the early days of September.
This pattern is not random. It allows Strategy to optimize media impact and potentially influence market sentiment on both Bitcoin and its own stock.
Many traders view these events as leading indicators of price trends, often leveraged for short-term speculative strategies.
What are the risks for those who invest or follow the Strategy model?
The dual strategy of Strategy is based on two pillars: maximizing its Bitcoin reserves and using financial markets to support these operations. However, this involves significant risks: high asset volatility can impact the value of assets on the balance sheet and thus the company’s reputation.
Furthermore, the resolution of the legal case represents an important precedent, but it does not rule out possible new disputes in the event of sharp market movements or future changes in accounting regulations.
According to many observers, the financial solidity of Strategy now relies on three elements: the growth of Bitcoin‘s price, investor confidence in its stocks, and the ability to raise new capital through IPOs or issuances.
What changes now for the market and what prospects are opening up?
The closure of the legal case allows Strategy to strengthen its reputation as a pioneer of the corporate “Bitcoin Standard.” Saylor’s announcement suggests that the accumulation path is far from over; in fact, it could accelerate if the pattern of weekly purchases is confirmed.
Furthermore, the collection of 5.6 billion dollars through IPO in 2025 positions the company as a dominant player in the market of new listings, well beyond the world of traditional cryptocurrencies.
However, be careful: this strategy can amplify systemic risks for those who faithfully follow the Strategy formula, especially if the price of Bitcoin undergoes unexpected corrections.
The future of Strategy and Bitcoin: what to expect now?
The strategy focuses entirely on Bitcoin and the ability to anticipate digital asset trends. With the legal cases being closed, Michael Saylor is preparing to further strengthen his “digital treasure.”
