Strategy sold 32 BTC (about $2.5 million) primarily to fund preferred stock dividend payments and manage treasury operations, not because it is abandoning its Bitcoin strategy. The sale represents just 0.004% of its 843,706 BTC holdings and is the company’s first Bitcoin sale since its 2022 tax-loss transaction. Strategy simultaneously raised $128.3 million through share issuance, showing it still prefers financing growth through capital markets. The immediate impact was negative market sentiment, contributing to Bitcoin briefly falling below $72,000. Going forward, Strategy remains heavily bullish on Bitcoin, retaining roughly 4% of the total BTC supply and significant buying capacity.
