Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, may soon sell $21 billion in preferred stock to buy more Bitcoin, according to a Monday filing.
The firm said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing that it has now entered into a sales agreement with a dozen financial institutions that will be able to issue its “STRK” offering.
The company held $40 billion worth of Bitcoin when it first introduced STRK in January. At the time, the firm said it was targeting a $2 billion capital raise using preferred stock, which features an 8% cumulative dividend that’s payable in either cash or Class A shares.
Monday’s filing from Strategy notes that the firm can make no assurances as to when the sale of its preferred stock will take place, or if it will be able to sell $21 billion worth of preferred shares.
Strategy meanwhile announced no new Bitcoin purchases for a second week in a row.
That will come as no surprise to Myriad users, who correctly predicted that the company wouldn't buy any Bitcoin before March 10. An hour before the prediction market closed, 83% of users said there would be no new BTC buy from Strategy. (Disclosure: Myriad is a prediction market and engagement platform developed by Dastan, parent company of an editorially independent Decrypt.)
While the firm’s Bitcoin-buying spree heated up last year, the firm last bought Bitcoin on Feb. 24., when it scooped up $1.9 billion worth of the asset for an average price of $97,500, per Saylor Tracker.
Amid President Donald Trump’s renewed trade war, Bitcoin’s price has dipped to a five-month low. Around noon Eastern, the cryptocurrency’s price had fallen 5.3% over the past day to $79,000, according to crypto data provider CoinGecko.

Business intelligence software company Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, signaled on Monday that it did not buy the latest dip in Bitcoin’s price. In a Securities and Exchange Commission filing, Strategy stated that its holdings of 499,096 Bitcoin, worth $44 billion, remained unchanged amid chaotic price action last week.

On Monday, Strategy’s shares were hit relatively harder than Bitcoin’s price. The firm’s share price has dropped 12% to $251 in midday trading, per Yahoo Finance.
Strategy’s $21 billion announcement on Monday dovetailed with its Bitcoin-buying plans unveiled last year. In October, the company said it plans to raise $42 billion through equity and fixed income sales over the next three years to purchase more Bitcoin than it could otherwise.
As crypto prices have been battered over the past few months, Strategy’s market capitalization has fallen relative to the value of its Bitcoin holdings.

Trump’s Crypto Summit: What Is It, Who’s Going, and Why the 'Crypto Council' Fell Apart
The White House is set to hold its first-ever crypto summit on Friday—and most industry bigwigs are jockeying for a seat at the table. The inaugural crypto summit is likely to be run by AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks and essentially supplants President Donald Trump’s promised “crypto council,” which the administration quietly ditched in recent weeks as crypto industry infighting threatened to undo political goodwill, sources told Decrypt. Formal invites to the summit began trickling out Tuesday...
