REDATOR Ben Graham Posted February 18 REDATOR Report Share Posted February 18 On 17 February 2025, Michael Saylor’s Strategy acquired an additional 2,486 Bitcoin for $168.4 million at an average price of $67,710 per BTC. With the latest purchase, the company’s total Bitcoin Holdings total 717,131 BTC. Currently, Strategy has $54.52 billion in Bitcoin, making it the largest institutional crypto holder. However, Bitcoin continues to decline, hovering between $67k to $69k mark and thus sending Saylor’s corporate treasury into the red. Bitcoin has declined nearly 23% since the start of 2026 alone. The company’s average cost basis of $76,027 per coin means its Bitcoin position currently carries substantial unrealized losses approaching $7 billion as of early February.

In fact, he has doubled down on his Bitcoin, saying “spring is coming.” We may be in the middle of a crypto winter, but spring is coming — and Bitcoin is winning. pic.twitter.com/jxvzK3XwSN — Michael Saylor (@saylor) February 17, 2026 DISCOVER: 16+ New and Upcoming Binance Listings in 2026 Saylor’s Plan Of Action If Bitcoin Crashes Below The Critical Support Level Of $58,800? Strategy’s stock performance has been dismal but the biggest whale in the room has been raising fast cash by selling shares to buy more Bitcoin. The big fear likely keeping you up at night is “forced selling.” If Strategy’s stock price collapses because buyers lose faith, could they be forced to liquidate Bitcoin to cover debts? Analysts are divided. Some market watchers now suggest investors might be better off buying Bitcoin directly rather than holding Strategy stock, which risks further decoupling from the asset it holds. However, long-term holders know this game well. When it comes to Bitcoin volatility and HODLer conviction, true believers view these dips as temporary noise. Unless Bitcoin crashes below the critical support level of $58,800, Strategy is likely to hold the line.
