  1. Strategy Adds 1,036 BTC, Lifting Bitcoin Reserve to 850,364 — this brief
  2. Strategy Adds Bitcoin While Buying Back Preferred Shares

Strategy Inc. expanded its bitcoin treasury with the purchase of 1,036 BTC for approximately $81.9 million, according to Bitcoin.com’s summary of the company’s latest SEC disclosure. The acquisition covered Nov. 2 through Nov. 8, 2026, and was disclosed Monday through a Form 8-K dated Nov. 9. The purchase lifted Strategy’s reported bitcoin holdings to 850,364 BTC. Bitcoin.com and Cointelegraph independently report the same $81.9 million transaction value, while Bitcoin.com supplies the precise coin count and post-purchase reserve total. The announcement represents a continuation of Strategy’s repeated use of corporate capital to increase its bitcoin position.

Cointelegraph’s coverage broadens the filing’s capital-allocation picture by reporting that Strategy also spent $188.3 million repurchasing STRC preferred shares. That separate transaction is not mentioned in Bitcoin.com’s supplied summary. Aside from this additional financing detail, the outlets do not identify conflicting figures for either the bitcoin purchase or its reported value.

The holdings total places the latest acquisition within Strategy’s much larger bitcoin treasury, while the filing also shows that the company’s preferred-share activity continued alongside its bitcoin buying. Strategy disclosed both elements to the SEC, making the Form 8-K the central source for the reported changes in its treasury and capital structure.

Market conditions were subdued when the filing was reported. Bitcoin was priced at $75,379, down 0.82% over 24 hours and 2.96% over seven days, with a $1.52 trillion market capitalization. The total crypto market stood at $2.58 trillion and was described as broadly flat, while the Fear & Greed index registered 29, corresponding to Fear.

Further attention will center on Strategy’s future treasury disclosures, additional changes in its bitcoin holdings, and any further STRC preferred-share repurchases. Those disclosures would show whether the Nov. 2–8 bitcoin purchase was an isolated addition or part of a continuing pattern of treasury expansion and capital management activity.
