Michael Saylor, Vorstandsvorsitzender von MicroStrategy, unterbricht sein seit 13 Wochen andauerndes Ritual, bei dem er Bitcoin gekauft hat

Strategy (MicroStrategy) may have skipped its weekly Bitcoin
BTCUSD
purchase for the first time since late December, potentially ending a 13-week accumulation streak.

What Happened to MicroStrategy’s Orange Dots

For roughly 13 consecutive weeks, Saylor would post a Bitcoin accumulation chart on Sundays with orange markers signaling upcoming purchases.

A detailed 8-K filing would then follow on Monday mornings, with the ritual becoming a reliable signal for traders tracking the firm’s weekly buys.

During the streak that began in late December, Strategy acquired approximately 90,831 BTC. The company now holds 762,099 Bitcoin at an average acquisition price of $75,694 per token, according to its corporate dashboard.

This Sunday, however, Saylor shifted focus entirely. His posts highlighted STRC’s performance.

“Over the past 30 days, $STRC has been less volatile than every company in the S&P 500—and every major asset class—while delivering an 11.5% dividend yield,” he wrote.

STRC Takes Center Stage

The timing of the pivot is not random. Strategy filed a $42 billion at-the-market equity program on March 23, split evenly between $21 billion in MSTR common stock and $21 billion in STRC preferred shares.

A separate $2.1 billion ATM facility for its STRK preferred series was also announced.

STRC pays a variable annualized dividend, currently set at 11.5% for March 2026. The rate has risen for seven consecutive months since the instrument began trading in July 2025.

Its dividend resets monthly and is designed to keep shares trading near the $100 par value while reducing volatility.

Saylor argued in a follow-up post that the breakeven Bitcoin annual return needed to sustain the STRC dividend indefinitely sits at roughly 2.13%, a figure far below BTC’s historical performance.

CEO Phong Le previously stated in February that Strategy is pivoting away from common stock issuance toward preferred shares as the primary vehicle for funding future BTC purchases.

What the Silence Could Mean

The missing signal arrives as Bitcoin trades at $66,389, down roughly 47% from its October 2025 all-time high above $126,000. Meanwhile, MSTR shares have also fallen about 76% from their November 2024 peak.

However, a missing Sunday post does not guarantee a buying pause. Strategy could still announce a purchase in Monday’s 8-K filing. The firm has occasionally varied its signaling pattern before.

Strategy has also formally paused buying in the past. The firm briefly halted acquisitions in early July 2025 and again in early October 2025. Both turned out to be temporary.

If Monday’s filing confirms no new BTC was added, it would mark the first break in a streak that added 90,831 Bitcoin since late December.

If a buy is announced, the silence may simply reflect Saylor’s tactical shift toward spotlighting STRC at a critical moment for the product’s growth.
