Key Takeaways

  • Strategy remains the largest corporate bitcoin holder after its latest purchase
  • The firm is bolstering cash reserves while bitcoin prices stay volatile
  • Unrealized Q4 losses highlight the risk of a crypto-heavy balance sheet
  • Investor confidence has waned, reflected in the steep share-price decline

The simultaneous bitcoin accumulation and cash raise signals Strategy’s intent to maintain liquidity while staying committed to its digital-asset strategy.
