The company\u2019s overall average cost per Bitcoin stands at approximately $66,000.<\/p>\n<p>This latest <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Saylorsatsire\/status\/1901615650000318646\">acquisition<\/a> comes just weeks after<a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/microstrategy-makes-bitcoin-purchase-at-2-billion\/\"> MicroStrategy made its largest Bitcoin purchase of 2025<\/a>. In February, the company spent $2 billion on BTC at prices above $97,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, with <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/learn\/why-is-bitcoin-going-down\/\">Bitcoin trading lower<\/a>, this smaller buy raises questions about the firm\u2019s strategy.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOn-chain clues: Is Bitcoin gearing up for a major reversal? Active addresses peak, signaling potential bullish momentum ahead,\u201d Saylor <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Saylorsatsire\/status\/1901607256774377791\">posted<\/a> on X (formerly Twitter) today.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>One possible reason for the limited purchase is that MicroStrategy may be waiting for more capital from its stock offerings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Last month, the company <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/microstrategy-2-billion-stock-offering-to-buy-more-bitcoin\/\">raised $2 billion through a private offering of convertible senior notes<\/a>. Most of those funds likely went toward its previous acquisition. If additional funding is needed, the company may be pacing its purchases.<\/p>\n<p>MicroStrategy finances Bitcoin acquisitions through stock sales and zero-interest convertible notes without selling off other assets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While this approach has worked so far, the firm\u2019s ability to raise capital depends on maintaining strong financial stability. A <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/strategy-mstr-bitcoin-liquidation\/\">sharp rise in liabilities<\/a> relative to assets could make future financing more difficult.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"bitcoins microstrategy bitcoin holdings\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-157.png\"><figcaption>MicroStrategy Bitcoin Holdings Over Time.

Arthur Hayes and other experts predict <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/arthur-hayes-bitcoin-crash-prediction\/\">BTC could drop to around $70,000<\/a> before the next upward move.<\/p>\n<p>BeinCrypto analysts believe the <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/is-the-crypto-bull-run-over-already\/\">market is experiencing a temporary correction<\/a> rather than the end of the bullish phase.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If MicroStrategy shares this view, it may be waiting for a further dip before making a larger investment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"bic-c-disclimer-7473a156-297f-4339-b7ff-045fac3b1629\">\n<p>Disclaimer<\/p>\n<p>In adherence to the <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/trust-project\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/trust-project\/\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-21920\">Trust Project<\/a> guidelines, BeInCrypto is committed to unbiased, transparent reporting.
