Strategy’s Bitcoin holdings stand at around $64.44 billion and have not increased this week.
ceasefire for 4 weeks in a row
Strategy Chairman Michael Saylor confirmed on Sunday that the company had made no Bitcoin purchases during the week, marking the fourth consecutive week of purchases.
The announcement was made via the “Orange Dots” chart posted on his usual channel, X. This chart tracks all of the company’s purchases.
Followers read the chart as a new buy signal. This time the message below said something different: “No purchases this week.”
He didn’t leave it there. Saylor added that the company will resume purchases next week. I simply wrote, “Back to work next week.”

Recent purchases are already decreasing
The pause comes as Strategy’s acquisition volume has slowed noticeably. According to the report, the company acquired 3,273 BTC last Monday at an average price of $77,906 per coin, bringing the total amount to about $255 million.
While this number sounds large in itself, it represents a decrease of nearly 90% compared to the $2.54 billion purchases made on April 20th.
Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings currently stand at 818,334 BTC, acquired at an average cost of $75,537 per coin.

Despite the news, BTC price remains stable.
Bitcoin did not react much to this announcement. As of Sunday, BTC was trading at around $78,590, up about 0.28% on the day. The $78,000 level held the bottom, with analysts pointing to $75,000 as the next meaningful support below that.
Some analysts have pointed out that the next resistance level above the current price is near $79,000. According to what he has read, a move above this level could push Bitcoin into the $86,000 to $88,000 range. Moving higher, the $92,000 to $94,000 area would be the next upper limit to watch.
For now, the market appears to be having a successful week off Saylor. Strategy’s buying activity has grown to be one of the most closely watched signals in the Bitcoin market, and the company’s massive holdings mean that even a week’s absence can attract attention.
It is not yet known whether large-scale accumulation will begin again next week or whether we will see another gentle decline.
