On Monday, the Virginia-based company announced that it had halted Bitcoin purchases under its at-the-market equity offering program, although it did not sell any of its Class A common stock.
A February 3 SEC filing disclosed that MicroStrategy, under CEO Phong Le, possesses 471,107 BTC, acquired for $30.4 billion at an average price of $64,511 per coin.
Since 2020, MicroStrategy, under Saylor’s direction, has been accumulating Bitcoin, investing over $20 billion to enhance its reserves.
Last month, MicroStrategy shareholders approved two amendments related to Class A common stock and preferred stock options, which could influence the company’s capital structure.

Michael Saylor Indicates Interest in Shaping Crypto Regulations
Saylor, a long-time proponent of Bitcoin, acknowledged the impact of President Donald Trump’s election on the cryptocurrency’s value following its significant post-election surge.
Trump has committed to reducing federal enforcement actions against the digital asset sector, a position Saylor has openly supported.
However, Trump’s recent tariff policies have introduced uncertainty in crypto markets, contributing to volatility in Bitcoin’s price following its post-election increase.
While Saylor has not disclosed specific details about his strategy, he mentioned in an interview with Bloomberg that he would be willing to advise Trump on digital asset regulations.
