Saylor publishes September 1 X post urging Bitcoin accumulation
The comment arrived as Strategy, the company formerly known as MicroStrategy, finalised a corporate rebrand and continued to present itself as a Bitcoin treasury operator. In February the company said it would do business as Strategy, and on August 11 it completed a legal name change to Strategy Inc.
Saylor’s phrasing condensed a policy he has articulated in interviews and filings since 2020. Under that approach the company raises capital in public markets and deploys proceeds into Bitcoin, seeking incremental additions regardless of short term price moves. The company’s communications describe this as a core treasury activity alongside its enterprise analytics software.
Strategy adds 3,081 BTC in late August as holdings reach 632,457 BTC
In the week ended August 24 the company purchased 3,081 Bitcoin for approximately 356.9 million dollars at an average price of 115,829 dollars per coin. Following those transactions the firm’s reported holdings reached 632,457 BTC.
Company materials show the same total on a running holdings dashboard that summarises purchases and share issuance. The accumulation drive has been financed through a mix of common stock, convertible notes and a series of exchange listed preferred instruments.
In August the Financial Times reported on a new preferred share called Stretch, which adds to earlier series and is intended to replace more volatile convertible debt with longer dated capital. The stated objective is to reduce redemption risk while maintaining capacity to acquire additional Bitcoin.
Saylor’s post did not announce a fresh transaction or guidance change. It nevertheless arrives at a time when the company’s balance sheet exposure to Bitcoin continues to expand and its corporate identity has been recast around the asset.

The combination of ongoing market purchases, equity and preferred issuance, and a simplified brand underscores the firm’s position that scale in Bitcoin holdings is central to its strategy.
At the time of press the Bitcoin price currently stands at $110,358.00 USD, reflecting an exact intraday rise of $814.00, which equates to a +0.743 % increase from the previous closing level.
