MicroStrategy May Resume Bitcoin Purchases as Saylor Revives ‘Orange Dot’

MicroStrategy, the largest publicly traded corporate holder of Bitcoin, appears set to resume BTC purchases this week. This comes after a brief pause that interrupted one of the longest buying runs in its treasury strategy.

On Sunday, Executive Chairman Michael Saylor resurrected his customary “Orange Dot” tracker on the social media platform X, posting the phrase, “Back to work.”

Notably, similar phrases have served as a highly reliable leading indicator for multi-million-dollar Bitcoin buy orders over the past several months.

MicroStrategy currently holds 762,099 Bitcoin, valued at more than $50 billion. Another purchase this week would extend that lead and further separate the company from every other listed firm holding the token on its balance sheet.

Meanwhile, the size of any new purchase has not been disclosed.

Still, market watchers following the company’s financing activity say the latest issuance tied to its STRC preferred stock may have restored enough buying capacity. That would be enough to fund the acquisition of at least 1,500 Bitcoin.

That would mark a reversal from the previous week, when STRC traded mostly below par and appeared to curb the company’s ability to raise fresh capital for additional Bitcoin purchases.

Meanwhile, the focus is shifting beyond the next headline purchase to the mechanics supporting it. STRC, one of the instruments used to finance the company’s Bitcoin strategy, pays a variable annualized dividend of 11.5% as of April 2026.

Since launch, STRC alone has financed the purchase of 50,792 Bitcoin. That has made the preferred stock an important part of the company’s broader funding structure as it continues to build what is already the largest corporate Bitcoin treasury in the market.

The strategy, however, continues to divide opinion.

MSTR supporters view the company’s financing model as a high-conviction way to accumulate Bitcoin at scale and tighten its identity as a proxy for the asset in equity markets.

However, critics argue the growing dividend burden tied to its preferred investors leaves the company more exposed if Bitcoin enters a sharp or prolonged downturn.
