After 13 straight weeks of accumulation, Strategy seemingly paused its bitcoin buying activity last week.

Strategy (MSTR), the world’s largest publicly traded bitcoin holder, appears to have paused its steady accumulation, with no indication of a purchase announcement last week.

Executive Chairman Michael Saylor typically flags upcoming buys with his signature Sunday “Orange Dot” post on X, followed by a detailed filing on Monday morning. This time, however, the usual signal was missing. Instead, Saylor’s post focused on the company’s perpetual preferred equity offering, Stretch (STRC), suggesting no new bitcoin was acquired.

If confirmed, the pause would end a streak of roughly 13 consecutive weeks of purchases that began in late December, during which Strategy added 90,831 BTC to its holdings.

Company data shows the Tysons Corner, Virginia-based firm currently holds 762,099 bitcoin at an average acquisition cost of $75,694 per token.

The apparent break in buying comes with MSTR shares still trading about 76% below their all-time high, while bitcoin remains below the $67,000 level.
