The $285 million investment marks Strategy’s first Bitcoin buy since March 31, when the firm purchased $1.9 billion worth of Bitcoin, according to Cointelegraph.
As per data from Saylortracker, the firm currently holds more than $9.1 billion in unrealized profits, indicating a 25% gain on its total Bitcoin position as of 12:20 pm UTC.

Strategy’s ongoing accumulation occurs despite a general market downturn and reduced appetite for risk assets. This decline has been largely attributed to uncertainties regarding global trade policy following US President Donald Trump’s announcement of new tariffs.
On April 9, Trump declared a 90-day suspension of heightened reciprocal tariffs, reverting the rates to a 10% baseline for most countries, excluding China, which is currently subjected to a 145% import tariff.
