Michael Saylor Reacts to Strategy Bitcoin Selloff Claims: “HODL”

Updated 2 hours ago by · 2 mins read

Michael Saylor has debunked rumors that Strategy is selling its Bitcoin holdings while reaffirming the company is buying more.

Michael Saylor, the executive chairman of Strategy has reacted to the news that the business intelligence and software firm is selling its Bitcoin BTC $97 026 24h volatility: 3.4% Market cap: $1.93 T Vol. 24h: $127.66 B stash.

These rumors about Strategy’s Bitcoin sales caused concern in the crypto community, but Michael Saylor and others have clarified that the claims are false.

Strategy Is Still HODLing Bitcoin

Bitcoin treasury firm Strategy has accumulated a total of 641,692 BTC, acquired at $47.54 billion with an average purchase price of $74,079 per coin across all acquisitions.

The most recent of its acquisitions happened less than a week ago, as the firm added 487 BTC to its already massive stash. The company has about $20.29 billion in unrealized gains.

It is worth noting that Strategy built this Bitcoin holding over five years and never at any point indicated that it will offload its stash.

Suddenly, a post appeared on X claiming that the Saylor-led company had started selling part of its Bitcoin holdings. One user, Rekt Fencer, alleged that Strategy had already sold 33,000 BTC and was continuing to sell more, supposedly totaling about $3.2 billion.

The X post highlighted that Strategy had fallen below 1 Net Asset Value (NAV), for the first time ever.

To this news, Saylor responded “HODL,” affirming in another post that the firm is buying more BTC.

While some X community members are still in panic mode, others are quite confident that Strategy would not make such a move.
