Meanwhile, the latest purchase marks the firm’s third-smallest Bitcoin acquisition in 2025, behind only its March 17 purchase of 130 BTC and the January 6 purchase of 1,070 BTC.

According to CryptoQuant analyst JA Maartunn, Strategy typically starts each month with smaller buys that grow larger as the month unfolds.
