qfx As of the first of February, 2026, the concern now holds a total of 713,502 Bitcoin. In aggregate, Strategy has invested about $54.26 billion in Bitcoin, at an average price of $76,052 per BTC, a record of persistent confidence that might provoke, in a more sentimental age, a spirited blush upon any ledger-keeper’s countenance.
Strategy (MSTR), led by the ever-optimistic Michael Saylor, scooped up 855 bitcoins for a cool $75.3 million, or $87,974 each. A filing on Monday revealed this masterstroke was funded by selling common stock. Brilliant, or bonkers? You decide!
This delightful acquisition comes hot on the heels of the SAFU fund’s glamorous makeover into a Bitcoin reserve, just as the markets are floundering under another bout of selling pressure. How very fortuitous!
As its tentacles-er, algorithms-spread across networks, the crypto world is left wondering: Is this the future, or just a very expensive science experiment gone wrong?
As the clock strikes reporting time, our dear LINK trades at a heart-wrenching $9.1, down by 7.9% in just one day and a staggering 21% over the week. The bears are dancing merrily while the bulls appear to be on an extended vacation, perhaps sipping cocktails on a sunny beach far from this chaos.
Market data, those gossiping runes of the financial parlor, now suggest a deeper bear rather than a mere misstep and a cycle bottom that lounges even lower than the latest chorus had promised.
The Jereh fiasco-the granddaddy of recent unlicensed gold platform failures in China-has turned into a full-blown circus. Investors are refusing a repayment scheme that offers them pennies on the yuan, and let’s just say they’re not exactly rolling out the red carpet for it.
‘This is absolutely INSANE.’
And what’s the catalyst for this financial freefall? Oh, just a little thing called rising U.S.-Iran tensions. Because nothing says “risk aversion” like geopolitical drama. Ethereum [ETH] took a nosedive toward the $2300 level, and leverage-that trusty amplifier of misery-kicked in, liquidating a cool $1.1 billion in ETH positions. All part of a $2.5 billion market-wide wipeout. Fun times!
