The purchase is larger than the week before, when Strategy resumed buying with 811 BTC for $65.5 million after a one-week pause.

Strategy also bought back 1,887,464 shares of STRC, its variable-rate preferred stock, for $188.3 million, down from $208.2 million the previous week. It funded both the Bitcoin and the buyback by selling 2,051,348 shares of MSTR stock for $283.8 million in net proceeds, with the remaining $13.6 million going to its USD Cash account.

That marks a change from last week, when Strategy paid for its STRC buyback from USD Cash, drawing the balance down to $132.7 million. With the new proceeds, USD Cash rose to $146.2 million as of November 8.

Strategy's separate USD Reserve, which covers dividends on its preferred stock and interest on its debt, stood at $4.77 billion after it paid out $21.1 million in preferred dividends during the week. About $560.3 million remains available under its preferred stock repurchase program, and $1 billion under its program for buying back MSTR stock.
