Strategy bought 811 Bitcoin for $65.5 million, bringing its total holdings to 849,327 BTC, according to Cointelegraph’s November 2, 2026 report published at 13:08 UTC. The purchase adds roughly 0.1% to the company’s previously held Bitcoin.
The reported expenditure covers the latest acquisition. The holdings total includes the Bitcoin Strategy had already accumulated, so the two figures need to be read against different starting points.
An 811-BTC Addition to an 848,516-BTC Starting Position
Subtracting the reported purchase from the new total puts Strategy’s holdings immediately before the addition at 848,516 BTC. The 811 BTC purchased represents approximately 0.096% of that starting balance. At that scale, a $65.5 million acquisition changes the reserve only incrementally: Bitcoin acquired before the latest transaction accounts for almost all of the reported total.
CryptoPotato’s headline gives the purchase as 810 BTC, one fewer than Cointelegraph’s 811 BTC. This article uses Cointelegraph’s figure, which also matches the BitcoinNews and WuBlockchain reports supplied for this article.
The purchase documents continued buying. Establishing whether Strategy has accelerated its buying would require a comparable series of purchases over defined periods. A single acquisition cannot establish that trend, regardless of its dollar value. The percentage increase measures this purchase against the existing reserve; it does not measure how the pace of purchases has changed over time.
The Purchase Implies About $80,765 Per Bitcoin
Dividing the reported $65.5 million expenditure by 811 BTC produces an implied average purchase price of approximately $80,765 per coin. This is a calculation from rounded headline figures, so it should be read as an approximation.
That average applies only to the 811 BTC in this purchase. Applying it to all 849,327 BTC would treat the latest acquisition price as though it covered the company’s entire purchase history. The reported figures do not provide the prices paid for the Bitcoin already held.
The $65.5 million represents acquisition spending. A current valuation of the new coins or a calculation of profit would require additional information and a defined valuation time. The headline figures also leave the funding source unspecified and do not establish the return earned by shareholders. They allow the size and approximate price of the purchase to be calculated without a forecast of Bitcoin’s price.
Overview
Strategy’s reported $65.5 million purchase added 811 BTC to its reserve, increasing holdings by approximately 0.1% to 849,327 BTC. The purchase implies an average acquisition price of about $80,765 per Bitcoin, calculated from rounded headline figures.
