Strategy Inc. Defies Bearish Sentiment with $264M Bitcoin Buy Amid Market Indecision

Breaking News: The “Saylor” Strategy Continues

In a move that has polarized Wall Street, Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy) announced yesterday, January 26, that it has acquired an additional 2,932 Bitcoin for approximately $264 million. This brings their total holdings to a staggering 712,647 BTC.

 

Market Tension: Indecision at $88,250

Despite the massive corporate buy-in, Bitcoin has struggled to hold gains above $88,250.

  • CME Futures Influence: The market saw a brief 2% rally alongside the CME futures open, but the bullish momentum faded as “risk-off” sentiment lifted precious metals (Gold recently topped $5,000/oz).

  • Corporate Risk: While Strategy Inc. remains the world’s largest corporate holder, critics point to the company’s stock volatility—which has seen significant fluctuations since July—as a warning sign of over-leveraged crypto exposure.

The GCHAM Conclusion

The current market is in a “wait-and-see” mode. With Bitcoin range-bound near $90,000, the next major move will likely depend on the finalized U.S. regulatory framework and the pace of institutional ETF inflows.
