▲ Bitcoin (BTC), Strategy (MSTR)/AI-generated image
1,030 BTC of Bitcoin (BTC) moved from a Strategy (MSTR) linked wallet, raising concerns about a potential fourth sale.
According to the cryptocurrency media outlet Bitcoin.com on August 5 (local time), on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain revealed that 1,030 BTC, worth approximately $66.14 million, had moved out of a Strategy-linked wallet. Lookonchain questioned, “Is Strategy selling Bitcoin again?” This amount moved from the wallet approximately two hours before Lookonchain's post.
This movement was detected just days after Strategy disclosed its third sale in 2026. Strategy sold 1,638 BTC for approximately $104.7 million between July 27 and August 2. The average selling price was $63,957 per BTC. Previously, the actual sale was revealed after 299.84 BTC moved from a Strategy-linked wallet.
After completing its third sale, Strategy's holdings decreased to 842,138 BTC. This accounts for approximately 4% of the total supply limit of 21 million BTC. Strategy stated that it used the proceeds from the sale for preferred stock dividend payments and the redemption of preferred stock STRC.
The sale was conducted under a Bitcoin monetization program included in the digital credit capital framework. This program allows for sales of up to $5 billion. Strategy's average purchase price is $75,419 per BTC, with a total purchase cost of approximately $63.5 billion. At the time of writing, the book loss was estimated to be around $10.9 billion.
The movement of these 1,030 BTC has not yet been confirmed as an actual sale. However, as previous wallet movements were followed by sale disclosures within a few days, the market is closely watching for subsequent announcements. The amount recently sold by Strategy, approximately $105 million, is significantly less than the monetization program's maximum limit of $5 billion.
