After experiencing weeks of moderate Bitcoin acquisitions, Michael Saylor’s firm, Strategy, declared a significant investment strategy by announcing the purchase of 8,178 Bitcoin for around $835 million. This notable acquisition marks a stark increase compared to the previous purchase range of 400 to 500 BTC per week.
