#StrategyAdds1550BTCatLowerPrices
Michael Saylor's Cleverness in Applying the "Sell High, Buy Low" Theory
Michael Saylor continues to prove his reputation as one of the most aggressive and opportunistic Bitcoin investors in the crypto market. After facing criticism for selling 32 Bitcoin at the end of May 2026, the founder of Strategy actually took advantage of the market correction to make a massive accumulation at much lower prices.
Recent data shows that Strategy sold 32 BTC between May 26 and May 31, 2026, at an average price of around $77,135 per Bitcoin. The transaction generated about $2.5 million and was the company's first Bitcoin sale since 2022.
However, just a few days later, when the crypto market experienced pressure and Bitcoin prices sharply corrected, Strategy re-entered the market. From June 1 to June 7, 2026, the company bought 1,550 BTC worth approximately $101.3 million at an average price of only $65,332 per Bitcoin.
In comparison, the selling price of 32 BTC was about $11,803 higher than the latest average purchase price. This difference shows that Strategy successfully sold a small portion of its holdings when prices were relatively high, then exploited market panic to increase its Bitcoin reserves significantly when prices were lower.
This move also dispelled concerns among some market participants who thought the sale of 32 BTC was a signal that Strategy was starting to abandon its Bitcoin accumulation strategy. In fact, the amount of Bitcoin repurchased was nearly 50 times greater than the amount sold.
Currently, Strategy holds 845,256 BTC valued at tens of billions of dollars, making it the largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder in the world. This latest acquisition further cements Michael Saylor's position as one of the figures who continues to leverage market volatility to expand his exposure to the world's largest digital asset.
