Strategy plans to accumulate 1 million Bitcoin by the end of 2026
The largest publicly traded corporate holder of Bitcoin would need to purchase approximately 6,158 BTC per week to reach its target. In recent months, however, the company has often demonstrated even higher purchasing rates.
It is possible that Strategy (MSTR) could become the owner of 1 million Bitcoin — or nearly 5% of the total 21 million BTC that will ever exist — by the end of 2026.
The company currently holds 738,731 BTC, meaning it needs to acquire another 261,269 BTC to reach its goal. There are approximately 297 days, or about 42 weeks, remaining until the end of 2026. This means the company would need to purchase around 6,158 BTC per week on average.
At an average Bitcoin price of $85,000, Strategy would need to allocate about $523 million per week, or roughly $22.2 billion in total, to reach 1 million BTC by the end of the year.
Under the leadership of Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, the company has already demonstrated acquisition rates sufficient to achieve this target. Just last week, Strategy purchased 17,994 BTC.
Purchases for the current week (data likely to be released on Monday) will probably also amount to several thousand Bitcoin.
The issuance of STRC preferred shares from Monday to Thursday could indicate the purchase of up to 11,000 BTC. This does not include the issuance of common shares, which may also have enabled the company to purchase several thousand more Bitcoin.
In the long term, since launching its Bitcoin treasury strategy in August 2020, Strategy has purchased on average about 10,700 BTC per month, equivalent to roughly 128,000 BTC per year.
In 2026 alone, the company has already acquired about 64,948 BTC, which significantly exceeds its historical annual accumulation rate.
