Michael Saylor, Chairman of the Board at Strategy, hinted at the possibility of a major shift in the company’s Bitcoin holdings in a social media post on Sunday. The message came just hours before the final results of a proxy vote concerning dividend payments for STRC preferred shares were released, an issue closely watched by company stakeholders.
Renewed anticipation of Bitcoin acquisition
Saylor accompanied his post on X with a bubble chart illustrating almost six years of the company’s Bitcoin purchases, captioned, “A good time to add more dots.” This chart, produced by Iceland-based StrategyTracker.com, has previously signaled imminent Bitcoin acquisitions in the past, further fueling speculation in the market.
With the phrase “A good time to add more dots,” Michael Saylor further stoked expectations of a fresh Bitcoin purchase.
By Sunday afternoon, Saylor’s post had amassed 2.3 million views. CEO Phong Le also shared the same post from his own account, underlining that the company’s corporate strategy is, and remains, to increase both its net Bitcoin holdings and its Bitcoin-per-share ratio over time. Le dismissed rumors suggesting otherwise as nothing more than market chatter.
Strategy stands out as the public company with the largest Bitcoin holdings, currently sitting on 843,706 BTC. The average acquisition price of these assets is noted at $75,701 per Bitcoin, making the company a closely watched metric for institutional adoption.
Price drop and debt buyback under the spotlight
Should another acquisition be announced, expectations are that it would occur at or below the company’s average cost basis. According to CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin dropped 16.6 percent over the past week, with prices hovering around $62,153 at the time of reporting.

Last week, the company announced a temporary pause in Bitcoin accumulation, citing a buyback of some of its outstanding debt. This move sparked unease among investors, with some speculating that Strategy might be forced to sell part of its Bitcoin stash to finance the buybacks.
STRC dividend structure up for vote
Shareholders were recently asked to approve a proposal to move STRC dividend payments from monthly to bi-monthly. Strategy argued that, if passed, this change would reduce reinvestment delays, support greater liquidity, improve market efficiency, and enhance price stability for its preferred shares.
Mini glossary: The Sharpe ratio measures how much return an investment generates relative to the risk it takes. A higher Sharpe ratio signals a more efficient return profile for the same level of risk.
During the recent Synergy26 conference, Saylor indicated the new structure could dampen volatility, improve the Sharpe ratio, and offer more entry and exit points for investors.
Speaking to licensed investment advisors at last week’s Synergy26 event, Saylor compared Strategy’s proposal to US norms, noting that 24,000 companies pay quarterly and 176 pay monthly dividends. He emphasized that making payments twice a month would set Strategy apart and said the new system could begin as early as June or July.
Decision expected at Monday’s shareholder meeting
Strategy revealed that the proposal needs at least 50 percent approval from the outstanding 85 million shares as of April 17, 2026. The outcome is expected to be clarified at the shareholder meeting scheduled for Monday.
However, participation by retail investors in proxy votes has remained low. A research note from the Harvard Law School Forum on Corporate Governance stated that, over the past five proxy vote cycles, retail investors have cast votes for an average of only 29 percent of the shares they own, compared to about 77 percent for institutional investors.
