Michael Sailor, co-founder of Strategy, has reposted "Back to work, $BTC" in his account at X, which is traditionally perceived by the market as a signal about the upcoming purchase of Bitcoin.

Interestingly, just a few days earlier, the management of the firm did not rule out the possibility of selling part of the cryptocurrency reserves to cover dividend payments. Strategy’s most recent replenishment of its Bitcoin coins was on April 27, when it purchased 3,273 coins for approximately $255 million. Currently 818,334 BTC (about $61.8 billion) in the company’s portfolio. The average entry price is $75,537, and the portfolio’s current return is about 7.6%.

Chief of Strategy Fong Le clarified: sales of Bitcoin are possible only in strictly defined situations - for the payment of dividends and deferrals of tax payments. According to his assurances, these transactions will not have a significant impact on the market, since the average daily trading volume of Bitcoin exceeds $60 billion. By comparison, Strategy’s annual dividend liabilities amount to just $1.5 billion. In addition, the company controls roughly 4% of all Bitcoin emissions - not enough to cause a major price collapse.
