Strategy CEO Says Bitcoin Buy Plan Continues as Reserves and Sales Priorities Shift

Strategy’s CEO Phong Le pushed back on concerns about the company’s recent Bitcoin activity, telling FOX Business that Strategy has remained a net buyer in 2026. He cited company figures showing purchases of about 175,000 BTC since the start of the year versus sales of roughly 7,000 BTC, describing this as approximately a 25x net buying pace ^{[1] [2]}.

Le also said Strategy plans to restart its Bitcoin accumulation later this year, after shifting priorities toward rebuilding its USD reserves and supporting corporate actions. Reports attributed the company’s recent sales to uses such as preferred stock dividends, share repurchases, and building US dollar reserves, with a return to buying scheduled for before year-end ^{[3] [4] [2]}.

Multiple outlets reported Phong Le’s message that Strategy’s earlier sales did not change its overall net-buyer posture for the year, and that Bitcoin purchases are set to resume before 2026 ends ^{[3] [1] [2]}.
