) acquisitions.
As part of the agreement deal, dubbed the “ATM Program,” Strategy expects to make sales “in a disciplined manner over an extended period,” taking into account the trading price and volumes of the perpetual strike preferred stock at the time of sale.
“Strategy intends to use the net proceeds from the ATM Program for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of Bitcoin and for working capital,” the firm said in the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The announcement comes amid https://cointelegraph.com/news/strategy-bitcoin-stash-up-7-billion-500k-btc-holdings
($41.2 billion), which it acquired for an aggregate amount of $33.1 billion at an average price of $66,423 per BTC.

Strategy founder Michael Saylor has proposed that the United States government acquire up to 25% of Bitcoin’s total supply over the next decade for its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
“Acquire 5-25% of the Bitcoin network in trust for the nation through consistent, programmatic daily purchases between 2025 and 2035, when 99% of all BTC will have been issued,” Saylor https://www.michael.com/a-digital-assets-strategy
in a document titled “A Digital Assets Strategy to Dominate the 21st Century Global Economy.”
Saylor reiterates to the US government, “Never sell your Bitcoin”
Saylor presented the document to US President Donald Trump, government executives, and global crypto leaders at the https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-investors-mixed-reactions-white-house-crypto-summit
.
He explained that the government should stick to a “Never sell your Bitcoin” policy, predicting that by 2045, the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve could generate over $10 trillion annually and serve as a “perpetual source of prosperity” for Americans.
Up until 2045, Saylor said the Reserve could generate between $16 trillion and $81 trillion for the US Treasury, potentially easing the national debt.
