Strategy secures funds to buy 8,000 Bitcoin, aiming for 10,000 by week’s end

Strategy’s STRC has secured funds to acquire about 8,000 Bitcoin, with potential to reach 10,000 by week’s end. Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by December 31, 2026, is at 34.5% YES, down from 36% yesterday.

Buying 10,000 BTC would push Strategy’s holdings near 777,000 BTC. The Bitcoin $100,000 market dipped slightly, while the Bitcoin $150,000 market sits at 9.5% YES, up from 9% yesterday.

With $2,613 in actual USDC traded daily on the $100,000 market and $877 on the $150,000 market, these are thin books. Order book depth suggests a $2,908 spend could move the $100,000 market 5 points, and $792 could do the same on the $150,000 market.

The purchase matters because it would make Strategy the holder of roughly 777,000 BTC, concentrating a significant share of supply in one corporate treasury. If ETF inflows continue rising alongside this kind of corporate accumulation, the buy-side pressure on Bitcoin compounds. There’s no direct geopolitical trigger here; this is a capital allocation decision by a company that has made Bitcoin its core treasury strategy since 2020.

Watch for announcements from Bitcoin ETFs like BlackRock’s IBIT or regulatory decisions from the SEC. A large ETF inflow week coinciding with Strategy’s purchase would tighten available supply. Any shift in SEC regulatory tone on crypto could also move these markets sharply.
