While Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins have shown sideways movement in recent days, treasury companies continue their purchases.

Firstly, Strategy, the world’s largest publicly traded Bitcoin holder, also made purchases this week.

According to a statement by Strategy founder Michael Saylor, Strategy purchased an additional 334 Bitcoin. This brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 848,000 BTC. The company also repurchased STRC preferred shares worth $176 million.

Saylor noted that Strategy also holds $5.7 billion in assets, adding that the company’s dollar-denominated assets could cover current preferred stock dividends and interest payments for approximately 3.6 years.

Besides Strategy, Strive also made a BTC purchase. Accordingly, Strive announced that it bought an additional 2,000 Bitcoin worth $169 million. With this purchase, Strive’s total Bitcoin holdings reportedly increased to 29,462 BTC. The average purchase price was stated to be $84,422 per Bitcoin.

Strive CEO Matt Cole announced that 61.5% of the acquisition funds came from SATA, while $56.7 million was raised through stock options.

Ethereum Purchases Continue!

Bitmine, the world’s largest holder of Ethereum, also announced last week that it purchased an additional 15,112 ETH, bringing its total holdings to 6,016,414 ETH. According to the announcement, this represents 4.9% of the total circulating ETH supply.

The official statement also noted that Bitmine’s total assets, including cryptocurrency, cash, marketable securities, and strategic investment assets, have reached $17.4 billion.

This figure includes 6 million ETH, 214 Bitcoin, $643 million in cash and marketable securities, $180 million worth of Beast Industries shares, and $117 million worth of Eightco Holdings shares.

Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee stated, “We believe cryptocurrencies have entered what we perceive as a bull market cycle. Last week, we acquired 15,112 ETH. Bitmine’s consistent success in purchasing cryptocurrencies is unparalleled by any publicly traded company in the world. Bitmine has purchased ETH every week since the launch of its ETH Treasury Strategy on June 30, 2025.”

Bitcoin Returns Reliant on Major Days -- Market Talk

1105 ET - Bitcoin's strong year-over-year returns are more linked to single days of strong moves, according to Zach Pandl of Grayscale in a note. Pandl says removing bitcoin's five best trading days reduces its three-year return from 225% to 95%, with the return falling to 27% without its 10 best days. If you remove the top fifteen days, it turns a three-year gain into an 11% loss. By comparison, removing the Nasdaq's fifteen best days reduces its cumulative return from 109% to 21%. "Given BTC's return and volatility profile, investors looking for long-term capital appreciation can avoid trying to time the market and instead seek consistent, long-term exposure to the asset," Pandl says. Bitcoin is down 0.2% to $85,610, while ethereum falls 0.2% to $2,701. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com) (END) Dow Jones Newswires October 05, 2026 11:05 ET (15:05 GMT)
