The latest figures place the reserve at $4.65 billion with approximately 2.7 years of duration.<\/p>\n<p>Over that period, the company added nearly $3.8 billion to the reserve, substantially expanding liquidity available for preferred dividends and interest obligations. The rapid increase coincides with a broader capital-management approach that includes equity issuance, preferred securities and bitcoin monetization.<\/p>\n<p>Le stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOur USD Reserve and Duration are now at all-time highs. In 2.5 months, we added nearly $3.8 billion and grew both more than 5X.

During the Aug. 3-Aug. 9 period, the company also sold 1,690 BTC for $108.6 million and used the proceeds to repurchase STRC shares.<\/p>\n<h2>Reserve Grows From $871 Million to $4.65 Billion<\/h2>\n<p>The latest balance represents an increase from $871 million in late May, a gain of nearly $3.8 billion that pushed both reserve size and duration to record levels.<\/p>\n<p>By July 27, Strategy had <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/strategy-adds-525m-to-usd-reserve-pushing-dividend-coverage-to-2-1-years\/\">increased its USD reserve to $3.75 billion<\/a> after adding $525 million, providing about 2.1 years of dividend and interest coverage. The reserve increase also coincided with a $25 million STRC repurchase, before the balance subsequently reached $4 billion and then climbed to the latest $4.65 billion record.<\/p>\n<p>Strategy established its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.strategy.com\/press\/strategy-announces-digital-credit-capital-framework_06-29-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Digital Credit Capital Framework<\/a> to govern reserve levels, securities repurchases and potential bitcoin monetization. Its board established a minimum USD reserve equal to at least 12 months of expected preferred dividends and interest expenses, unless a lower level receives authorization.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Sale Fits Broader Capital Strategy<\/h2>\n<p>Against the record cash position, the <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/strategy-sells-1690-bitcoin-as-saylor-reloads-its-cash-war-chest\/\">latest 1,690 BTC sale<\/a> shows bitcoin being used selectively within the same broader capital-allocation framework.
