Following the recent crypto market sell-off, Bitcoin slipped below $95K, its lowest in a month, sparking a wave of online rumors that Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy sold over $1 billion in BTC to cut losses. But how accurate are those claims?
Here is an in-depth fact-check to clarify the situation.
The claim was first magnified by crypto influencers and on-chain trackers highlighting wallet activity attributed to “Strategy (Prev. MicroStrategy).” The attached chart shows over a dozen large Bitcoin transactions in recent hours, some worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars.
This data led to speculation that Strategy and Michael Saylor himself were selling off their Bitcoin position. But are these claims supported by facts?
So what’s really happening?
1. Strategy Is Still Accumulating — Not Selling
According to verified financial media and Strategy’s own disclosures, there have been no reports, SEC filings, or company statements confirming any BTC sale in 2025. On the contrary, Strategy has recently continued buying Bitcoin, adding 487 BTC on November 10, and 397 BTC the week before.
Their total holdings now approach 641,692 BTC worth over $65 billion as of mid-November 2025.
2. Large Transfers Aren’t Proof of Sales
Bitcoin’s on-chain data shows wallet activity linked to Strategy, but these movements don’t confirm any selling. Arkham Intelligence platform noted that Strategy has been moving billions of dollars of BTC as part of what appears to be a change in custodians for some of their Bitcoin.
So far, no on-chain or exchange evidence shows that these transfers resulted in actual Bitcoin sales.
3. Saylor’s Public Stance Remains Bullish
No public filings, press releases, or major financial media outlets have reported a sale of Bitcoin by Strategy in 2025. On the contrary, filings show a pattern of consistent accumulation.
Michael Saylor continues to champion Bitcoin publicly, predicting dramatic long-term price increases and reiterating a “never sell” approach.
