Claims have surfaced of Michael Saylor’s Strategy acquiring 22,305 Bitcoin worth $2 billion, but without verified primary sources, these reports remain unconfirmed by official channels as of January 2026.

The rumored Bitcoin purchase has triggered market discussions about potential impacts on BTC prices and corporate leverage strategies. However, immediate tangible effects on the cryptocurrency market remain unclear.

MicroStrategy, a prominent player in the cryptocurrency market, recently dismissed widespread reports suggesting a massive $2 billion Bitcoin purchase. The company reaffirmed its cryptocurrency holdings and strategies, dispelling market speculations.

While rumors of a $2 billion Bitcoin acquisition by MicroStrategy created a stir in financial circles, the company has clearly stated that no such purchase has taken place. This development highlights the importance of verified information in the volatile cryptocurrency market.

MicroStrategy Maintains Its Bitcoin Holdings

Reports indicating a $2 billion Bitcoin purchase by Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy circulated but lacked verification. Official data shows holdings at 709,715 BTC, acquired at an average cost per BTC.

MicroStrategy, led by Chairman Michael Saylor, did not execute a 22,305 BTC transaction. Market expectations of an acquisition were not met according to primary resources like Forbes and CoinDesk.

The report’s circulation did not immediately impact BTC prices or tradable assets. Industry observers were initially skeptical about such large-scale purchase claims on platforms like Twitter.

The current Bitcoin reserve, documented on MicroStrategy’s site, totals approximately $53,924 million. No new funding initiatives concerning the rumored acquisition are noted in available official data.

Although speculative buying suggested market shifts, previous large acquisitions noted price impacts. Historical patterns have reflected price rallies of 10-20% post-purchase.

Regulatory bodies have not commented on purchase claims. The financial community observes Saylor’s commitment to Bitcoin strategy but awaits credible information for verifying such large purchases.

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

The post Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto assets send conflicting signals ahead of the Federal Reserve’s September rate decision. On-chain data reveals a clear decrease in Bitcoin and Ethereum flowing into centralized exchanges, but a sharp increase in altcoin inflows. The findings come from a Tuesday report by CryptoQuant, an on-chain data platform. The firm’s data shows a stark divergence in coin volume, which has been observed in movements onto centralized exchanges over the past few weeks. Bitcoin and Ethereum Inflows Drop to Multi-Month Lows Sponsored Sponsored Bitcoin has seen a dramatic drop in exchange inflows, with the 7-day moving average plummeting to 25,000 BTC, its lowest level in over a year. The average deposit per transaction has fallen to 0.57 BTC as of September. This suggests that smaller retail investors, rather than large-scale whales, are responsible for the recent cash-outs. Ethereum is showing a similar trend, with its daily exchange inflows decreasing to a two-month low. CryptoQuant reported that the 7-day moving average for ETH deposits on exchanges is around 783,000 ETH, the lowest in two months. Other Altcoins See Renewed Selling Pressure In contrast, other altcoin deposit activity on exchanges has surged. The number of altcoin deposit transactions on centralized exchanges was quite steady in May and June of this year, maintaining a 7-day moving average of about 20,000 to 30,000. Recently, however, that figure has jumped to 55,000 transactions. Altcoins: Exchange Inflow Transaction Count. Source: CryptoQuant CryptoQuant projects that altcoins, given their increased inflow activity, could face relatively higher selling pressure compared to BTC and ETH. Meanwhile, the balance of stablecoins on exchanges—a key indicator of potential buying pressure—has increased significantly. The report notes that the exchange USDT balance, around $273 million in April, grew to $379 million by August 31, marking a new yearly high. CryptoQuant interprets this surge as a reflection of…
