Strategy Shares Snapped Up by Investors, Daily Trading Volume Surpasses Rp18 Trillion

Jakarta, VIVA – Shares of Strategy (MSTR), the company with the world’s largest Bitcoin reserves, suddenly became the focus of the market after recording a surge in daily trading volume to US$1.1 billion, or approximately Rp18.84 trillion (estimated exchange rate of Rp17,130 per US dollar), on Tuesday, 14 April 2026.

The increase in daily trading volume came shortly after its owner, Michael Saylor, purchased 13,927 Bitcoins worth around US$1 billion, or approximately Rp17.1 trillion. This transaction added to Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings, bringing them to 780,897 BTC.

Matthew Sigel, Head of Digital Assets Research at VanEck, assessed that this surge is potentially directly related to Strategy’s Bitcoin purchase. The buying momentum further strengthens the narrative that the STRC instrument is used as one of the funding channels for aggressive Bitcoin expansion.

Saylor reinforced this speculation by mentioning the liquidity in the transaction. The combination of high liquidity and low volatility indicates that the trade was conducted in a measured manner, which typically reflects institutional investor activity rather than retail.

“Liquidity reached US$1.156 billion. Volatility one cent,” he wrote, quoted from Yahoo Finance on Tuesday, 14 April 2026.

Market participants estimate that funds flowing into Bitcoin amount to around US$600 million to US$700 million. Some projections even estimate that STRC volume could potentially break through US$1 billion again in the near future if historical patterns continue.

“It could exceed more than US$1 billion tomorrow,” said Market Analyst Taiki Maeda.

Along with the improvement in crypto market sentiment, the flow of funds into digital assets is said to be increasing after previously being in a bearish phase. This situation opens up new accumulation opportunities by large investors, where Bitcoin has recently tested lower levels.

On the other hand, the STRC volume surge also attracted attention because its portion approached the trading volume of MicroStrategy’s main shares. This situation is a rare phenomenon.

The company’s management confirmed the accumulation of a 46.5 percent surge in trading volume. Saylor’s action also triggered a drastic surge in free trading volume of STRC shares worth US$772.9 million.

“What’s happening with STRC/MSTR is truly mind-boggling. STRC is at 66 percent of MSTR’s daily trading volume,” wrote @AdamBLiv on X.
