Michael Saylor's MicroStrategy bought 6,455 $4 over the last five weeks, according to a Friday $4.
The purchases were made at an average price of about $23,238 per token, and totaled roughly $150 million.
Crypto investments are not new for MicroStrategy, and Saylor frequently touts bitcoin from his Twitter account.
The recent acquisitions bring the software company's holdings up to 138,955 bitcoins, per $4, bought at an average price of $29,817 each.
All together, those holdings are worth about $3.88 billion, at the current bitcoin price of about $27,900.
MicroStrategy's latest crypto buying spree comes as bitcoin has $4. After a dismal 2022, the token is up about 62% year-to-date.
Last week, the token $4 as Credit Suisse's takeover by UBS failed to ease fears about the global banking system.
Cryptocurrencies across the board are notching gains. Ethereum is up about 42% year-to-date, and Solana is up about 51% in 2023.
Meanwhile, per the SEC filing, MicroStrategy also paid off the remaining principal on a $205 million loan from failed, crypto-friendly bank Silvergate, which shut down its operations earlier this month. The total MicroStrategy paid was $161 million.
As part of the satisfaction of the loan, 34,619 bitcoins that were held as collateral were returned to Saylor's firm, the filing said.
"MicroStrategy repaid its $205M Silvergate loan at a 22% discount," Saylor $4 on Monday.
