Strategy has stacked over $60 billion in Bitcoin, but its weekly buys have been relatively small of late. However, with Bitcoin falling to a six-month low price last week, the firm said Monday that it bought the dip and added a sizable chunk of BTC.

Founder and Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said Monday that Strategy added $835 million worth of Bitcoin over the last week. It’s not helping the company’s dwindling stock price, however, which is down almost 3% on the day to bring its monthly loss to 33%.
