Michael Saylor's long-standing "never sell" Bitcoin refrain drew renewed attention after Strategy disclosed a small but headline-grabbing BTC sale—a move Saylor addressed publicly at BTC Prague. A brief, first sale since 2022 Strategy reported that it sold 32 BTC between May 26 and May 31 for about $2.5 million, or roughly $77,135 per coin on average. It was the company's first disclosed Bitcoin sale since December 2022. The sale represented about 0.0038% of Strategy's Bitcoin holdings at the time—minor in size, but notable for a firm known for continuous accumulation. Saylor's explanation at BTC Prague Speaking onstage at BTC Prague on June 11, Saylor reaffirmed his personal message to retail investors: "I said to YOU never sell your bitcoin." He separated that guidance from corporate treasury management, describing the 32-BTC sale as a company-level financing action rather than a shift in long-term conviction. Why Strategy sold In its June 1 filing, Strategy said proceeds from the sale were intended to help fund preferred-stock distributions. The board declared cash dividends across several preferred share series (STRF, STRC, STRE, STRK, STRD), with STRC carrying an 11.50% annual dividend rate for June. The dividends, in effect, created a short-term liquidity need. Days later: a far larger buy Strategy quickly followed with a substantially bigger purchase. From June 1 through June 7, the company bought 1,550 BTC for about $101.3 million at an average price of $65,332 per coin—nearly 50 times the size of the earlier sale. Strategy said it funded the purchase through its at-the-market share program, while also rebuilding liquidity and lifting its U.S. dollar reserve to $1 billion. Holdings and market read-through Strategy's dashboard now shows 845,256 BTC held at an average acquisition price of $75,680, maintaining its position as the largest public corporate Bitcoin holder. The company remains a net buyer, but the small sale has reshaped perceptions. Investors are weighing whether "never sell" was primarily a slogan aimed at individuals, while Strategy's treasury policy stays pragmatic—including occasional sales to meet dividend or financing obligations. What investors are watching Attention now turns to the June 30 dividend payments and how Strategy plans to fund ongoing preferred-stock commitments: through cash reserves, additional capital markets activity, or intermittent small BTC sales. Saylor's remarks suggest accumulation remains the priority, with liquidity management treated as a separate corporate function—an approach that may reassure some investors while leaving others less convinced about the rigidity of the "never sell" message.

Metaplanet said it has acquired Japanese brokerage Siiibo Securities and renamed it Metaplanet Securities Co., Ltd., a move that gives the company licensed access to traditional securities services as it advances its Bitcoin treasury strategy, CoinDesk reported. Siiibo Securities is a licensed first-class financial instruments business operator in Japan and previously provided corporate bond subscription services to individual investors via an online platform. Metaplanet said it will fold the broker into its ecosystem to underpin future securities services and new financial product offerings, combining conventional securities infrastructure with its cryptocurrency-focused direction. CEO Simon Gerovich said the new Metaplanet Securities will operate under "Project Nova," an initiative aimed at bringing Bitcoin-related financial services to Japan's investment market. The report said Metaplanet plans to use Siiibo's regulatory licenses and digital securities infrastructure to develop Bitcoin-linked yield products for Japanese investors, signaling an expansion beyond simply holding Bitcoin on its balance sheet. Metaplanet is also targeting Japan's large pool of household liquidity. The report cited more than 1,190 trillion yen held in cash deposits and low-yield savings products, which the company hopes to channel into higher-yielding assets. Financial terms, settlement details, and the timing for an initial launch of Bitcoin-related products were not disclosed. The report noted that the information available so far is largely based on company statements and overseas media coverage, and described the deal as Metaplanet's first comprehensive acquisition aimed at expanding its Bitcoin treasury initiative.

SpaceX, the aerospace company led by Elon Musk, has become the world's eighth-largest publicly reported Bitcoin holder. The company's Bitcoin balance totals 18,712 BTC, placing it among the top 10 corporate holders disclosed in public records.

Metaplanet said it acquired a Japanese securities firm for 13 million dollars as it prepares to launch Bitcoin yield products. The company framed the deal as a step to expand regulated financial offerings tied to Bitcoin and to build out its product lineup in Japan.

U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs have generated $1.99 trillion in total trading volume since debuting in January 2024 and are poised to top $2 trillion as soon as Friday, The Block reported, citing ChainThink. BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) continues to lead the market, accounting for 73.7% of all spot Bitcoin ETF trading volume and managing about $49 billion in assets. Total assets under management across the category have climbed above $76 billion. On the flows side, spot Bitcoin ETFs have taken in a cumulative net $53.9 billion since launch. Since Bitcoin hit its record near $126,000 in October last year, the group has logged $7.6 billion in net outflows. Year to date, net outflows total $3 billion, including a recent 13-day streak that saw $4.3 billion pulled. Ethereum spot ETFs have also recorded net outflows of roughly $1.1 billion this year. Bitcoin was recently trading around $63,750, about 50% below its all-time high. In related news, BlackRock on Thursday filed Form 8A with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to finalize registration for the iShares Bitcoin Premium Income ETF. The fund aims to generate income by actively selling options on IBIT shares and a Bitcoin ETP index, and analysts expect a listing in the near term.

Speaking at BTC Prague, Bitwise's André Dragosch said Bitcoin could drop another 20%, citing key downside levels at about $61,000 for the 200 week moving average, $56,000 realized price, and $48,000 long term holder cost basis. He linked recent weakness to about $2 billion in weekly ETP outflows, or roughly 50,000 BTC sold in a short period.

Metaplanet has signed an agreement to acquire all shares of Siiibo Securities, a licensed Japanese securities firm, with closing expected in July, CEO Simon Gerovich said.
