Fact Check
The claim is strongly supported by the official Strategy X post announcing the purchase and by Michael Saylor's corroborating X post. Both give the exact figures in the claim: 3,273 BTC bought for about $255.0 million at about $77,906 per bitcoin, with total holdings reaching 818,334 BTC as of 4/26/2026. Both posts link to the official Strategy press release titled "Strategy Acquires 3,273 BTC and Now Holds 818,334 BTC," which matches the claim. Bitcoin.com independently reports the same figures. Although the Strategy press page itself could not be fetched due to a 403 error in this run, the official linked social posts provide direct primary-source confirmation.
