Fact Check
WSJ reporting and CNBC's May 2026 article both confirm Strategy has shifted from a strict 'never sell' Bitcoin posture and may sell holdings to meet obligations and support shareholder value. Phong Le's direct comments on Fox Business (May 28, 2026), summarized by Wu Blockchain, align with the claim: the company still aims to accumulate Bitcoin overall but may sell when accretive to long-term shareholder value. The DeItaone post citing WSJ reinforces the solvency framing.
Summary

Strategy says its long-term approach remains centered on accumulating Bitcoin, but it may also sell some holdings on a shorter-term basis if needed to meet financial obligations and support long-term shareholder value. In a May 28, 2026 Fox Business interview, CEO Phong Le said the company could make week-to-week or day-to-day decisions, including selling Bitcoin, while The Wall Street Journal reported that Strategy may need to use part of its Bitcoin holdings as a source of liquidity to remain solvent. No figures, timing, or transaction details were provided.
