Bitcoins acquired through proceeds from debt activities that occurred after the issuance of our senior secured notes, namely the two recent convertible note issuances in Q1, are held at MicroStrategy, the parent, and also serve as collateral securing our 2028 senior secured notes. So, you know, the sales were programmatic.
Second, we have a liability-sensitive balance sheet heading into a falling rate environment. The decline in benchmark rates as the Fed continues to move rates lower will be a tailwind over the medium term given the liability-sensitive nature of our balance sheet. We believe these actions will result in lower losses over time.
On Slide 21, as of October 31st, we now hold a total of 158,400 Bitcoins, of which 15,886 Bitcoins are held at MicroStrategy the parent and are pledged as collateral securing our 2028 notes. We actively monitor our capital structure and are constantly evaluating, liability management opportunities to manage and prepare for all upcoming debt.

Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans increased 15 basis points in the quarter due primarily to a large collateralized information credit. With respect to our guidance of 35 basis points to 45 basis points, in the period of 2014 to 2019, our average charge-offs were 38 basis points. And so, I'm pretty comfortable there.
In 2023, we generated almost $2 billion of net cash from operating activities, which included $500 million return of cash collateral. From 2014 to 2019, we successfully delevered by over three turns. Please see our Terms and Conditions for additional details, including our Obligatory Capitalized Disclaimers of Liability.
During the quarter, we received approximately $500 million of cash collateral back from a credit card processor. This collateral release not only provided a meaningful increase to liquidity but was also a very strong signal that our external partners have increased confidence in our financial position and future outlook.
On liabilities, cost of funds decreased 5 basis points within the quarter, driven by our pricing actions on deposit products throughout the first half of the year. And we expect less severity pressure given the front book was underwritten below the peak in collateral values and with lower LTVs.
