MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin Bet Pays Off

MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin Bet Pays Off

MicroStrategy's bold foray into Bitcoin has yielded remarkable returns, with its holdings now valued at over $20 billion as Bitcoin's price surged past $80,000.

The company’s 252,200 BTC, acquired at an average price of $39,292, reflects a return on investment exceeding 100%.

Since its initial Bitcoin purchase in August 2020, MicroStrategy has consistently expanded its holdings, executing 42 acquisitions to date. This aggressive accumulation strategy has solidified its position as the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, far outpacing other entities. For instance, Marathon Digital and Riot Platforms hold approximately $2.1 billion and $840 million in Bitcoin, respectively.

New 21-21 Plan Targets $42 Billion for Bitcoin Acquisition

MicroStrategy recently launched a bold 21-21 strategic plan to secure $42 billion in capital by 2027. The company aims to split this evenly, gathering $21 billion through equity and $21 billion in fixed income to expand its Bitcoin holdings. By implementing the largest ATM equity program ever, MicroStrategy plans to build a substantial Bitcoin reserve.

The roadmap sets a $10 billion target for 2025, split equally between equity and fixed income. This amount rises to $14 billion in 2026 and reaches $18 billion in 2027. A staggered schedule allows the company to balance interest costs effectively, switching between equity and debt funding as necessary.

MicroStrategy’s unwavering commitment to Bitcoin underscores its belief in the cryptocurrency’s long-term potential. By continually increasing its holdings and planning substantial future investments, the company positions itself as a leading advocate for Bitcoin’s role in the global financial landscape.
