MicroStrategy Continues Bitcoin Acquisition Despite Market Fluctuations
Table of content
MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor, continues to strategically increase its bitcoin holdings despite current market fluctuations. Over the past 12 weeks, the company has been actively acquiring BTC, with the latest purchase including 1,142 BTC worth over $90 million. This brings their total holdings to 714,644 BTC, valued at over $49 billion at current market prices.
The company’s approach is to buy bitcoin in a weak market. This allows them to lower the average purchase price and expand future earning opportunities. Critics point out the risk of this method during market downturns. Nevertheless, proponents believe such an accumulation approach leads to increased long-term returns.
A broad overview shows that the treasury sector in the crypto industry is facing challenges. For instance, according to Standard Chartered Bank, notable players have encountered their mNAV (market net asset value) falling below 1, indicating the difficulty of raising capital.
Following one of the market corrections, MicroStrategy faced $12.4 billion in losses in the fourth quarter, leading to a temporary 15% drop in stock price. However, a recent rebound raised their value to $133.80 per share.
At mid-week, bitcoin was trading around $68,000, showing a short-term calm after previous declines. Geopolitical concerns in the Middle East briefly lowered the rate to less than $78,000, prompting investors to reconsider their risk positions.
Continued purchasing behavior by MicroStrategy demonstrates their confidence in bitcoin’s long-term prospects. However, such asset concentration carries significant risks. Large losses and stock price declines indicate how sensitive the business can be during market downturns.
