MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor, sharing the chart, noted that it is easier to replicate MSTR’s success than NVDA’s. The company’s Bitcoin accumulation strategy has significantly contributed to its rising stock value and increased recognition.
Last month, MicroStrategy added 11,931 Bitcoins to its holdings at an average price of $65,883 per Bitcoin, funded by an $800 million convertible notes offering. This acquisition brought their total Bitcoin holdings to 226,331 units, acquired at an average price of $36,798 per BTC, totaling approximately $8.33 billion.
In an intriguing twist, MicroStrategy’s stock growth has outpaced Bitcoin itself. Over the past year, Bitcoin surged by 124.89%, according to CoinMarketCap, while MSTR saw a remarkable 307% increase, as per Google Finance data.
MicroStrategy’s strategic Bitcoin investments have paid off, positioning the company as a standout performer in the stock market and showcasing the potential rewards of a bold and committed investment strategy.
