MICROSTRATEGY SECURES $4.6 BILLION IN BITCOIN AS PRICES SOAR TO NEW HEIGHTS

ByDaniel Nwokolo 9 hours ago
0Comments


Popular US-based business intelligence company, MicroStrategy announced on
November 18 that it acquired 51,780 Bitcoin for $4.6 Billion. Notably, the
company kept buying BTC in this previous week even as the token continued to
break its all-time highs.

Speaking on the recent purchase in a post on X, Michael Saylor, Founder and
Chairman at MicroStrategy, highlighted the company’s bold accumulation.



For context, Saylor’s tweet highlights MicroStrategy’s aggressive Bitcoin
accumulation strategy and the company’s belief in BTC as a long-term asset with
the firm paying a striking average price of about $88,627 per Bitcoin ($4.6
billion in total).

Accordingly, this is significantly higher than their overall average acquisition
cost of approximately $49,874 for their total holdings of 331,200 BTC, purchased
for $16.5 billion, according to Michael Saylor.

While this move demonstrates strong confidence in Bitcoin’s value appreciation,
buying at such high prices exposes the company to significant risks if the
market corrects or enters a bearish phase.

Meanwhile, the company chairman also boasts impressive Bitcoin yield figures of
20.4% quarter-to-date (QTD) and 41.8% year-to-date (YTD). In a nutshell, these
returns indicate substantial price appreciation for Bitcoin in 2024, which has
benefited MicroStrategy’s holdings.

However, these yields remain unrealized gains unless the company decides to
liquidate or monetize a portion of its holdings. This underscores the risks of
MicroStrategy’s long-term “HODL” strategy, which ties its financial health and
stock value directly to Bitcoin’s often volatile market performance.

Saylor further discloses that MicroStrategy’s 20.4% QTD BTC yield occurred in
the first half of November, equating to ~51,470 BTC in shareholder benefits,
likely due to Bitcoin’s price surge.



It is noteworthy that this ties closely to their latest acquisition of 51,780
BTC at a high price, suggesting they are capitalizing on bullish momentum.
However, these gains are unrealized and depend on market conditions, reflecting
potential upside and significant risk in their Bitcoin-focused strategy.

Notedly, the company’s significant purchases can influence Bitcoin’s price. This
may partially explain the price appreciation if their acquisitions coincide with
limited supply or high demand.


IMPLICATIONS

MicroStrategy’s massive allocation to Bitcoin, valued at $16.5 billion,
demonstrates institutional confidence in the asset. If Bitcoin continues its
upward trajectory, MicroStrategy’s holdings will increase in value, and the
company could see exponential returns.

Yet, it also reveals a high-risk concentration. To clarify, the firm’s decision
to buy at a premium, as seen in the latest purchase price, may impact its
profitability if Bitcoin’s value does not continue to rise.

Furthermore, this strategy may seem visionary in a bull market, but it leaves
the company highly vulnerable during downturns when unrealized losses could harm
investor sentiment and financial stability.

While the strategy aligns with MicroStrategy’s belief in Bitcoin as a store of
value, its success depends entirely on the  cryptocurrency’s long-term price
trajectory.
