Michael Saylor emphasized his confidence: 'Bitcoin’s potential is growing, and this strategy forms our foundation.'
Market Position and Bitcoin Performance

Nonetheless, MicroStrategy sees these developments as opportunities to advance its long-term goals and remains committed to its Bitcoin strategy.
