MicroStrategy Boosts Bitcoin Investments Amid Price Decline

Cryptocurrencies have experienced double-digit losses due to Bitcoin’s price drop. However, one of the largest Bitcoin supporters is not giving up and is taking further action.

Recent Bitcoin Developments

MicroStrategy recently announced the acquisition of an additional 5,262 BTC at an average price of $106,662, totaling a value of $561 million. Bitcoin was at satisfactory levels early last week but lost ground rapidly following Powell’s speech.

MicroStrategy's Decision

Rather than selling off, MicroStrategy continues to purchase BTC at six-figure prices. Michael Saylor shared the following on his account:

MicroStrategy purchased ~5,262 BTC for ~ $106,662 each, yielding a QTD return of 47.4% and YTD return of 73.7%. As of 22.12.24, we hold ~444,262 BTC worth approximately $27.7 billion at an average price of ~ $62,257 per Bitcoin.Michael Saylor

Market Impact

The typical outcome of such announcements usually leads to a price drop. BTC fell to $96,000, and the purchase by MSTR triggered another short-term decline. However, historical data shows that the points where the company made purchases have often served as significant support levels, suggesting that $106,000 may soon become a new support level.

Despite the drop in Bitcoin prices, MicroStrategy remains confident in its strategy, acquiring additional assets and contributing to the formation of new support levels in the market.
