MicroStrategy Shares Surge 15% Following Saylor’s Huge Prediction

As a seasoned researcher with a keen interest in both traditional finance and the burgeoning world of cryptocurrencies, I find myself intrigued by the recent surge in MicroStrategy’s shares and the growing influence of Bitcoin.


In simple terms, the stocks of MicroStrategy, a business intelligence company, experienced a significant increase of approximately 16% and peaked at over $212 per share during trading today.

The company’s market cap has now swelled to nearly $43 billion following the recent price surge. 

Today, Michael Saylor, co-founder of MicroStrategy, stirred conversations on social media, suggesting that vehicles of the future might run on Bitcoin. Notably, this claim was made as Tesla unveiled their much-anticipated robotaxi presentation, which unfortunately fell short of expectations.

As a crypto investor, I’m aware that MicroStrategy currently holds a staggering $15.8 billion in Bitcoin based on the latest available data.

On Friday, the value of Bitcoin rose back up to $63,000, a significant achievement, and a triumph for those who believe it will continue to rise. Over the last day, Bitcoin has experienced a notable increase of approximately 6%.

The company’s shares are up a whopping 231% on a year-to-date basis, substantially outperforming Bitcoin.
