Breaking: MicroStrategy Bags 122 Bitcoin To Expand Its Portfolio

As a researcher with a background in finance and technology, I find MicroStrategy’s bold move into Bitcoin an intriguing development. The company’s consistent acquisition of Bitcoin units, even during market fluctuations, is a testament to its belief in the long-term potential of the cryptocurrency.


In the month of April, MicroStrategy, a business intelligence and software firm, purchased approximately $7.8 million worth of 122 additional Bitcoin units.

MicroStrategy Keeps Growing Its BTC Portfolio

Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy revealed that the latest purchase has increased their Bitcoin holdings to a grand total of 214,400 units. This update came in conjunction with the company’s Q1 earnings report. According to the disclosed information, all Bitcoin acquisitions were made at an average price point of $35,180 per unit.

I, as an analyst, can rephrase that statement as follows: “Since the end of the last quarter, we have purchased an additional 25,250 bitcoins, marking our 14th consecutive quarter of increasing our bitcoin holdings.”

As a crypto investor, I can tell you that Andrew Kang’s explanation resonated with me. He emphasized how our Bitcoin strategy, unique operating structure, and relentless pursuit of technological innovation have all played crucial roles in generating value for our stakeholders.

In March, according to a report from Coingape, MicroStrategy added 9,245 Bitcoins to its holdings, bringing its total to 214,246 BTC. This number later grew to 214,278 BTC. Based on current figures, the company bought approximately 122 Bitcoin units in April, increasing its overall Bitcoin ownership to around 214,400 units.

MicroStrategy Still In Profit With Bitcoin Price Dip

As a cryptocurrency analyst, I’d like to share some insights based on the current market situation. At present, the flagship cryptocurrency is priced at $63,002.57, representing a 0.99% decrease over the past 24 hours. Although this price is lower than its all-time high of over $73,000 in mid-March, MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings still show profitability with this current pricing.

By March 31, 2024, the market worth of MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings amounted to an impressive $15.220 billion. In contrast, their initial investment cost was only $7.535 billion. Given this substantial profit, MicroStrategy has no intention of disposing of its Bitcoin hoard.

I’ve observed firsthand how the introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the market has led to substantial price growth for Bitcoin since their approval by the SEC in January. These ETFs have ignited a surge in institutional demand for Bitcoin and paved the way for more regulatory clarity, as per my analysis.
