MicroStrategy has been buying Bitcoin for ten consecutive weeks. Their Bitcoin buying spree continues. They set a record this year as they bought the most bitcoins in 2024. Also today they have created a unique milestone and that is they have already accumulated BTC450,000 bitcoins in their investment portfolio. Maybe nothing will stop them from buying bitcoins and they will continue to buy bitcoins.

Today, they also purchased a total of BTC2,530 bitcoins.

Microstrategy has been one of the firms that has been increasing the Bitcoin adoption by showing others the way it ought to be. The firm focus on accumulating enough Bitcoin which has been increasing their profits as the price of Bitcoin keeps going bull. Microstrategy has been one of the biggest firms that are holding huge sum of Bitcoin and is still ready to buy at any slightest opportunity.
The company could worth 2X by the time the price of Bitcoin hit 200k. The company is in for long term Bitcoin holding which is one of the ways to make huge profits as an investor. The adoption of Bitcoin is increasing and more companies and firms are now seeing a reason to add Bitcoin to their portfolio.

It caught my attention because this week they bought the exact number of bitcoins they were short of 450K. Surely if it had not been so close to that round figure the number of bitcoins purchased would have been somewhat different. Next round figure target is half a million bitcoins.

Saylor in one of his podcast says that "Bitcoin is the superior asset and is going up forever". This clearly show what Bitcoin is to Saylor and he is proving his word by buying more and more Bitcoin despite the fact that Bitcoin price is very high. Microstrategy now has 450k Bitcoin, which makes it the biggest corporate Bitcoin holder who has invested 40 billion $ in Bitcoin. The Microstrategy investment strategy will defiantly encourage other big corporates to come and invest in Bitcoin. Seeing this happening, other corporates will not leave this area open for Microstrategy.

The money management details are not completely clear, yet it seems that he (MSTR) might even be buying fairly early in the week, so by the time they announce how many they bought for the week on Mondy (or preannounce on Sunday), they already know all the details regarding how many they bought and how much the average cost per BTC and the various other details..

By the way, after posting the previous comment I remembered that I read this post of yours when I was logged off and I forgot to reply to you.

In an interview with Saylor I heard him say that they use trading bots and they act throughout the week, so some of what they buy is on weekends or holidays but they are scheduled to act throughout the week.

Some people speculate regarding when Saylor/MSTR are buying to suggest that he is buying on the weekends, and sure I suppose it could be possible that even if some buys might start on Monday, maybe they drag out through the whole week and there could be some lose ends still being wrapped up on Sunday by the time Saylor preannounces so largely by the time Sunday at midnight happens, then that week is over and the next week starts at Monday at 00:01. 

Right. Without knowing more specific details I would venture, as you suggest, that they do not pause as such. Simply at the time of giving the data they take twelve o'clock on Sunday night of the time zone corresponding to the MSTR HQs and on Monday they give the data for the previous week. The latter I say is more speculative on my part but that they use trading bots and that the purchases are spread throughout the week and in the hours of the day I have heard him say.

Microstrategy is setting the record straight by making people to understand that Bitcoin is a good futuristic investment, the keep accumulating Bitcoin having considered what the future holds for bitcoiners, I think microstrategy is one of the major players in bitcoin investment, this smart step of theirs stands as an encouraging factor to anyone doubting the future of of Bitcoin investment, they really understand what long-term investment entails, this institution will be profiting more in the future once Bitcoin make a good appreciation in the future.

I think with this microstrategy idea of continuous acumulation and standing up to opportunities when necessary it shows how future minded they are towards Bitcoin investment.
I think there shouldn't be any excuse by anyone anymore because if microstrategy can add such amount to their holdings then anyone can start doing the needful without considering what the future holds because firm like microstrategy will not continue to invest in an asset that has no future, they would've have involved some financial advisors before considering Bitcoin as a good investment in the first place, as they keep adding more Bitcoin to their portfolio, it will trigger more adoption of Bitcoin individually and institutionally.

I think Microstrategy has changed the perception of people who are not knowledgeable about bitcoin to be more knowledgeable about Bitcoin.
The reason is that they have observed a company that has changed their course by investing in bitcoin into a larger company that brings profit.

The accumulation of bitcoins carried out by saylor / microstrategy has become a guideline for many new companies / investors to invest in bitcoin gradually with DCA.
Saylor has provided many important combinations for novice investors. Recently saylor bought bitcoin again, he continues to accumulate bitcoin when he has money.

Yes MicroStrategy is one of the biggest firms and they already hold a huge amount of Bitcoins. When the price of Bitcoin hits $200K in the future, this company will definitely be worth 2X. Since this company started buying bitcoins since 2020, then their company value has increased every year. This chart clearly states that their stock has increased in value every year since they purchased Bitcoin i.e. since they started investing in Bitcoin. They have buys more amount of Bitcoin in last year, As a result, their stock price increased.

The company "MicroStrategy" is investing in Bitcoin in a long-term plan. They are posting various posts about Bitcoin on their Twitter page almost every day making it clear that they will invest more in Bitcoin in the future and maybe they are investing with a target that they will continue to invest until this target is met. If they keep investing like this, it won't be long before Bitcoin hits $200k. The way they are investing will attract the interest of other companies and they will see other companies regularly buying bitcoins with huge amount of money which is definitely good news for bitcoin investors.

I believe that Chad Saylor will only stop thinking about investing more into Bitcoin if the ratio between MSTR and Bitcoin will go from premium to discount. Michael Saylor, and MSTR holders, still have an opportunity to buy more Bitcoin from capital made by selling MSTR because MSTR is still trading at a premium against Bitcoin. But once it reaches an equilibrium, that opportunity is gone and there might probably a situation when it would be profitable to sell Bitcoin to buy MSTR if MSTR is at a discount against Bitcoin?

I'm merely posting that from a viewpoint of "trading" obviously, not from a viewpoint that "X is more valuable than Y".

I'm merely posting that from a viewpoint of "trading" obviously, not from a viewpoint that "X is more valuable than Y".

Maybe we are saying similar things, yet I am still thinking that it be better to summarize that Saylor/MSTR will keep buying BTC on a weekly and sustainable basis for a certain period of time into the future no matter what (even as long as 1 year into the future no matter what) so long as Saylor/MSTR keeps receiving new money to buy BTC, so in that regard, if the price of MSTR or other kinds of company/personal credibility type measurements go down, then the free (extra/additional) money dries up.   

Saylor/MSTR seems to have had also built up some level of cash reserves that seems to be quite a bit north of $1 billion to strategically continue to buy BTC on a regular basis no matter what for a certain period of time, such as 1 year or some other behind the scenes number of weeks that they do not have to disclose such exact particulars), so that part of the continued buys no matter what might be structured into both what they are saying and what they are doing... They buy no matter what but also the buys go up further if more money comes in and then sinks down to the minimum amount in the event that no new money is coming in.

So the extent to which additional buys happen just relates to whether anyone is giving him (or his company stubbles across) extra money to keep buying BTC... Money dries up, then no more buys, money comes in then additional buys, beyond whatever amounts that he structurally has already set up.

So for example, let me outline this in a kind of hypothetical way that I believe would be completely sustainable up to a year and surely he could do longer or shorter periods, yet let me say that if Saylor were to consider that he/his company has around $520 million in cash reserves that are already set aside and directly allocated for future bitcoin buys, then he can spend $10 million per week for the next 52 weeks with that $10 million per weeks as a minimum budgeted amount for buying bitcoin on a regular, consistent and persistent basis no matter what (and keeps his/MSTRs name in the news every single week with even bare minimum amounts that are not exactly unnewsworthy.. even though surely there might be some chuckles at BTC buys during weeks that end up ONLY being $10 million for the week, but that still is 100 BTC if the price is $100k each and 10 BTC if the price is $1 million each)...

So any new money that comes in would either be used to buy bitcoin right away for that week, or put into that bitcoin allocated reserve (the $520 million fund) or put into another back up cash fund.. .. So new money coming in might automatically get put $10 million in each of the three categories that I mentioned, and if the amount is above $30 million, then any excess beyond $30 million per week would be used to buy BTC right away during that week.   

Sure, I am making up these particulars, but just outlining something like this as an example of a cashflow management way that has a couple categories of reserves that could be designed to be sustainable with assured buys for at least 52 weeks into the future no matter what with $10 million per week minimum and then any additional BTC buys would be based upon new money coming in and mostly erroring on the side of buying BTC as the money comes in once the amount coming in per week is above $30 million..

Even with my particular example, I am thinking that such a way would be completely reasonable and within bare minimum kinds of characteristics that would also allow for buying BTC with whatever new money comes in, yet I kind of get the impression that Saylor/MSTR is way less reasonable and conservative than me, so they may well be spending way beyond what I am suggesting to be sustainable.. yet at the same time, I am just one dumb person on the internet, and Saylor/MSTR has people who are brainstorming these kinds of variations of ideas on a regular basis, so they have pretty damned decently good ideas about ways that they can push in more adventurous ways, but still not be any more risky as a keep buying no matter what system than the for example method that I outlined.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  Resist being labelled as: "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

They buy no matter what but also the buys go up further if more money comes in and then sinks down to the minimum amount in the event that no new money is coming in.
I think so too he has a pretty good cash reserve because he can make large purchases in the near future.
In previous years saylor preferred to buy bitcoin every quarter as he has done. But in the near future he is buying more often every week or every month, of course he has a larger cash reserve to continue executing bitcoin.

I think he remains on principle to continue accumulating bitcoin throughout this year.

Saylor has also given the green light every time he buys bitcoin, he gives a signal to investors when he buys bitcoin.

Why investors are lending MicroStrategy billions of dollars at 0% interest so it can buy bitcoin
Source link: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/why-investors-are-lending-microstrategy-billions-of-dollars-at-0-interest-so-it-can-buy-bitcoin-03f7cacf


MicroStrategy is currently the top investment company, their success is due to investing in Bitcoin alone. However, the most advantageous thing is that the loan that MicroStrategy is currently getting is at 0% percent interest, all the different small companies are voluntarily giving this loan. Small companies all know that the future of Bitcoin is very good, that's why they are giving loans at 0% interest, and they have also gained confidence that they will give more money as they need because they are helping a lot to buy Bitcoin.
However, if it can buy just 50k Bitcoins, it will be able to collect 0.5 million Bitcoins, which is more than almost the entire Bitcoin (at an estimated rate of 2%+). However, MicroStrategy will soon reign supreme in Bitcoin, because they are ready to buy more Bitcoins, they are getting money from different places without interest.

MicroStrategy Buys Bitcoin for 10 Weeks in a Row. Their Bitcoin buying spree continues. They set a record this year as they bought the most bitcoins in 2024. Also today they have created a unique milestone and that is they have already accumulated 0.5 million bitcoins in their investment portfolio. Maybe nothing will stop them from buying bitcoins and they will continue to buy bitcoins.
Microstrategy has been one of the firms that has been increasing the Bitcoin adoption by showing others the way it ought to be. The firm focus on accumulating enough Bitcoin which has been increasing their profits as the price of Bitcoin keeps going bull. Microstrategy has been one of the biggest firms that are holding huge sum of Bitcoin and is still ready to buy at any slightest opportunity.
The company could worth 2X by the time the price of Bitcoin hit 200k. The company is in for long term Bitcoin holding which is one of the ways to make huge profits as an investor. The adoption of Bitcoin is increasing and more companies and firms are now seeing a reason to add Bitcoin to their portfolio.
The company "MicroStrategy" is investing in Bitcoin in a long-term plan. They are posting various posts about Bitcoin on their Twitter page almost every day making it clear that they will invest more in Bitcoin in the future and maybe they are investing with a target that they will continue to invest until this target is met. If they keep investing like this, it won't be long before Bitcoin hits $200k. The way they are investing will attract the interest of other companies and they will see other companies regularly buying bitcoins with huge amount of money which is definitely good news for bitcoin investors.
I believe that Chad Saylor will only stop thinking about investing more into Bitcoin if the ratio between MSTR and Bitcoin will go from premium to discount. Michael Saylor, and MSTR holders, still have an opportunity to buy more Bitcoin from capital made by selling MSTR because MSTR is still trading at a premium against Bitcoin. But once it reaches an equilibrium, that opportunity is gone and there might probably a situation when it would be profitable to sell Bitcoin to buy MSTR if MSTR is at a discount against Bitcoin?

I'm merely posting that from a viewpoint of "trading" obviously, not from a viewpoint that "X is more valuable than Y".

Maybe we are saying similar things, yet I am still thinking that it be better to summarize that Saylor/MSTR will keep buying BTC on a weekly and sustainable basis for a certain period of time into the future no matter what (even as long as 1 year into the future no matter what) so long as Saylor/MSTR keeps receiving new money to buy BTC, so in that regard, if the price of MSTR or other kinds of company/personal credibility type measurements go down, then the free (extra/additional) money dries up.   

Saylor/MSTR seems to have had also built up some level of cash reserves that seems to be quite a bit north of $1 billion to strategically continue to buy BTC on a regular basis no matter what for a certain period of time, such as 1 year or some other behind the scenes number of weeks that they do not have to disclose such exact particulars), so that part of the continued buys no matter what might be structured into both what they are saying and what they are doing... They buy no matter what but also the buys go up further if more money comes in and then sinks down to the minimum amount in the event that no new money is coming in.

So the extent to which additional buys happen just relates to whether anyone is giving him (or his company stubbles across) extra money to keep buying BTC... Money dries up, then no more buys, money comes in then additional buys, beyond whatever amounts that he structurally has already set up.

So for example, let me outline this in a kind of hypothetical way that I believe would be completely sustainable up to a year and surely he could do longer or shorter periods, yet let me say that if Saylor were to consider that he/his company has around $520 million in cash reserves that are already set aside and directly allocated for future bitcoin buys, then he can spend $10 million per week for the next 52 weeks with that $10 million per weeks as a minimum budgeted amount for buying bitcoin on a regular, consistent and persistent basis no matter what (and keeps his/MSTRs name in the news every single week with even bare minimum amounts that are not exactly unnewsworthy.. even though surely there might be some chuckles at BTC buys during weeks that end up ONLY being $10 million for the week, but that still is 100 BTC if the price is $100k each and 10 BTC if the price is $1 million each)...

So any new money that comes in would either be used to buy bitcoin right away for that week, or put into that bitcoin allocated reserve (the $520 million fund) or put into another back up cash fund.. .. So new money coming in might automatically get put $10 million in each of the three categories that I mentioned, and if the amount is above $30 million, then any excess beyond $30 million per week would be used to buy BTC right away during that week.   

Sure, I am making up these particulars, but just outlining something like this as an example of a cashflow management way that has a couple categories of reserves that could be designed to be sustainable with assured buys for at least 52 weeks into the future no matter what with $10 million per week minimum and then any additional BTC buys would be based upon new money coming in and mostly erroring on the side of buying BTC as the money comes in once the amount coming in per week is above $30 million..

Even with my particular example, I am thinking that such a way would be completely reasonable and within bare minimum kinds of characteristics that would also allow for buying BTC with whatever new money comes in, yet I kind of get the impression that Saylor/MSTR is way less reasonable and conservative than me, so they may well be spending way beyond what I am suggesting to be sustainable.. yet at the same time, I am just one dumb person on the internet, and Saylor/MSTR has people who are brainstorming these kinds of variations of ideas on a regular basis, so they have pretty damned decently good ideas about ways that they can push in more adventurous ways, but still not be any more risky as a keep buying no matter what system than the for example method that I outlined.


Personally I believe there will be those periods when Chad Saylor stops buying. Those periods are, as mentioned, when MSTR is at a discount against Bitcoin. But it will not stay in the state forever. When MSTR trades with a premium against Bitcoin again, then that's definitely when he'll start bidding Bitcoin again.

Plus this is merely my humble opinion - I wouldn't have a lower opinion of Chad Saylor if he sells some of the Bitcoin in MicroStrategy's vaults to purchase MSTR during periods of discounts and make it a cyclical trade between Bitcoin and MSTR, between periods of premium or discount/trade back and forth between Bitcoin and MSTR.

Basically because they are people who are bullish on bitcoin and what they hope to do is convert that convertible debt for shares when the price goes up profiting more than if they had bought bitcoin only. I have not bought that debt nor do I think I understand it 100% but from what I have seen and read it is like that.

However, if it can buy just 50k Bitcoins, it will be able to collect 0.5 million Bitcoins, which is more than almost the entire Bitcoin (at an estimated rate of 2%+).

Check what you say here, I don't know if it's bad wording but it doesn't make any sense.

If that is done then it is the same as Mr. Saylor has betrayed what he has said all this time. He proclaimed Hold until he dies or he has said he will inherit his btc when he dies.

However, in the company I do not know how it becomes a tactic but what is clear is that the current steps are good to run because microstrategy is at the forefront with the way they make bitcoin a company treasury asset.

Next week, maybe Saylor will buy btc again or maybe sooner before January 20th.

If that's actually your opinion, OK. But if you ask me, personally I'm agnostic. If he wants to be a Bitcoin evangelist, OK. But if whats to treat it as part of an investment strategy, OK for as well.

What's important for me is the network will chug along with or WITHOUT Chad Saylor.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If Bitcoin makes those mini-surges without any news or any reason why, those are Saylor's bids. Cool

Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy Company has deposited a total of 450,000 Bitcoins, I said that if he purchases another 50k Bitcoins, the total will be 500,000 Bitcoins, which will be half a million (0.5 million Bitcoins).

Wasn't BlackRock the top investment company? MicroStrategy is just competing to beat BlackRock. Although, I could be wrong. With the approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs, investment companies are now trying to compete in a bid to accumulate the most BTC.

Between BlackRock and MicroStrategy, I'd say both are neck-in-neck. I don't think Michael Saylor will sell the company's BTC holdings. Especially when there's more to the cryptocurrency than meets the eye. Everyone is waiting for the big event (when 1 Bitcoin is valued at $1m). Obviously, Bitcoin is superior to Cash. It's just that people won't recognize it. They prefer to use BTC as a store of value, than "digital cash". With limited transaction capacity, don't expect this to change anytime soon. At least, it's better something than nothing.
