Bitcoin Recovers Slightly as Strategy Moves to Raise $2B for More BTC
Bitcoin’s price edged higher late Tuesday after a major funding announcement from Strategy (MSTR), formerly known as MicroStrategy.
Key Takeaways:
- Strategy is securing $2 billion through a 0% convertible note offering, with an option for underwriters to purchase an additional $300 million.
- The company intends to use the majority of the funds to acquire more Bitcoin (BTC), reinforcing its long-term bullish stance.
- Led by Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, Strategy remains the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder, currently holding 478,740 BTC—valued at over $45 billion at present market prices.
- In response to the news, Bitcoin erased some earlier losses, climbing 1% to $95,000, though still down 1.2% over the past day.
With this latest move, Strategy continues its aggressive accumulation of Bitcoin, further entrenching itself as a dominant institutional player in the crypto space.
