Michael Saylor’s Strategy Unveils $21 Billion Stock Issuance For Bitcoin Investment

Michael Saylor, co-founder and chairman of Strategy (formerly Microstrategy), is intensifying efforts to acquire Bitcoin (BTC) by tapping into capital markets, announcing plans to issue up to $21 billion in preferred stock. Strategy Plans Major Sale Of Preferred Shares According to Bloomberg, the new offering will consist of 8% series A perpetual-strike preferred shares, which are convertible into class A common stock. The company plans to sell these shares through an “at the market offering” program, allowing for flexibility in timing and pricing. This approach builds on a previous successful effort in January, when Strategy raised $563 million by issuing preferred shares priced at $80 each, which were offered at a discount to their market value.

The favorable terms of the January deal reportedly attracted significant investor interest, contributing to a strong performance of the newly issued shares. Since late October, Strategy has been actively acquiring Bitcoin, and the latest capital raise is part of a broader strategy to secure $42 billion over the next few years through various securities offerings. This includes a focus on selling fixed-income securities while managing common stock sales to fund additional BTC purchases. Currently, the firm holds approximately 499,096 Bitcoin, valued at around $42 billion. Shares Drop 10% Amid Bitcoin Crash Despite this purchase plan, Strategy reported that it did not purchase any Bitcoin between March 3 and March 9, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. This pause comes amid a fluctuating cryptocurrency market, where the market’s leading crypto, BTC, recently trades at $79,000 down 4.5% for the day and approximately 18% on the monthly time frame. The preferred stock market has seen varied performance; while the shares climbed 18% from their initial pricing, they faced a decline of over 6% in a recent trading session as the supply increased.

As seen in the daily chart below, shares of Strategy (MSTR), also experienced a drop of around 15% to $238 on Monday, reflecting broader market trends that have seen the company’s stock down approximately 10% this year. In contrast, shares have surged over 2,200% since Saylor began investing in Bitcoin as an inflation hedge in 2020, while Bitcoin itself has risen over 600%. The announcement of Strategy’s plans coincided with recent developments from the US government. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to create a strategic US Bitcoin reserve, which will be funded through cryptocurrencies forfeited in legal proceedings.
