MicroStrategy Purchases Another $1.1 Billion In Bitcoin Amid Market Sell-Off

Software company MicroStrategy has today expanded its Bitcoin (BTC) reserves by acquiring an additional 10,107 BTC ahead of its Monday decline. MicroStrategy’s latest purchase marks the firm’s 12th consecutive week of BTC buys. MicroStrategy Bitcoin Cache Grows By 10.1K MicroStrategy’s Executive Chairman Michael Saylor announced that the company had spent roughly $1.1 billion to acquire the 10,107 BTC at an average price of $105,596 per BTC between Jan. 21 and Jan. 26.

MicroStrategy’s Saylor kicked off the company’s Bitcoin buying master plan in 2020 and hasn’t stopped since — though over the past 12 weeks, it has accelerated its accumulation, announcing a new BTC buy every week during that period. The company has since turned to debt issuance like convertible notes and senior secured notes to finance its aggressive BTC buying spree. Saylor believes Bitcoin is the best inflation hedge and a way to get better returns for shareholders over the long term — and advises other companies to do the same. MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin Buying Inspire Global Corporate Adoption Last October, MicroStrategy entered a sales agreement known as the “21/21 Plan” that allows the company to raise as much as $42 billion via equity and fixed-income securities offerings for Bitcoin acquisitions. On Jan. 21, MicroStrategy shareholders expanded that plan by voting in favor of a 30x increase to the number of authorized Class A common shares to help make further Bitcoin purchases. MicroStrategy’s latest purchase was funded through stock sales, as was the case in previous weeks. As per a Jan. 27 SEC filing, the company sold 2.76 million shares over the past week, generating $1.1 billion in net proceeds. The company still has $4.35 billion worth of shares available for sale under their sales agreement as of January 26. Years after MicroStrategy pioneered large-scale corporate Bitcoin adoption, the strategy began picking up steam among other publicly listed companies. Other notable BTC holders include Elon Musk’s Tesla & SpaceX , medical technology firm Semler Scientific , and Japan’s Metaplanet .
