The firm bought 295 bitcoins for $10 million in cash at an average cost of $33,808 per coin.

“Microstrategy has purchased approximately 295 bitcoins for $10 million in cash, at an average price of ~ $33,808 per bitcoin,” said Microstrategy CEO Michael Saylor in a Twitter post.

Microstrategy aggressively buys bitcoin

Microstrategy has been on an aggressive buying spree since it started buying bitcoin in August last year.

While today’s purchase is relatively small in comparison with the firm’s previous purchase, it re-affirms the company buying strategy.

The company has splashed over $1.1 billion on bitcoin purchases, making it one of the most bitcoin-friendly companies in the world.

“We now hodl ~ 71,079 bitcoins acquired for $1.145 billion at (an) average cost of ~ $16,109,” tweeted Saylor.

In fiat value, Microstrategy’s bitcoin stash is now worth $2,474 billion, more than twice the total buying price.

Saylor has become very vocal in the crypto scene and has said that the company plans to continue holding its bitcoin “and invest additional excess cash flows in bitcoin.”

Better returns

Companies are always on the lookout for ways in which their money can bring in better returns. It seems that Microstrategy sees bitcoin as a way of getting a good return on investment.

“The company continues to believe bitcoin will provide the opportunity for better returns and preserve the value of our capital over time compared to holding cash,” said Phone Le, the company’s President and CFO.

Microstrategy’s investment in bitcoin has paid off as the digital asset’s price continues to trade above the $30K range. 

An example to companies

The firm has become an example to other corporations that may be interested in converting a part of their balance sheet into bitcoin.

Microstrategy is hosting the Bitcoin for Corporations event in which they discuss what the company calls the “groundbreaking treasury reserve strategy.”

Saylor and Phong Le will be part of the event as well as Digital Galaxy founder Mike Novogratz and executives from Binance, Kraken, Coinbase, NYDIG, Fidelity Digital Assets, Genesis, Gemini, and Paxos.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
