MicroStrategy Purchased 660 More BTC for $25 Million

The NASDAQ-listed business intelligence giant has stayed true to its word to acquire more bitcoins no matter the market conditions. The firm’s CEO announced the latest purchase worth $25 million.

  • It’s worth noting that this purchase came at the end of January as its total stash exceeded 125,000 as of the end of that month.
  • As of now, the firm has spent $3.78 billion to acquire its bitcoin pile at an average price of $30,200 per coin.

  • The previous purchase came in late December when MicroStrategy spent $94 million to buy 1,914 BTC.

  • Apart from Saylor, who is a well-known bitcoin bull, MicroStrategy’s CFO – Phong Le – also asserted that the firm will keep buying and holding BTC no matter what happens in the market in terms of price action.
