A beneficial investment for MicroStrategy

As of this writing, bitcoin (BTC) has lost value again. It is currently worth around $ 42,883.30, after a drop of 1.16%.

MicroStrategy continues its policy of buying bitcoin (BTC)
MicroStrategy turned its attention to bitcoin (BTC) during the year 2020, more specifically in August. At that time, she had invested $ 250 million. Since then, she has supplemented her bitcoin cash flow by buying even more. Along with its acquisitions, the company issued convertible senior notes with the aim of raising funds to buy BTC again.
Michael Saylor remains a staunch defender of BTC to this day. Even if everyone in the cryptocurrency industry were to abandon this digital asset one day, it wouldn’t. Indeed, this is what suggests its policy regarding the purchase of BTC. Of course, not everyone agrees with his vision of things, but the fact remains that he wants to continue in this direction.
That said, it should be noted that MicroStrategy officials have get rid of part of their shares in BTC since the decline in value of the digital asset. This situation arose shortly after Phong Le, CFO of MicroStrategy, and Timothy Lang, CTO, themselves liquidated 30% of their shares.
MicroStrategy company will continue to buy bitcoin (BTC) for as long as possible. Indeed, it has just carried out a new operation, while its stock is already considerable. Lately, she bought 1,914 BTC for $ 94.20 billion, bringing her total inventory to $ 5.90 billion.
