With this quite substantial purchase, Saylor and his team have increased the firm’s total bitcoin stash to 423,650 BTC. At current prices, this fortune equates to roughly $42 billion.
Given that the company spent $25.6 billion to accumulate it, this means that the NASDAQ-listed giant now sits on an unrealized profit worth more than $17 billion.
Recall that MicroStrategy has continuously been announcing large BTC purchases for the past four Mondays.
In a recent interview, Saylor, the bitcoin champion of the firm, said they will keep purchasing the asset’s top even when it surges to $1 million. He envisioned that the cryptocurrency will continue to surge in value in the following decades and will skyrocket to $13 million per BTC by 2045.
