Продолжай складывать сателлит, Сейлор.

Майкл Сэйлор, генеральный директор MicroStrategy, написал в Twitter, анонсировать the purchase of more Bitcoin by his company. The software firm bolstered its holdings by 480 bitcoins for a combined sum of $10 million.

Each BTC was purchased at an average price of $20,817 and brings MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings to an impressive 129,699 Bitcoins. MicroStrategy adopted the strategy of buying the dip over the last two years with the entire cache of Bitcoin owned by the firm costing $3.98 billion to acquire.

The firm put the US Securities and Exchange Commission on notice with a Form 8-K filing on June 29. The latest purchase means that Saylor’s firm holds 1 Bitcoin из каждых 161 Bitcoins that will ever be in existence.

The firm’s Chief Financial Officer revealed back in May that Bitcoin needs to cut in half or around $21,000 before we’d have a margin call.” It remains unclear whether the firm responded to the call but analysts deduce that the new purchase points towards a strong resolve to stick with Bitcoin к концу.
