Bought the Dip? MicroStrategy Purchased $10M in Bitcoin at $43.6K

Date:

Michael Saylor’s NASDAQ-listed company continues with its initiative to purchase sizeable amounts of bitcoins at frequent intervals. The firm said earlier today it had allocated another $10 million in cash in BTC, and its total stash is over 92,000 coins.

  • The founder and CEO of the business intelligence giant announced the latest purchase on Twitter earlier on May 12th.
  • It reads that the firm has bought 229 bitcoins for $10 million in cash at an average price of $43,663 per coin.
  • Keeping in mind the multiple purchases made since August 2020, the firm holds 92,079 bitcoins. MicroStrategy has paid $2.251 billion for its stash, with an average price of $24,450 per token.
  • Although this is far from being the largest single acquisition, as the company once bought more than $1 billion worth of BTC, this one actually comes in a compelling moment.
  • In fact, buying 10 million coins at an average price of $43,663 means that MicroStrategy has taken advantage of a popular narrative in the crypto community – buy the dip.
  • The price of the primary cryptocurrency has suffered severely in the past week or so after Elon Musk announced that Tesla has stopped receiving BTC payments for its electric vehicles.
  • In a matter of days, bitcoin fell from over $58,000 to a three-month low of $42,000.
  • Although losing $16,000 of value in less than a week could be considered a major blow, and some investors disposed of their coins even at a loss, MicroStrategy has reaffirmed its promise to continue buying bitcoin as part of its reserve treasury strategy.
