Strategy Bitcoin Accumulation Strategy Growing
A month ago, Strategy purchased 6,556 Bitcoin for about $555.8 million. The regulatory Form 8-K filing submitted on the same day showed that each Bitcoin unit was bought at an average price of $84,785.
Immediately after this recent acquisition, Saylor hinted at the potential of a new BTC acquisition soon. The Michael Saylor bet on BTC has caught the attention of many market experts, most of whom support its strategy. In fact, the performance of its stock largely reflects the confidence among investors relating to its investment approaches.
Saylor argues that Bitcoin is a better store of value than traditional assets, citing that it carries no counterparty risks. Crypto analysts have noted that Bitcoin is showing a bullish pattern. They are very well anticipating a “golden cross” formation ahead. This setup can help set the stage for the next leg of the rally to new all-time-highs (ATHs).
BTC is showing renewed strength with rising market dominance, despite Moody’s downgrade of the US credit rating due to economic fragility.
