The company's current Bitcoin holdings have reached 444,262 BTC, most of which were purchased before the Bitcoin price correction. To date, MicroStrategy has spent a total of $27.7 billion to purchase Bitcoin, while its current value has increased to $42.6 billion, and even though the Bitcoin price has recently declined, the profits remain astonishing, with a cumulative increase of 54%.
Another Japanese company, Metaplanet, also expressed unwavering confidence, announcing this week through a press release that it purchased nearly 620 BTC, setting its largest single purchase record. This transaction was financed through the issuance of zero-coupon bonds, with approximately $60.6 million raised to invest in Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to 1,762 BTC, with a total Bitcoin value of about $168 million, driving its stock price to continue climbing.
