While this is a wild guess by crypto influencer Crypto Rover, itโs a fact that tech heavyweights like MicroStrategy are doubling down on their Bitcoin bets, as the early 2023 rally painted many institutional investorsโ bags green.
Indeed, Michael Saylor confirmed that MicroStrategy paid off the Silverate loan and topped up the companyโs Bitcoin stash with 6,455 BTC in five weeks. With an average price of $23,200, the latest investment seems to have paid off already.
Despite the enthusiasm from large tech companies, the leading digital asset fell sharply below the $30,000 milestone price range recently. At press time, Bitcoin trades at $28,873.18, according to CoinGecko.
With a 1.2% downturn in the last 24 hours and 3.4% in weekly terms, Bitcoin still trades above the fundamental support at $28,000 but was fiercely rejected at a key level of resistance, possibly paving the way for altcoin season.
On the Flipside
- Despite the balance sheet remaining flat from the previous quarterly report, it doesnโt mean Tesla’s Bitcoin bag is worth the same amount.
- According to the current accounting rules, the fluctuating price isnโt booked – just the amount of Bitcoins.
