As Bitcoin crosses the $98,000 threshold, the cryptocurrency world is abuzz with anticipation. Among the key influencers in this price surge is MicroStrategy, a software company that has become synonymous with Bitcoin investment. The company’s aggressive acquisition of Bitcoin has drawn comparisons to the ill-fated Luna project, but a deeper examination reveals a distinct approach that sets MicroStrategy apart in the digital currency realm.

• The Investment Strategy Unveiled

MicroStrategy’s journey into Bitcoin investment began in 2020, with the company initially using its own capital to purchase the cryptocurrency. This was soon followed by a series of bond issuances and share sales to raise additional funds, leveraging the company’s financial position. Unlike Luna’s unsecured UST tokens, MicroStrategy’s strategy has been to invest in Bitcoin with a mix of equity and debt, a move that has reaped significant rewards as Bitcoin’s popularity climbs.
