<h4><strong>MicroStrategy, the big dog in holding Bitcoin (BTC) among companies, is gearing up to raise an extra $600 million to buy even more. The company recently shared the <a href="https://www.microstrategy.com/press/microstrategy-announces-proposed-private-offering-of-600-million-of-convertible-senior-notes_03-04-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">news</a>, saying they’re issuing senior convertible notes for this. </strong></h4> 
<p>These notes are like IOUs that can turn into company shares later on. They’re called “senior” because if things go south and the company tanks, note-holders get the first take on whatever’s left.</p> 
<h5><strong>MicroStrategy Eyes $600M Boost for Bitcoin Purchases</strong></h5> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Led by Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy has been on a Bitcoin shopping spree since mid-2020. They’re sitting on a pile of 193,000 tokens, which adds up to over $13 billion at the current Bitcoin price. </span></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These notes are good until March 15th, 2030, unless something else happens before then. And when the time comes, holders can trade them for cash, shares of MicroStrategy’s class A common stock, or a mix of both.</span></p>

<h5><strong>More About Bitcoin</strong></h5> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">MicroStrategy’s move to buy more Bitcoin comes as the cryptocurrency hit a new all-time high of</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> $69,300 on Tuesday. This <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/cryptocurrency-news/bitcoin-soars-to-record-breaking-69000-peak/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">milestone</a> comes after nearly two and a half years since the last peak in the bull market.</span></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In November 2021, Bitcoin lost steam and entered what felt like a never-ending crypto winter. It wasn’t until the start of 2023 that things started looking up again. Since then, Bitcoin’s price has been on a steady climb, exploring new territories.</span></p>

 <p>BITCOIN HAS MADE A NEW ATH IN 14 OF THE G20 NATION CURRENCIES</p> 
 <p>SOON, IT WILL MAKE A NEW ATH IN USD TOO <a href="https://t.co/8HTNipNRRn">pic.twitter.com/8HTNipNRRn</a></p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But this latest high was short-lived. On Tuesday morning, Bitcoin briefly <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">soared</a> to $69,210, as per Coin Metrics, before quickly retracting. By late afternoon, it had dropped by 8%, settling at $61,973.37.</span></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the recent surge, some investors are sounding the alarm. With Bitcoin already up by 45% this year, they worry that things might soon cool down, especially as unrealized profit margins hit extreme levels.</span></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">BTC’s climb to a new record is a significant accomplishment for the crypto industry. The industry was drowning in negative press and regulatory issues just a few months ago. The collapse of big platforms like <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=ftx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FTX</a> threw the market into deep uncertainty. By the end of 2022, bitcoin had plummeted 64% to its lowest point. However, it has been battling its way back ever since. And the market is beginning to see new opportunities.&nbsp;</span></p>
