MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), a leading American tech firm specializing in enterprise analytics and mobility software, has announced a 10-for-1 stock split for its Class A and B common stock. This move aims to make MSTR stocks more accessible to both investors and employees. 
By implementing this stock split, MicroStrategy hopes to enhance liquidity, enabling the company to acquire more Bitcoins in the coming years. The trading of the newly split MSTR stock will begin on August 8, 2024, without affecting stakeholders’ voting rights.

 “As a result of the dividend, each holder of a share of MicroStrategy’s class A common stock will receive nine (9) additional shares of class A common stock and each holder of a share of MicroStrategy’s class B common stock will receive nine (9) additional shares of class B common stock,” <cite><a href="https://www.microstrategy.com/press/microstrategy-announces-10-for-1-stock-split_07-11-2024">Microstrategy</a></cite>

This stock split paves the way for easier tokenization of MicroStrategy’s stock on various blockchains, reinforcing the company’s commitment to its Bitcoin strategy. Founder and chairman Michael Saylor has consistently highlighted the importance of including Bitcoin in investment portfolios as a long-term insurance plan. 
As reported by Coinpedia, MicroStrategy currently holds over 226,000 Bitcoins, acquired through stock sales and revenue collection. The company’s bold approach has influenced other publicly traded companies, such as Metaplanet and Tesla, to adopt similar Bitcoin strategies. 
Looking ahead, the adoption of Bitcoin by institutional investors is expected to grow, facilitated by spot BTC ETFs that offer increased liquidity and security.
