An excerpt from the report reads:<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">The expectation that the company will continue to snap up more digital currency, coupled with anticipated Bitcoin price appreciation, gives MicroStrategy a 75% premium to the underlying value of its Bitcoin holdings.</blockquote>According to Mizuho, this unique mix of circumstances alongside the “more hospitable political environment” for cryptocurrency investment under U.S. president Donald Trump, means that MicroStrategy will be able to keep growing its BTC reserves faster than its stock market offerings can dilute its shares.Read more: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://crypto.news/south-koreas-upbit-launches-ai-agent-token-virtual/"> South Korea’s Upbit launches AI agent token VIRTUAL </a>
