Bitcoin

Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy has made a significant splash as it adds more Bitcoin to its holdings, amid a volatile trading scenario in the crypto market. Notably, with its latest acquisition, MicroStrategy now has more Bitcoin in its reserves, than some of the world’s most powerful governments, including the U.S. and China. 
Meanwhile, this bold move also underscores Saylor’s unwavering confidence in <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin</a>, despite recent price slumps. In addition, the current holdings of MicroStrategy totals about 1% of the total Bitcoin supply.

MicroStrategy’s recent acquisition of Bitcoin has propelled it to a position of dominance in the cryptocurrency realm, surpassing even the holdings of major governments. Notably, CEO <a href="https://coingape.com/michael-saylor-says-bitcoin-will-eat-gold-emerging-as-top-asset-price-surges-over-72k/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michael Saylor’s</a> strategic maneuvers have attracted widespread attention, signaling a strong endorsement of Bitcoin’s potential despite market volatility. 
Meanwhile, in a recent X post, <a href="https://coingape.com/bitcoin-dip-below-51k-cryptoquant-ceo-predicts-despite-bullish-outlook/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CryptoQuant CEO</a> Ki Young Ju hailed MicroStrategy’s achievement, noting that the company now holds more Bitcoin than both the US and Chinese governments combined. This milestone has sparked fervent discussions within the crypto community, highlighting MicroStrategy’s bullish stance on the digital asset. 
Ki Young Ju revealed that <a href="https://coingape.com/breaking-microstrategy-buys-9245-btc-now-holds-1-of-all-bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MicroStrategy’s</a> Bitcoin holdings now total approximately 214,000 BTC. This staggering figure surpasses the holdings of both the Chinese government, which holds around 194,000 BTC, and the U.S. government, with approximately 210,000 BTC in its reserves. 
Notably, MicroStrategy’s significant accumulation of Bitcoin also underscores the growing interest of the Wall Street players in cryptocurrency as a store of value and investment asset.

MicroStrategy’s acquisition strategy involves a combination of private offerings and cash reserves, as outlined in their recent press release. The company completed a private offering of convertible senior notes, raising over $600 million in proceeds. With these funds, MicroStrategy purchased approximately 9,245 bitcoins, bringing their total holdings to over 214,000 bitcoins. 
However, despite MicroStrategy’s bullish moves, the <a href="https://coingape.com/crypto-stocks/MSTR/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MSTR price</a> closed at $1,417.50 on March 19, down 6% from its previous close. This decline mirrored broader market trends, with many blockchain stocks retreating amid a <a href="https://coingape.com/bitcoin-crash-why-btc-price-falling-today/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin crash</a>. 
Meanwhile, the recent downturn in the cryptocurrency market has been linked by analysts to consecutive outflows from the U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF. For the second day in a row, the <a href="https://coingape.com/btc-price-under-pressure-as-bitcoin-etf-outflows-shoot-over-350-million/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF</a> experienced significant outflows, with $326.2 million exiting on March 19, following a $154.4 million outflux the day before.
