Microstrategy Tells US Regulators It Swapped $15 Million in Cash for 262 Bitcoin

Seven days ago, on March 5, Bitcoin.com reported on Microstrategy leveraging $10 million in cash to purchase 205 bitcoin (BTC). On March 12, Microstrategy announced another acquisition of $15 million worth of bitcoin in a Form 8-K Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing. The March 12 SEC filing explains the firm’s move to purchase the 262 bitcoin (BTC).

Meanwhile, bitcoin bull and Microstrategy CEO Michael Saylor revealed the purchase via Twitter on Friday morning. Similar to Saylor’s prior tweets, the CEO explained how much Microstrategy purchased, the price the company paid, the number of bitcoin the company now holds, and the average price the firm paid per coin using the strategy.

Despite the announcement, bitcoin (BTC) has slid during Friday morning’s trading sessions to a low of $55,011 per unit at 8:25 a.m. losing over 2.7%. This was after BTC touched a monthly high at $58,156 per coin nearing the decentralized crypto asset’s all-time high (ATH) at $58,350 per coin.

Even though the price is lower than what Microstrategy paid this week ($57,146 per BTC), the company’s dollar-cost averaging strategy has paid off so far. The company’s 91k+ BTC stash is worth over $5.1 billion but the average cost of the BTC at $24,214 shows they purchased it all for $2.2 billion.

Moreover, the business intelligence (BI) company’s balance sheet with 91,326 bitcoin is only 8,674 BTC away from hitting 100,000 BTC. Using today’s exchange rates, that’s around $482 million worth of bitcoin.
