Microstrategy Officially Posts a Profit as it Buys Another 12,333 BTC for $347M
Microstrategy - led by Michael Saylor - has been on a Bitcoin buying rampage ever since they got into the space. They started by dipping their toes in but it wasn't long until they were full force into the waves of this industry.
Their mission and message has been heard worldwide as other companies step in to take a closer look at what they're up to.
During the bull market, they seemed like geniuses.
Then the bear market hit. Many started to question their plans. Some thought they would go under because of their debt obligations.
But anyone who followed closely saw what was happening. They were turning themselves into a proxy ETF and simultaneously acquiring a ridiculously large Bitcoin position.
At this point, it's quite obvious that Microstrategy has made all of the right moves.
Their BTC holdings are officially profitable as their break even price is just below $30k.
152,333 BTC Acquired at $29,668
Microstrategy has been the king of dollar-cost averaging into Bitcoin.
With an asset as volatile as BTC, dollar-cost averaging can save you from emotionally buying or selling at the wrong time. It can save you from buying in at the top or selling at the bottom.
I deploy dollar-cost averaging in my everyday life. I am constantly - and more importantly, consistently - buying Bitcoin.
Microstrategy did not amass one of the largest Bitcoin positions in the world overnight. It was slow. It was methodical. They bought when everyone told them not to.
Buying When There's Blood in the Streets
It's easy to buy something when it's going up. The promise of it "continuing to go up" is so easy to buy into relative to something that is going down.
Retail investors - friends and family - will cheer you on as you buy something that is going up.
But when the opposite is happening. When we are in the midst of a deep bear market... they'll all laugh at you. They'll call you crazy.
They'll tell you to be realistic and don't throw your money away.
You can bet your ass that people were telling Michael Saylor and Microstrategy things like that.
Did they listen? No.
Have they turned out to be right in the long-run? Yes.
Being profitable on their BTC position is a huge change in the game for them. People can't quite laugh at them so hard when a simple 25% move in the BTC price can add $1B to their balance sheet.
The lesson?
- Dollar-cost average, even when they laugh at you... ESPECIALLY when they laugh at you.

Absolutely agree! Microstrategy's approach to dollar-cost averaging into Bitcoin has been nothing short of brilliant. They displayed remarkable conviction and perseverance during both bullish and bearish market conditions. While many doubted their strategy and questioned their plans, they stayed the course and stayed committed to their vision.
Conviction and consistency are 9/10ths of the battle

I was going to say Microstrategy was the first real Bitcoin ETF and are years ahead of all the others.
Hello @khaleelkazi , I am still waiting to be unblocked on leofinance discord and ask for a refund. Unfortunately, I was one of the members that got caught by the scam on 2nd June. Please can you assist?
