Michael Saylor's MicroStrategy Buys Another $5.4B in Bitcoin

As the stock and the leading crypto continue to soar to new heights this year, Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy has purchased another $5.4 billion worth of Bitcoin. Indeed, the business intelligence firm announced that it added 55,500 BTC to its stash in what is its biggest purchase to date.

Saylor announced the purchase on X (formerly Twitter), with the firm paying $97,862 per BTC during the record-setting sale. The move only adds to the company’s ongoing Bitcoin acquisition strategy. To date, the firm holds a remarkable 386,700 BTC acquired for $21.9 billion.

MicroStrategy Keeps Growing BTC Stash, Adds $5.4 Billion in Bitcoin

There is little argument that 2024 has been the biggest year in Bitcoin’s history. Not only did it completely change US investments into cryptocurrencies in becoming the first digital asset-based ETF, but it has also surged in institutional investment interest. Moreover, it has skyrocketed in value, setting continued all-time highs.

That has been a massive benefit to some of the asset’s biggest defenders. Chief among them is Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy, which purchased $5.4 billion in Bitcoin in its latest acquisition. Adding 55,500 BTC to its stash, the firm has grown its holdings and solidified its strategy.

The latest purchase comes just a week after the firm enacted another $4.6 billion purchase, which had been a record at the time it went through. The company has shown no signs of slowing down its Bitcoin purchasing, nor should they. Indeed, MSTR stock has surged, with the company reaching a $100 billion market cap.

The company had sought to raise another $2 billion to buy even more Bitcoin earlier this year. The biggest question now is: what happens when BTC reaches a $100,000 price? The asset is right on the doorstep, reaching a $99,000 all-time high.

DeFi CEO Says ‘No One Cares’ to Deutsche Bank Entry into BTC Custody

Deutsche Bank to offer bitcoin custody solution for institutional clients. Cake Group CEO believes the move will not substantially increase capital inflow or attract new participants. Deutsche Bank’s Paul Maley projects the digital asset sector to grow to trillions of dollars. Julian Hosp, the CEO of DeFi business Cake Group, has shared a skeptical reaction to Deutsche Bank’s newly-launched bitcoin custody services for institutional clients. Responding to a post on X (Twitter) by Bitcoin Magazine announcing the bank’s new services, Hosp wrote “Sadly, no one cares”. In full, his response read, And guess what… sadly no one cares… because everyone in Germany can already buy #bitcoin either with an ETF (that has literally ZERO volume) or on an exchange. All these banks entering the space, are not bringing in extra money or people. They are just re-routing existing… https://t.co/MMZHSbGB9U — Dr. Julian Hosp (@julianhosp) September 15, 2023 T...

MATIC Price Plunges, Have the Bulls Finally Lost Control?

Image
MATIC witnessed a decline in bullish momentum and has lost hold of the $0.74 psychological support. Buying pressure was weak as the CMF hovered around the zero line. Traders might likely short/sell MATIC in the near term since the 50 EMA crossed over the 20 EMA. Polygon (MATIC) brief dip below $0.78 has turned out to be an event that has lasted a whopping five days. Over the last 24 hours, the altcoin had lost 2.32% of its value. But its last 30 days’ performance was controlled by the bulls where MATIC increased by 6.61%. Currently, the MATIC/USD 4-Hour chart shows that the altcoin was hovering around a tight support zone at $0.71. Due to decreased demand, MATIC’s buying strength has been cut off. This indicates bearish dominance around $0.72. For MATIC to regain bullish momentum, the price must rise above the $0.74 psychological level. But if selling pressure outweighs demand, then the recovery attempt could be quenched. Furthermore, bears have ...

Miles Deutscher predicts PEPE will outperform DOGE in the next bull cycle. Deutscher noted that fewer PEPE holders are underwater compared to DOGE holders. PEPE has more multiples to reach its previous all-time high (ATH) compared to DOGE. PEPE will outperform DOGE in the next bull cycle, predicts Miles Deutscher, a renowned cryptocurrency analyst. In a Twitter post, Deutscher highlighted the reasons behind his prediction. I think $PEPE outperforms $DOGE next cycle. Why? • The Underwater Thesis: Less PEPE holders underwater vs DOGE, meaning less sell pressure on the way up + lower multiples to reach previous ATH (2.8x vs 12x). • People are more fatigued with the DOGE meme, Pepe feels fresher… — Miles Deutscher (@milesdeutscher) June 23, 2023 Deutscher’s first reason for supporting PEPE to outperform DOGE in the next cycle is what he called “The Underwater Thesis.” He noted fewer PEPE holders are “underwater” compared to DOGE holders. By that, he me...
