币界网报道:Video streaming platform MicroStrategy, led by executive chair Michael Saylor, has raised $528 million through a convertible debt offering to purchase additional Bitcoin. The company announced the private placement of convertible senior notes due in 2030, with an option for initial purchasers to buy up to $50 million more within 13 days. MicroStrategy plans to use the proceeds to acquire more Bitcoin and for general corporate purposes. This marks the second major Bitcoin purchase initiative by MicroStrategy this month, following its $800 million convertible note offering in early March. The company currently holds approximately 205,000 BTC, worth over $14 billion at current prices, making it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin. Saylor has been a vocal Bitcoin advocate, calling it "the hope of the entire crypto industry" and emphasizing its role as a store of value. The latest funding move comes as Bitcoin trades near all-time highs above $70,000, fueled by spot Bitcoin ETF approvals and growing institutional adoption. Analysts note MicroStrategy's aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy has significantly outperformed traditional tech stocks, with its shares rising over 500% since August 2020 when it first adopted Bitcoin as its primary treasury reserve asset. The company's Bitcoin-focused approach has drawn both praise from crypto enthusiasts and skepticism from traditional investors concerned about volatility risks.
