NEVER ENOUGH 🏦

BREAKING: MicroStrategy Adds 10.1K Bitcoin to Holdings

For the 12th week in a row, MicroStrategy bought even more Bitcoin. 🤯

This time MicroStrategy acquired an additional 10,107 Bitcoin for ~$1.1 billion. (Average price of ~$105,596 per BTC)

This brings MicroStrategy’s total holdings to 471,107 Bitcoin, acquired for ~$30.4 billion. (Average price of ~$64,511 per BTC)

Putting those numbers into perspective…

MicroStrategy now holds 2.24% of Bitcoin’s total 21 million supply. 🤯

And at today’s prices, MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings are worth ~$48.21 billion.

Which means they’re sitting on unrealized profits of ~$17.81 billion.

And we all knew this was coming, as Saylor once again posted a screenshot of SaylorTracker.com on Sunday.

As we mentioned at the start, this also marks the 12th week in a row that MicroStrategy has purchased Bitcoin.

The previous 11 weeks being:

• January 20: 11,000 Bitcoin for $1.1 billion

• January 12: 2,530 Bitcoin for $243 million

• January 5: 1,070 Bitcoin for $101 million

• December 29: 2,138 Bitcoin for $209 million

• December 22: 5,262 Bitcoin for $561 million

• December 15: 15,350 Bitcoin for ~$1.5 billion

• December 8: 21,550 Bitcoin for ~$2.1 billion

• December 1: 15,400 Bitcoin for ~$1.5 billion

• November 24: 55,500 Bitcoin for ~$5.4 billion

• November 17: 51,780 Bitcoin for ~$4.6 billion

• November 10: 27,200 Bitcoin for ~$2.03 billion

(This list is getting seriously long…)

In total, that’s over $20.44 billion worth of Bitcoin purchased over the last 12 weeks.

Absolutely ridiculous numbers.

In a nutshell:

If you can’t handle the drawdowns in crypto, you don’t deserve the upside.

MAKE THAT THREE 💪

The streaks heating up. 🔥

Last week Digital asset funds saw net inflows of $1.9 billion.

Which brings year-to-date inflows up to a solid $4.8 billion.

Let’s break it down.

Bitcoin came out on top, experiencing inflows of $1.59 billion for the week. (That’s 85% of the total weekly inflow)

Ethereum also had another positive week, seeing inflows of $204.7 million.

Whilst XRP continued its impressive run with further inflows of $18.5 million.

The United States saw inflows of $1.74 billion for the week.

Switzerland and Canada also saw notable inflows of $34.6m and $30.9m respectively.

Whilst Sweden was the only country to experience an outflow of $5.7 million.

For the third week in a row, digital asset funds experienced net inflows.

The biggest reason for last weeks inflows was due to the executive orders that proposed a digital asset strategic reserve.

The government now has a focus on Bitcoin and crypto, in a good way…

Something we’ve never seen before…
