The acquisition followed closely after the sale of additional 319,586 MicroStrategy shares, which occurred at the same time and brought the same amount. The firm reported that around $6.77 billion worth of shares stayed available for sale as of January 5.

This is part of the company’s proposed $21 billion equity offering and $21 billion in fixed-income securities funding, aiming for a total of $42 billion for additional Bitcoin purchases. Last week, MicroStrategy expanded its 21/21 plan, revealing a possible $2 billion preferred stock offering.

According to the analysts, MicroStrategy, which represented around 90% of corporate acquisitions in 2024, is expected to continue driving demand. Additionally, Bitcoin miners are scaling up their capital plans, while small and mid-cap corporates are looking to follow Michael Saylor’s approach.

“Given MicroStrategy’s 4 year track record and its rising profile (including Nasdaq 100 inclusion), we expect capital markets flywheel to further accelerate,” Bernstein digital assets lead Gautam Chhugani said to clients on Monday.

MicroStrategy uses a key performance indicator known as “Bitcoin Yield” to assess the percentage change in its Bitcoin holdings relative to its diluted shares.
