Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy (MSTR) has raised an additional $3 billion to fund a new mass Bitcoin purchase, Saylor announced Thursday. According to Saylor, Microstrategy completed a $3 billion offering of convertible notes at 0% coupon and 55% premium, with an implied strike price of $672.

Microstrategy, a renowned business intelligence and IB tool firm, is capitalizing big off the brewing Bitcoin boom. Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin strategy was viewed by many as a key reason for the stock’s performance. He has reflected that strategy into MSTR, spreading the profits and joys that come with being a Bitcoin holder in November 2024.

According to MicroStrategy’s press release Thursday, the aggregate principal amount of the notes sold in the offering was $3 billion. It includes $400 million aggregate principal amount of notes issued pursuant to an option to purchase, within a 3-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the notes were first issued, granted to the initial purchasers under the purchase agreement for the notes, which the initial purchasers exercised in full on November 20, 2024, and which additional purchase was completed on November 21, 2024. Additionally, the notes were sold in a private offering only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933.

MicroStrategy Ramps Up Bitcoin Efforts

MicroStrategy has had a huge November, as has the company’s stock. Michael Saylor’s company set a new personal record this week, reaching a $100B market cap. The biggest contributor to this rise is arguably the corresponding climb of the king cryptocurrency, Bitcoin (BTC). In the last 30 days, BTC is up 45%, creeping up on a $100,000 price for the first time. The firm’s belief in Bitcoin and its project has brought record gains for MicroStrategy, and the company isn’t slowing down.

MicroStrategy initially announced a plan to raise $2.6B to buy more Bitcoin. However, that target was quickly surpassed, with the company instead raising $3B. The company plans to continue its mass Bitcoin accumulation as Bitcoin continues to explode in price. With a $100k price target imminent, MicroStrategy’s BTC holdings are impressive not just because of the total holdings, but the cost of them. On average, MSTR picked up each Bitcoin for about half the price of its current value, a near 100% profit.

Furthermore, stock shares in Saylor’s Microstrategy are riding high on the radar. MSTR is currently sitting at $473 after spiking 9% last night in hopes of Bitcoin hitting the ambitious $100K mark. The firm’s stock is surging at a record pace and may ultimately cross the $500 threshold.
