When banks finally bless Bitcoin
— Michael Saylor (@saylor) April 28, 2025
and the experts agree it’s a good idea,
everyone will want to buy it,
no one will need to sell it,
and you won’t be able to afford it.
The company reported a year-to-date Bitcoin yield of 13.7% as of April 27, 2025, highlighting the profitability of its digital asset strategy amidst Bitcoin's price appreciation. Currently trading around $94,725, Bitcoin has shown a modest 0.89% increase over the past 24 hours and a more significant 7.44% gain over the last week, per Coinmarketcap data.
CEO Michael Saylor, a vocal proponent of Bitcoin, has predicted the widespread adoption of Bitcoin within the traditional financial system, anticipating that banks will begin offering lending services against Bitcoin holdings. Saylor also foresees the U.S. government eventually holding Bitcoin as part of its reserves, major technology companies integrating Bitcoin into their platforms, and the seamless integration of Bitcoin into everyday devices like iPhones.
Interestingly, Strategy's stock has significantly outperformed major tech companies and the broader market over the past three months. While MSTR has delivered a 6% return, giants like NVIDIA (-6%), the S&P 500 (-8%), Microsoft (-10%), and Google (-15%) have all experienced negative returns during the same period. This outperformance underscores investor confidence in MicroStrategy's Bitcoin-centric strategy.
As of the latest trading data, MicroStrategy's stock price stands at $369.25, marking a substantial increase of $80.98, or 28.09%, over the past month. This surge reflects the market's positive reaction to both Bitcoin's upward trajectory and Strategy's aggressive accumulation strategy.
