9 key BTC principles for MicroStrategy’s success
Bitcoin evangelist Saylor tweeted that “$MSTR is in an exclusive relationship with $BTC,” once again admitting that Bitcoin has been the major driver for the MSTR price over the past years.
The “Bitcoin principles” shared by Saylor in that tweet are the following:
1. Buying and holding Bitcoin indefinitely, exclusively, and securely.
2. Prioritizing MSTR common stock long-term value creation.
3. Treating all investors with respect, consistency, and transparency.
4. Structuring MSTR to outperform Bitcoin via intelligent leverage.
5. Acquiring Bitcoin continually, while achieving positive BTC yield.
6. Growing rapidly and responsibly subject to market dynamics.
7. Issuing innovative fixed income securities backed by BTC.
8. Maintaining healthy, robust, and pristine balance sheet.
9. Promoting global adoption of Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset.
This week, MicroStrategy announced a plan to raise a mind-boggling $42 billion over the next three years to buy an additional amount of Bitcoin. The company already holds approximately $18 billion worth of BTC—the fiat equivalent of 252,220 Bitcoins.
