Strategy's Unchanged Bitcoin Buying Strategy Still Guides Metaplanet's Investments
Simon Gerovich, CEO of Japan-based investment company Metaplanet, recently highlighted that Strategy's (formerly MicroStrategy) Bitcoin buying strategy remains unchanged. Despite market perception changing several times over the years, the company has consistently pursued the same approach.
Strategy began its Bitcoin journey in August 2020 when it added $250 million worth of Bitcoin to its balance sheet. This move was initially seen as unusual, but subsequent price increases saw Strategy's shares surge tenfold, earning the strategy a reputation as 'visionary' in the markets.
However, sharp declines in the Bitcoin market led to Strategy shares losing approximately 90% of their value, and the strategy being described as a failed experiment. Despite this, Strategy has continued its Bitcoin purchases uninterrupted and currently holds 843,775 BTC, worth over $50 billion at current prices.
