Saylor BTFD - a little

In my opinion, Saylor played a large hand in triggering the last crypto bull-run. He used Microstrategy's cash reserves, capability to raise money via stock sales and taking on more debt, to keep stacking Bitcoin.

As per the lastest Form 8-K, MSTR acquired 480 more Bitcoin for $10 million from May 3, 2022 to June 28.

Starting August 2020, Microstrategy has bought, in aggregate, 129'698 BTC at a total cost of $3,977 billion for an average price of $30'664.

While his book gains from the early buys protected him on paper so far, a Bitcoin price of $20'135 is now wreaking havoc on MSTRs balance sheet. The loss from BTC balloned to $1,365 billion.
