According to Simply Bitcoin, an X (formerly Twitter) handle, Michael Saylor, the former CEO and Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy has revealed approximately 174,530 BTC in the company’s BTC portfolio. This makes the business intelligence company presently the largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally. 

Around late November, Saylor announced that the company had purchased another $593.3 million worth of Bitcoin at an average price of $36,785 per BTC. Due to Bitcoin skyrocketing to $41,000 highs this week, the company has made profits of $11,460 per Bitcoin with an average price of $30,252 on its massive Bitcoin stash.

Not only has the company gained massively from its large-scale Bitcoin investment, but MicroStrategy’s stocks (MSTR) went up by 8.2% following its purchase in November. MSTR shares were trading over 4% higher on Monday and its present market cap has hit $8.18 billion. The shares are up by 6.74% at the time of writing and with Bitcoin still maintaining its positive sentiment, there may be additional gains in the future.
