As per current trade price calculation, Microstrategy is in $900 million profit with bitcoin investment strategy and interestingly this Bitcoin investment profit is equal to the company’s last 7 years of revenue from the non-Bitcoin businesses.
In late 2022, Saylor stepped down from the CEO position and decided to give his full time only for Bitcoin-focused initiatives, so that company could generate some revenue by withholding Bitcoin.
At the time, Saylor said that the company may give Bitcoin to other companies at some interest or will develop some special kind of software for Bitcoin-focused new use cases.
Amid the Bitcoin ordinals (BRC-20) hype during the first quarter of this year, Saylor said that Microstrategy can use BRC-20 tech to develop a Bitcoin-focused app.
