Saylor Is Hinting at Another Bitcoin Buy Before MSCI Rules on Strategy. What Happens to BTC if Strategy Has to Sell Instead?
Michael Saylor, executive chairman of Strategy Inc. (MSTR), hinted at another Bitcoin (BTC) purchase. MSCI will decide on November 11 whether to include MSTR in its global stock indexes. MSTR holds 848,517 BTC valued at $66 billion, but its stock has declined. Q3 results show Bitcoin gains boosted net income to $19.5 billion, while software revenue dipped. Dividend costs have risen, and funding for further Bitcoin purchases is uncertain.
