    • i think if it hits 43K the survival of his company Microstrategy becomes an issue/jonny_quest_lives
    • he actually used his company's money to acquire BTC so his personal risk exposure is 0.jonny_quest_lives
    • August 2020, Microstrategy announces it would make BTC its primary reserve asset. And it proceeded to buy $425m worth of bitcoin, reducing its cash reserves 90%jonny_quest_lives
    • December 2020 Microstrategy announced its intention to borrow $650m to invest in yet more bitcoin...jonny_quest_lives
    • well look up his personal net worth, it might be tied to the company so if the company tanks...grafician
    • NBQ is already standing by with a new #lossporn video about Microstrategy this time?grafician
    • It's a bit difficult to find a source that has tracked all the Microstrategy BTC purchases chronologically ...jonny_quest_lives
    • but i think $43K per bitcoin is probably a huge red fllag for this company as BTC is now their primary reserve asset and they took on debt to increase theirjonny_quest_lives
    • BTC holdings... back indecember 2020... also as @grafician has pointed out they seem to have bad timing when acquire more BTC... Their 2021 BTC buys have to bejonny_quest_lives

    • "MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings comprise 97% of its market cap of $4.76 billion."grafician
    • from that article: he bought a few days ago again at $55K for $15M in CASH lolgrafician
    • also he will not sell as he is a nuts at this point, all bitcoin "maximalists" are basically nutsgrafician
    • Microstrategy's 1st major BTC purchase in 2020 was to take their $425 million cash reserves and buy BTC outright... Seemed crazy...jonny_quest_lives
    • and according to their financials they took a $44.2 impairment on that investment.... because duh BTC is volatile... their response?jonny_quest_lives
    • Take on additional $650 million in debt to buy more... Taking money you don't have acquiring a speculative asset is risky as an individual...jonny_quest_lives
    • Doing that on a corporate level is at the least gross negligence and or possibly corporate fraud.jonny_quest_lives
    • It's not like Microstrategy is Microsoft... By all appearances been running on fumes since the dot com era but they do employ 2000 or so people..jonny_quest_lives
    • so his decisions as the majority vote holder on the Microstrategy board have consequences.jonny_quest_lives
