Pakinomist – MicroStrategy, the business intelligence firm with a huge bet on (BTC), has delivered remarkable returns to its investors. MicroStrategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor shared the significant achievement with the community in an X post.
MicroStrategy’s Record Bitcoin Dividend
Saylor highlighted that in the closing week, MicroStrategy (MSTR) posted a Bitcoin gain of 6,120 BTC. This reflects a successful return on its existing BTC holdings.
According to Saylor, the company recorded a BTC yield of 1.36% on its 45,000 BTC base, indicating that 6,120 BTC qualifies as profit. By benchmarking the asset at an approximate market price of 105,000 per BTC, Saylor stressed, that translates to $642.6 million.
This amount represents only the gain from MicroStrategy treasury operations. As noted by Saylor, this remarkable performance reinforces the company’s commitment to “maximize shareholder returns.”
The executive chairman of MicroStrategy clarified with his post that the company remains focused on using Bitcoin as a core of its strategy. That is, Bitcoin remains key to delivering long-term value to its shareholders.
Last week’s performance dwarfs that of two weeks ago, when gains for MSTR shareholders came from 1,440 BTC. That week, the cumulative value was only about $138 million. It is worth mentioning that BTC was trading at approximately $96,000 at the time.
Saylor’s Unwavering Bitcoin Optimism
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $104,542.64 within 24 hours. The asset has traded between a low of $102,768.62 and a high of $107,180.92.
Financial experts highlight that this BTC price movement shows that the coin could shock market participants with new highs in the first quarter of 2025.
Meanwhile, Saylor recently reiterated his unwavering belief in Bitcoin’s potential and value in cryptocurrency. The Bitcoin enthusiast maintains that no other cryptocurrency could compare or compete with BTC.
