MicroStrategy Reports 38.7% QTD and 63.3% YTD BTC Yields

For the QTD, the company has recorded relatively high BTC yields of 38.7 while the YTD yield stands at 63.3. This latest move is evidence of MicroStrategy’s ongoing mission of growing its Bitcoin holdings, a direction that has been rewarding up to this point.

The decision to expand its holdings comes after a new high has been recorded on the Bitcoin value. Then, after Trump’s victory in the November presidential election, Bitcoin reached a record high above $99K. The Trump campaign was quite specific in that the candidate endorsed crypto, often referring to himself as the “crypto president.” It made it more popular and increased market confidence which was something this bold stance did.

It is this trend that is changing the approach to the portfolios of large subjects, some of which are investing in digital assets as an insurance policy against the state of the world economy.
