This stock split paves the way for easier tokenization of MicroStrategy’s stock on various blockchains, reinforcing the company’s commitment to its Bitcoin strategy. Founder and chairman Michael Saylor has consistently highlighted the importance of including Bitcoin in investment portfolios as a long-term insurance plan.
As reported by Coinpedia, MicroStrategy currently holds over 226,000 Bitcoins, acquired through stock sales and revenue collection. The company’s bold approach has influenced other publicly traded companies, such as Metaplanet and Tesla, to adopt similar Bitcoin strategies.
Looking ahead, the adoption of Bitcoin by institutional investors is expected to grow, facilitated by spot BTC ETFs that offer increased liquidity and security.
