On November 18, the company also revealed a massive Bitcoin purchase worth $4.6 billion, further solidifying its position as a major institutional investor in cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<h2>Convertible Notes Target Institutional Buyers<\/h2>\n<p>According to MicroStrategy\u2019s announcement, the funding will be raised via notes maturing on December 1, 2029, targeting institutional investors in the U.S. under Rule 144A and select international buyers under Regulation S. While the primary goal is to acquire more Bitcoin, the funds will also support broader corporate initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>The offering includes an option for purchasers to acquire an additional $250 million in notes. These notes can be converted into MicroStrategy\u2019s Class A common stock, cash, or a mix of both. The company will discuss the proposal in a webinar scheduled for November 19.<\/p>\n<p>On the same day, MicroStrategy announced the acquisition of 51,780 Bitcoin for $4.6 billion, as shared by Executive Chairman <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/cryptocurrencies\/michael-saylor-net-worth-microstrategy-chairman-and-bitcoin-bull\/\">Michael Saylor<\/a> on X (formerly Twitter). The purchase was made at an average price of $88,627 per Bitcoin, significantly boosting the company\u2019s total Bitcoin holdings to 331,200 coins. This equates to 1.57% of Bitcoin\u2019s total supply.<\/p>\n<p>This acquisition doubled the company\u2019s previous purchase volume and brought its total Bitcoin investment to $16.5 billion. MicroStrategy\u2019s average acquisition price for Bitcoin now stands at $49,847\u201447% below Bitcoin\u2019s all-time high of $93,477. Despite the gap, the company holds an unrealized profit of up to $13 billion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong> Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.
