MicroStrategy Corporation disclosed in its most recent SEC filing that it has increased its Bitcoin holdings. When Bitcoin (BTC) printed green candles, causing the price to rise beyond $28,000, that’s when investors started piling in.

According to the reports, MicroStrategy bought an extra 1,045 Bitcoin between March 24 and April 4, 2023. The aggregate value of purchased Bitcoin is now $29.3 million. The average cost per Bitcoin throughout the accumulation phase was $28,016.
