MicroStrategy, a software company, has invested $25.6 billion into Bitcoin and now holds 2% of all Bitcoin in circulation. The company's strategy is heavily tied to Bitcoin's unpredictable market, and its success relies on Bitcoin's price. Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy's co-founder, plans to raise $42 billion to buy more Bitcoin, believing it is the future of corporate finance. However, analysts warn that if Bitcoin's price drops below $30,000, MicroStrategy may be forced to sell parts of its Bitcoin holdings to cover debts, potentially worsening its financial situation. MicroStrategy has tried to persuade other corporations, like Microsoft, to diversify their balance sheets with Bitcoin, but so far, it hasn't been successful. Despite the risks, MicroStrategy's stock price has skyrocketed by 540% this year.
