Bankless Take:
MicroStrategy’s relentless accumulation cements its status as a corporate 
Bitcoin pioneer. By leveraging equity and fixed-income raises, the firm is aligning its long-term vision with Bitcoin’s scarcity. However, sustained success hinges on BTC’s appreciation; significant market downturns could amplify shareholder risks. Michael Saylor’s advocacy could inspire broader institutional adoption, further intertwining Bitcoin with corporate finance.
