Earlier this month, CEO Michael Saylor dispelled rumors that the company is facing a margin call over its Bitcoin stash, calling it "much ado about nothing." However, these multiple rumors have made him Twitter-famous, he admitted, so he appreciates them.
Saylor explained that on its balance sheet worth several billions USD, there is only a $200 million loan that needs to be collateralized for the Bitcoin they hold. They can do it easily, according to the CEO, as the company has 10x overcollaterized on it now.
Prior to that interview with CNBC, Saylor assured the community that the company will not be hit by a margin call as long as the loan-to-value amount does not surpass the 50% level.
