Hardcore Bitcoin supporter and Bitcoin advisor to El Salvador president Max Keiser has made a stunning statement about MicroStrategy – the business intelligence company founded and spearheaded by Michael Saylor.
He stated that the potential for MicroStrategy’s stock price growth is basically limitless.
Keiser’s mega-bullish MSTR prediction
Max Keiser believes that many financiers who have been in the profession for many decades still fail to understand the successful strategy employed by MicroStrategy and why its stock price is skyrocketing.
He also believes that MicroStrategy’s stock “literally has no top.”
MicroStrategy buys more Bitcoin
On Thursday, Michael Saylor’s company announced that in June it had acquired another Bitcoin lump – 169 BTC for $11.4 million.
As of now, MicroStrategy holds a total of 226,500 Bitcoin tokens, a Bitcoin acquisition that followed the previous one made in the middle of June. In fiat, this is the equivalent of approximately $14,659,329,150 at the present exchange rate. This purchase was disclosed on July 31. The overall amount was bought for $8.3 billion at an average price of $36,821 per coin.
MicroStrategy's (MSTR) share price dropped by 6.5% in a trading session before the company revealed its second-quarter earnings on Thursday. MSTR fell alongside a major decline observed on both stock and cryptocurrency markets. Still, in the past year, MSTR had seen a 3x increase, while the Bitcoin price surged 2x during the same period.

The company reported a net loss of almost $103 million (roughly $5.74 per share) versus the $22.2 million they earned a year earlier ($1.52 per share). The losses reported came while MicroStrategy took an impairment charge on its Bitcoin holdings ($180.1 million) versus $24.1 million in Q2 last year.
Earlier this year, MicroStrategy raised money twice for additional allocation to Bitcoin by offering debt to investors. In March, they raised $500 million, but in the summer they started with the same goal but then increased it to $700 million. According to Chinese cryptocurrency journalist Colin Wu, the company plans to raise around $2 billion again to increase its Bitcoin bet even more.
Earlier today, Michael Saylor published a tweet, in which he showed how Bitcoin has helped it to surpass other tech companies by share price greatly.
