MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor said Friday the firm had completed a $1.05 billion debt offering, a raise that will allow the business intelligence company to buy another $1 billion in bitcoin.
The raise is part of MicroStrategy’s dual business strategy of developing business intelligence software and also literally just buying as much bitcoin (BTC, +7.64%) as it possibly can. MicroStrategy already has 71,039 of the coins.
“MicroStrategy estimates that the net proceeds from the sale of the notes will be approximately $1.03 billion, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by MicroStrategy,” the company said.
