Bitcoin\u2019s latest price slump wiped out over $100 million in value from MicroStrategy\u2019s crypto portfolio. However, despite suffering devastating losses in the past 24 hours, the company is still up almost 50 percent the 38,250 BTC it bought this year, showing that there\u2019s no place for weak hands in billion-dollar NASDAQ companies.<\/p>\n

A billion-dollar company with a Bitcoin treasury<\/h2>\n

Despite being a billion-dollar NASDAQ-listed company, MicroStrategy wasn\u2019t a household name for many in the crypto industry. However, all of that changed when the company announced that it had invested a total of $425 million in bitcoin this year, acquiring 38,250 BTC across several months.<\/p>\n

The company shared its new investment plan with the SEC, saying that its treasury will consist of two types of assets, one of them being Bitcoin. The world\u2019s largest digital currency is set to serve as the primary treasury reserve asset on an ongoing basis, the company said, adding that it might be used for future potential share repurchasing.<\/p>\n

Given the fact that the company acquired the 38,250 BTC for an average purchase price of $11,111 per coin, Bitcoin\u2019s massive rally to $19,400 this week meant that the company\u2019s portfolio was, at one point, worth over $724 million. Recording a 75 percent increase, MicroStrategy\u2019s Bitcoin investment was touted by many as extremely bullish for the market.<\/p>\n

Even with $120M wiped out from its portfolio, MicroStrategy is still up 50% on BTC<\/h2>\n

However, Bitcoin\u2019s massive slump has drastically affected its portfolio, with the company recording a loss of over $100 million in a single day.<\/p>\n

Worth $742 million on Nov. 25, MicroStrategy\u2019s Bitcoin investment slumped to just $621 million when Bitcoin\u2019s price dropped to $16,260 at one point today.<\/p>\n

With $120 million wiped out from its portfolio, the public began labeling MicroStrategy as one of the biggest losers of the day in terms of aggregate sum lost.<\/p>\n

However, even with such a massive loss, the company\u2019s investment in an asset as risky as Bitcoin turned out to be a smart decision overall. Given the fact that the company acquired most of its Bitcoin holdings at an average price of $11,111 per coin, Bitcoin\u2019s slump to $16,260 has put the company\u2019s portfolio gains at only <\/i>46 percent.<\/p>\n
