The collateralized BTC is currently held in the company\u2019s collateral account with a custodian that both MacroStrategy and Silvergate Capital authorized.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from purchasing more BTC, MacroStrategy plans to use the funds to pay fees, interest, and expenses related to the loan transaction. The firm also seeks to use the money to settle its general corporate costs or those of its parent company.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on this deal, Silvergate\u2019s CEO,\u00a0 Alan Lane, said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to add MicroStrategy to our growing list of SEN Leverage borrowers.

Using the capital from the loan, we\u2019ve effectively turned our bitcoin into productive collateral, which allows us to further execute against our business strategy.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In a subsequent <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/saylor\/status\/1508775019496849413?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1508775019496849413%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fdecrypt.co%2F96313%2Fmicrostrategy-takes-out-205m-bitcoin-backed-loan-buy-more-bitcoin\">tweet<\/a>, he maintained his bullish outlook on the flagship cryptocurrency,\u00a0 saying he would move the world if he had a long enough lever and BTC to place it on.<\/p>\n<p>This news comes after MicroStrategy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microstrategy.com\/en\/investor-relations\/press\/microstrategy-announces-proposed-private-offering-of-400m-of-senior-secured-notes_06-07-2021\">announced<\/a> MacroStrategy in June last year, saying it would transfer its BTC holdings, 92,079 BTC at the time, to the newly formed LLC division, which is registered in Virginia, US.<\/p>\n<p>MicroStrategy proceeded to <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/microstrategy-has-purchased-an-additional-1914-bitcoins\/\">increase<\/a> its BTC holdings to over 124,392 coins by the end of 2021. At the time, BTC was trading between $46,000-$48,000. Soon afterward, the market crashed, trapping BTC in the $30,000 level for the better part of this year.<\/p>\n<p>The leading crypto by market capitalization, however, entered a new bull cycle after breaching the $40,000 level in mid-March and maintaining its gains.
