Saylor: Strategy Stays Overcollateralized Even If Bitcoin Crashes to $5K
MSTR sits 18% above its 52-week low of $81.81.
Summary
Michael Saylor asserts Strategy would remain overcollateralized even if Bitcoin plunged to $5,000 — a 95% drop from current levels. He notes the company has raised roughly $65 billion to buy Bitcoin, with most of that capital coming from equity rather than debt. This follows a brutal Q2 where Strategy posted an $8.2 billion net loss from an $8.3 billion unrealized Bitcoin impairment, yet grew holdings to 843,700 BTC. The statement directly addresses solvency fears that have dogged the stock amid Bitcoin's decline and the recent sale of 1,638 BTC by institutional funds. Saylor's framing of the capital stack as equity-heavy and resilient to extreme downside is a deliberate counter to liquidation risk narratives.
