MicroStrategy has planned to pour more cash into Bitcoin as it is ready to add more tokens of the flagship coin to its balance sheet. The business intelligence firm has sold senior convertible notes worth $1.05 billion. These convertible notes are destined to mature in February 2027.

Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, has announced in a tweet that MicroStrategy has completed a “$1.05 billion offering of convertible notes at 0% coupon”. He further added that there would be a 50% conversion premium with Bitcoin funds. 

Convertible Senior Notes and Intentions of MicroStrategy

The question might still arise in the minds of readers that what is a senior convertible note? A senior convertible note is a debt security in which the note can be converted into the amount of the issuer’s share, which is predefined. The selling of $1.05 billion worth of senior convertible notes by MicroStrategy has also allowed accredited investors to buy a $150 million aggregate principal number of notes. MicroStrategy can also redeem them for cash and common stocks or maybe both of them.

Previously, the Virginia-based company was expecting $600 million worth of senior convertible notes. $1.03 billion is the expected net gained from the sales on notes. MicroStrategy wants to make use of net proceeds to buy more tokens of the top digital currency.

MicroStrategy’s Plan

MicroStrategy offers its services in the field of the business intelligence sphere, where it provides solutions and expert opinions. But referring to its huge investments in Bitcoin, one might think it’s a big crypto trading firm.

MicroStrategy World 2021, an annual user conference, was held in January to educate investors about cryptocurrency. There was also talk of using Bitcoin as a primary reserve asset. The event was dubbed as “Bitcoin for corporations”.

The acquisition of Bitcoin in the recent past has also been very beneficial and valuable for software expert companies. MicroStrategy announced a $400 million private offering sold at $650 million, giving MicroStrategy a gracious $150 million margin. MicroStrategy further bought $10 million worth of Bitcoin earlier this month. 

Currently, the leading digital currency is trading at $56,056 after an increase of 6.33% in the past 24-hours.
