Michael Saylor hints at another BTC purchase, company holds BTC worth $58.5 billions

ChainCatcher reported that Strategy Chairman Michael Saylor hinted at another Bitcoin purchase after Bitcoin's price dropped on Sunday evening to a two-week low of $87,600. Saylor posted on X, "Back to More Orange Dots," suggesting another Bitcoin acquisition.

Strategy's most recent purchase was on December 12, when it acquired 10,624 BTC, marking the largest purchase since late July. Strategy currently holds 660,624 BTC, valued at approximately $58.5 billion at current prices, with an average cost of $74,696 per Bitcoin. Some analysts speculate that the selling pressure is due to the Bank of Japan's upcoming interest rate decision.

Prediction platform Polymarket shows a 98% probability that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates by 0.25% this Friday. Justin d'Anethan, Head of Research at market advisory firm Arctic Digital, stated that expectations of a rate hike in Japan are prompting traders to take profits, and prices may decline further. Analyst Sykodelic believes the market has fully priced in the Bank of Japan's actions.
