Strategy Reports $5.91B Loss in Q1

Since the beginning of Q1, Bitcoin’s price dropped from its all-time high of $109K to nearly $74K. This caused an 11.82% loss, making it the worst quarter. 

Meanwhile, due to Bitcoin’s poor performance, the Strategy reported a net loss of $5.91 billion on its Bitcoin holdings. 

One of the key reasons for the Bitcoin price drop was the global tension caused by Trump’s trade tariffs.

Despite these losses, MicroStrategy’s decision to buy more Bitcoin has had a positive impact on its stock price. MicroStrategy’s stock (MSTR) surged by 10%, hovering around $300 in just 24 hours and 15% over the past week.
