Bitcoin Market Reaction To MicroStrategy<\/h2>\n

This news follows Paul Tudor Jones<\/a> announcing that he wants to allocate 5% of his portfolio to Bitcoin. Giving Bitcoin the bump it needed to finally get over the $40k hump after news of Tesla resuming payments with Bitcoin pushed it closed. Bitcoin price is up 9% today and is currently a little over $40k.<\/p>\n

While this is by no means the bullish rally that investors have been hoping for but it shows that institutional investors are still optimistic about the future of the asset as it begins its climb back from its crash about a month ago.<\/p>\n

MicroStrategy currently owns $3.7 billion worth of Bitcoin according to today\u2019s prices, all of which were bought at an average of $24,000 per Bitcoin. This amount is higher than any other publicly-traded company in the world.<\/p>\n
