🚨 New negativity against MicroStrategy – are we falling again?
Friends, more and more people on social media are comparing MicroStrategy to LUNA and FTX, calling it the next potential liquidation that could drag the market down.
MicroStrategy has long been a symbol of corporate BTC accumulation.
🔤 Since its first purchase in 2020, the company has accumulated more than 193,000 BTC, using not only its own funds but also borrowed capital.
The main question: Could MicroStrategy be forced to liquidate its Bitcoin assets? Many are concerned that a drop in BTC price could lead to a margin call and mass selling.
Let's break down the real situation.
🔎 How are MicroStrategy’s finances structured?
1️⃣ Debt Structure:
• $7.2 billion in total debt, of which $2.2 billion is secured by BTC.
• Convertible bonds ($2.2 billion) with low interest rates and maturities in 2028-2030.
• $2.2 billion in fixed-rate bonds with no liquidation requirements.
• $2.8 billion in secured loans, with BTC serving as collateral.
2️⃣ Margin Calls and Liquidation:
• MicroStrategy took a margin loan from Silvergate ($205 million) secured by BTC, but this loan was paid off in 2023.
• The company currently has no urgent margin loan obligations that could trigger forced liquidation.
• If BTC drops to $10,000, MicroStrategy could still provide additional BTC as collateral.
📥 Why isn’t MicroStrategy liquidating?
• The company does not use highly risky leverage.
• Its long-term obligations have low interest rates and deferred maturities.
• Margin calls are unlikely due to the flexible collateral structure.
❕ Key takeaway: the myth of MicroStrategy being forced to liquidate is an exaggeration. The company confidently continues its BTC-buying strategy and is not at risk, even during major market upheavals 🔥
