The filing also stated that MicroStrategy would sell these Bitcoin (BTC) for cash if the market fluctuates. If this happens, the company will even be willing to sell its BTC below the original purchasing price.

Saylor is the CEO of MicroStrategy, and under his guidance, the company has amassed 130,000 Bitcoin. If the recent purchase goes through, the company will add an additional 24,000 Bitcoin to its holdings.

During the 2nd quarter of 2022, the non-cash digital impairment charge of Microstrategy was $917 million approximately. For now, the company has expressed no plans for the trading of its Bitcoin holdings. However, the company could engage in selling some of the BTC to generate quick cash.
