Strategy's Massive Bitcoin Investment and Dominance

During the economic downturn triggered by the pandemic in 2020, central banks reduced interest rates to support the economy, resulting in significant inflation. To protect his $500 million, Michael Saylor sought an alternative to conventional assets. Learning about Bitcoin, he recognized it as "digital gold"—a non-government-dependent way to preserve value. His acquisition of 21,400 BTC for $250 million in August 2020 marked the beginning, and now Strategy stands as the leading corporate holder with 582,000 coins in its portfolio.
