The index also reached a score of 68 on March 21, the highest since it surpassed 66 on November 16, 2021, just days after Bitcoin reached an all-time high of over $69,000 on November 10, 2021.

MicroStrategy has added billions of dollars in Bitcoin to its balance sheet, and as of April 5, it owned 140,000 BTC for a total purchase price of $4.17 billion.
With an average price of around $29,803 per coin, the recent price increase means MicroStrategy made a profit on its investment.
Despite the ongoing crypto bear market, MicroStrategy has consistently raised its BTC holdings since its initial purchase in August 2020.
