Michael Saylor, the founder of MicroStrategy, stirred excitement once again with a cryptic post over the weekend, a pattern that has become almost customary.
Sharing a screenshot from a website tracking MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings, Saylor hinted at potential developments with the caption, “Tomorrow everything will be different.”
The timing of his post coincided with the inauguration of Donald Trump, the first U.S. President openly supportive of cryptocurrencies. Speculation is rife that the new administration, influenced by a strong crypto lobby, may introduce measures to reduce regulatory pressures on the industry.
There’s even talk of creating a Bitcoin strategic reserve under Trump’s leadership, a move that could significantly boost the crypto market.
As of the latest data, MicroStrategy holds $47.23 billion worth of Bitcoin, including its most recent acquisition. The company has paid an average of $62,661 per BTC, and last week’s purchase alone has already yielded a profit of around $22 million, representing a 9% gain.
Saylor’s post has fueled anticipation of another major Bitcoin announcement from the company, a move that would align with his long-standing advocacy for the cryptocurrency.
After weeks of intense institutional activity that helped push Bitcoin above $100,000, inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs took a breather between May 6 and May 12.
Bitcoin’s rapid recovery beyond $104,000 has sparked a wave of optimism in crypto circles, but the bigger question remains: is this just the beginning?
While Bitcoin’s price has recently rebounded, the enthusiasm for spot ETFs appears to be cooling. Weekly inflows into U.S. Bitcoin ETFs have dropped sharply, signaling a pause in aggressive institutional accumulation.
A wave of optimism swept through global markets as the United States and China took decisive steps to de-escalate their long-running trade dispute.
