MicroStrategy Launches $1.75 Billion Convertible Notes Offering to Buy More Bitcoin

MicroStrategy, a prominent business intelligence firm and major Bitcoin investor, has unveiled plans to issue $1.75 billion in convertible senior notes due in 2029.

The offering, targeted at qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. investors, may also include an option for initial purchasers to buy an additional $250 million in notes. The company intends to use the proceeds to acquire more Bitcoin and for general corporate purposes.

The zero-coupon notes, which carry no regular interest or accretion, will mature on December 1, 2029, unless redeemed, converted, or repurchased earlier.

Starting December 2026, MicroStrategy reserves the right to redeem part or all of the notes, provided at least $75 million remains outstanding. Investors may convert their holdings into cash, MicroStrategy Class A common stock, or a combination of both, depending on the company’s choice.
