Bloomberg highlighted that the company ended its Bitcoin buying spree that lasted for 12 consecutive weeks.

Since November 11, MicroStrategy bought BTC every Monday until January 27 when the company made its last purchase of 10,107 BTC.

The publication mentioned above also noted that these purchases have coincided with a record-breaking rally in Bitcoin’s price that had been driven by Trump’s embrace of crypto and the subsequent crypto-friendly agenda that the new administration brings.

During this period, MicroStrategy bought more than $20 billion in BTC, increasing its overall holdings to over 2% of BTC that will ever be minted.

Bloomberg also noted that The Tysons Corner, a Virginia-based enterprise software company turned leveraged Bitcoin proxy led by Michael Saylor aims to raise $42 billion of capital through 2027.

Today, Bitcoin’s price rebounded above $95,000 following an earlier dip to $92,000 levels triggered by multiple factors.

Bitcoin’s price drop coincided with a wider crypto market sell-off, following massive liquidations after Trump imposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China.

More Crypto Liquidations than Officially Reported

Earlier today, Bybit’s CEO, Ben Zhou said that the total real crypto liquidations are more than $2 billion, reaching between $8 and $10 billion.

In a post via X, he noted that Bybit’s 24-hour liquidations recorded on CoinGlass were around $333 million, however, this is not the entire amount.

The exchange has an API limitation on how many feeds are pushed out per second, and other exchanges reportedly practice the same to limit liquidation data.
