Jim Chanos, a well-known Wall Street short seller, stated at the Sohn Investment Conference in New York that he is engaging in an aggressive long-short trade involving MicroStrategy and Bitcoin. Chanos is bullish on Bitcoin while shorting MicroStrategy, believing that the company holds a large amount of Bitcoin through leverage, and its stock price has a significant premium relative to its Bitcoin holdings. Chanos pointed out that MicroStrategy and its imitators promote the idea of buying Bitcoin through corporate structures to retail investors, and valuing it at a similar premium is unreasonable. He stated that by shorting MicroStrategy stock and buying Bitcoin, it's akin to buying at $1 and selling at $2.5. Over the past year, MicroStrategy's stock price has risen by more than 220%, while Bitcoin's increase over the same period is nearly 70%.
