Michael Saylor, the former CEO of MicroStrategy and current executive chairman of Strategy, has dropped hints suggesting that his firm might be preparing for another substantial purchase of Bitcoin. This development comes as Bitcoin experiences renewed upward momentum, surpassing the $100,000 mark for the first time in months.

On May 11, Saylor shared a screenshot of the company's Bitcoin portfolio tracker on the platform X, along with the phrase \"connect the dots.\" Although concise, this post followed a familiar pattern where Saylor often uses ambiguous messages prior to official announcements, typically signaling the firm's intention to increase its Bitcoin holdings.

According to the Saylor Tracker platform, Strategy currently holds 555,450 BTC, which is valued at over $58 billion. This makes Strategy the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin globally.

Influenced by Strategy's aggressive Bitcoin strategy, several other companies have also started investing in the cryptocurrency. For instance, Japan-based Metaplanet, which now owns more than 5,000 BTC, has been likened to MicroStrategy in Asia. Recently, the firm established a U.S.-based division to expand its Bitcoin strategy internationally.

Meanwhile, competition within the U.S. corporate Bitcoin sector is intensifying. A leading banking institution, Cantor Fitzgerald, in collaboration with stablecoin issuer Tether, has initiated a joint venture worth $3 billion aimed at creating a specialized Bitcoin treasury firm. Additionally, Vivek Ramaswamy’s Strive has merged with Asset to become another player in this domain.

Strategy’s potential purchase coincides with Bitcoin’s recent 10% price increase over the past week, pushing its value above $100,000 for the first time since February. As of the latest reports, BTC is trading around $104,621, only 4% below its all-time high of $109,021 recorded in January.

Market analysts from Santiment highlighted that the current bullish sentiment in the market could lead to a short-term correction. They observed that excessive retail participation and media attention often correlate with local market peaks.

Despite these observations, Saylor remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s long-term prospects. He believes that Bitcoin should already be priced at $150,000 were it not for the recent selling pressure, which he attributes to short-term holders locking in profits. Nevertheless, he anticipates long-term investors will sustain the upward trend in the coming weeks.
