During the same time frame, the stock value of MicroStrategy fell by 25% on January 24, 2024, dropping to $450.99. On January 10, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs, leading to the launch of nine new funds on the market. The company, known for its substantial Bitcoin holdings worth $7.5 billion, currently holds 189,150 BTC.
