 <p>The clip may indicate the beginning of a comeback for celebrity endorsements of cryptocurrencies.</p>
 <p>Celebrities have promoted Bitcoin and other crypto projects during previous bull markets, but in some case have faced subsequent legal consequences.</p>
 <p>During the 2021 bull market, the now-defunct FTX exchange partnered with celebrities like Tom Brady, Kevin O’Leary, and Larry David to promote the exchange. However, the celebrities now face a class-action lawsuit after the crypto exchange collapsed.</p>
 <p>With Bitcoin trading at all-time high levels above $73,000, a similar trend is at play. Such endorsements have previously piqued the interest of retail investors in cryptocurrencies, helping to drive prices higher.</p>
 <p>Drake himself is not new to Bitcoin. During the 2022 Super Bowl, the rapper used Bitcoin to place bets.</p>
 <h2 id="michael-saylor-dumps-mstr">Michael Saylor Dumps $MSTR</h2>
 <p>Separately, a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) shows that Saylor sold 1,050 MicroStrategy (MSTR) shares on March 8. The sale happened at an average price of $1,415 per share.</p>
 <p>The executive chairman of MicroStrategy has sold a total of 205,000 MSTR shares over the years but has not made any purchases.</p>
 <p>His sale comes as MicroStrategy accumulates more Bitcoin. The analytics firm recently purchased 12,000 BTC for $821 million. It now holds 205,000 BTC purchased for $6.91 billion.</p>
