Michael Saylor, the CEO of MicroStrategy, recently discussed his company’s investment in Bitcoin on CNBC, outlining the significant gains MicroStrategy has achieved by holding a large amount of the cryptocurrency.&nbsp; 
The company’s investment strategy has seen its stock increase by 825% since it started accumulating Bitcoin, a rise that exceeds even that of tech giant Nvidia. Despite these gains, Peter Schiff, <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/peter-schiff-celebrates-golds-peak-as-bitcoin-struggles/">always a critic of BTC investments</a>, offered a cautious perspective.&nbsp; 
Peter Schiff <a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1833144216479731923">noted</a> that MicroStrategy’s shares are trading 40% under their highest value in the past year and 6% below their peak in 2021, raising doubts about the durability of their recent financial performance. He warned that the company’s stock could potentially experience additional drops. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 What a bunch of nonsense. CNBC is too beholden to their crypto advertisers to really push back against your false statements. MSTR is down 40% from its 52-week high and is 6% below its 2021 high. The actually returns are not nearly as rosy as you describe and will soon get worse.

At present, MicroStrategy’s shares are valued at around $121, up more than 90% since the year began. Bitcoin itself has also seen a substantial rise, increasing 30% over the past nine months.&nbsp; 
It’s noteworthy that Saylor, despite his public support for MicroStrategy’s strategy, sold some of his company shares earlier in the year. This sale occurred in late April when shares reached $173, followed by a significant drop of more than 37% in their value that month. 
This situation underscores the volatile nature of investing in cryptocurrencies and their impact on related stocks. 
While some industry observers like Saylor view cryptocurrency as a potent vehicle for corporate growth and shareholder value, skeptics like <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/peter-schiff-challenges-bitcoin-bullish-sentiment-amid-market-slump-questions-real-institutional-demand-for-cryptocurrency/">Schiff warn</a> of the risks and potential instability associated with such strategies.
