It’s worth noting that the move was first <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/microstrategy-to-raise-another-700m-for-bitcoin-buying-via-debt-offering/" data-wpel-link="internal" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">announced</a> on Sept. 17th, when the company intended to raise $700 million. They raised over a billion, hence the “upsized offering,” part.
The current value of MicroStrategy’s BTC holdings is around $15.8 billion. This means they’re sitting on paper profits of around $6 billion or approximately 60%.
