The tech giant has raised an astounding $3 billion to fund another major Bitcoin purchase.</p>   
<p>What’s behind this aggressive bet on Bitcoin? Read on as we break down the numbers, the strategy, and the effects of this record-breaking move.</p>   
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-details-of-the-3-billion-fundraising-strong"><strong>Details of the $3 Billion Fundraising</strong></h2>   
<p>Earlier this week, MicroStrategy launched a private offering of <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/microstrategy-expands-private-offering-of-convertible-notes-to-2-6-billion-for-bitcoin-purchases/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$2.6 billion in 0% convertible senior notes</a> due in 2029. The offering exceeded expectations, raising an additional $400 million for a total of $3 billion. These funds will be used to purchase more Bitcoin, with the transaction expected to close by the end of this week.</p>   
<p>This follows a major acquisition earlier in the week when <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/microstrategys-bitcoin-holdings-hit-30-8-billion-with-largest-ever-51780-btc-buy/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MicroStrategy bought 51,780 BTC</a>, valued at approximately $4.6 billion. The company now holds 331,200 Bitcoins, making it one of the largest institutional Bitcoin investors globally.</p>   [post_titles_links postid="383369"]   
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bitcoin-s-rally-boosts-mstr">Bitcoin's Rally Boosts MSTR </h2>   
<p><a href="https://coinpedia.org/price-prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin’s price</a> recently soared to an all-time high (ATH) of $99,000, fueled by increasing institutional interest. This surge also lifted MicroStrategy’s stock (MSTR), which gained over 21% in just five days, closing at around $408 on Friday, November 22.</p>   
<p>MicroStrategy’s aggressive strategy has influenced other major firms to follow suit. For instance, MARA Holdings recently announced the closure of a $1 billion convertible debt offering at 0% interest, the largest ever for a Bitcoin mining company.</p>   
<p><strong>Institutional and National Adoption on the Rise</strong></p>   
<p>Beyond corporations, nation-states are showing increasing interest in Bitcoin, potentially marking a new era of adoption. At the same time, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, led by <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/blackrocks-1-9-billion-etf-debut-on-very-first-day-spark-massive-bullish-run-btc-eyes-100k/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BlackRock’s IBIT</a>, have been a significant success.</p>   
<p>Data shows that U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs now manage approximately $103.3 billion in assets, an impressive milestone within just one year of their introduction.</p>
