MicroStrategy, the world's largest publicly traded holder of Bitcoin, has announced another sale.
According to a statement from the company's founder, Michael Saylor, the company sold 1,690 bitcoins for approximately $108.6 million.
From August 3rd to August 9th, the company generated revenue of $108.6 million from sales executed at an average price of $64,262 per bitcoin.
MicroStrategy announced the sale of $BTC to fund dividends on preferred shares and the repurchase of MSTR stock.
In this context, the company also began August with sales, and the total number of bitcoins it owns has decreased to 840,447. Thus, MicroStrategy, which made no purchases in July, has not purchased $BTC for approximately 7 weeks, and this latest sale marks the fourth consecutive week of selling.
