This resilient market outlook may have prompted <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/tag\/michael-saylor\/\">MicroStrategy\u2019s founder Michael Saylor<\/a> to reiterate his bullish stance on the crypto asset.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Saylor Tells Investors to Bet on Bitcoin\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>On the X app, Saylor shared a picture of two black dice with a lit Bitcoin logo engraved in each of them.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>He captioned the image \u201cBet on Bitcoin\u201d. For almost four years, Saylor has led MicroStrategy to acquire a huge holding in Bitcoin, not discouraged by the price of the coin at any time. His adoption of a Bitcoin strategy for the business Intelligence and software company has equally translated to massive profits. This is considering the current price of BTC and the price at the time of purchase.<\/p>\n<p>By his recent phrase on X, Saylor could be calling on investors to plunge their funds into BTC, or possibly adopt a strategy similar to that of his firm.<\/p>\n<p>His affinity towards the flagship cryptocurrency remain hinged on the heightened engagement or the enormous profit that MicroStrategy has bagged since it adopted the Bitcoin strategy. Last month, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/microstrategy-co-founder-bold-bitcoin-move-pays-off-400m-in-profits-revealed\/\">Saylor earned $400 million<\/a> from pre-planned daily sales of the enterprise software company\u2019s shares.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>His bullish BTC stance is significantly reflected in the volume of BTC that MicroStrategy holds.
