Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has become the subject of discussion among several firms, with a number of them bringing lawsuits against the Bitcoin (BTC) behemoth. It was recently reported that five law firms filed identical class action lawsuits against Strategy. Strategy Accused of Misleading Bitcoin Statements The prosecutors have charged the business intelligence software firm with securities fraud related to the Bitcoin treasury it has built over the past five years. They have accused the firm of making misleading investment statements, including some about Bitcoin and Strategy’s business, operations, and prospects. According to Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC, a nationally recognized law firm, “the anticipated profitability of the Company’s bitcoin-focused investment strategy and treasury operations was overstated.” Also, Strategy has been indicted for understating the various risks associated with Bitcoin’s volatility. Nor did it reveal the magnitude of losses Strategy could attract on the value of its digital assets following its adoption of ASU 2023-08. These firms are seeking to recover damages from Strategy. To this end, more entities are encouraged to join the class action. Strategy Acquires More Bitcoin This comes only a few days after Strategy added more BTC to its growing collection. Michael Saylor, the firm’s CEO, stated that the firm purchased an additional 245 Bitcoin units at a cost of around $26 million. Each digital coin was bought at an average price of $105,856. So far, the company has acquired a total of 592,345 BTC in Bitcoin holdings. Collectively, these were acquired for about $41.87 billion but are now worth nearly $60 billion, based on the present market value of Bitcoin. Metaplanet Copies Strategy’s Bitcoin Playbook Another firm with a strong Bitcoin accumulation strategy is Metaplanet, also known as Asian MicroStrategy. This Japanese financial giant also purchased 1,111 Bitcoins for approximately $118.2 million around the same time as Strategy’s recent acquisition. Each unit of Bitcoin was acquired at an average price of $106,408. Metaplanet’s total holdings have now reached 11,111 BTC, purchased for about $1.07 billion. The Bitcoin price is currently at $107,302.30, which places the value of Metaplanet’s holding at nearly $1.12 billion. The company has achieved a strong return, reporting a 306.7% yield this year, which is significantly above most market averages.
