The remaining $30 million was added to the company’s newly created ‘USD Cash’ pool.
MSTR stock rose as much as 1.8% in pre-market trade, on track to post its largest monthly gain since November 2024. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the Bitcoin treasury slipped to ‘bullish’ from ‘extremely bullish’ over the past day.
