Bitcoin Price Prediction: MicroStrategy To Raise $600 Million To Buy Yet More BTC As This Green Bitcoin Presale Dashes Towards $2 Million

The Bitcoin price soared almost 6% in the past 24 hours to trade for $66,836 as of 01:05 a.m. EST time on trading volume that jumped 120%.

The pioneer cryptocurrency is trying to reclaim its $68,999.99 all-time high, levels last seen in November 2021. However, while the price so far fallen short of that peak, the pioneer cryptocurrency’s market capitalization already set a new record during the evening session in New York.

According to CNBC Mad Money host Jim Cramer, the surge in the Bitcoin price is linked to traders buying BTC as a hedge against fiat currencies.

Other reasons for the prevailing surge in the Bitcoin price include the spot BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs) theme. This narrative continues to inspire capital inflows into the BTC market. According to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), BlackRock, the issuer of the IBIT spot BTC ETF, has filed to purchase ETFs for its Strategic Income Opportunities Fund.

An excerpt from the filing reads, “The Fund may acquire shares in exchange-traded products (“ETPs”) that seek to reflect generally the performance of the price of bitcoin by directly holding bitcoin (“Bitcoin ETPs”), including shares of a Bitcoin ETP sponsored by an affiliate of BlackRock.”

Beyond that, reports indicate that Stanford University’s Blyth Fund has spent approximately 7% of its portfolio to buy Bitcoin.

This purchase adds to the buying pressure that continues to drive the Bitcoin price.

MicroStrategy To Buy More BTC As Bitcoin Price Soars

The latest report shows that MicroStrategy, one of the largest Bitcoin buyers, is planning a proposed private offering of $600 million of convertible senior notes. The proceeds from these sales will be channeled towards absorbing more BTC. The report follows an announcement on X by CEO of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor.

“MicroStrategy intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to acquire additional Bitcoin and for general corporate purposes,” it said.

This revelation is likely to inspire the fear of missing out (FOMO), just like it did when the firm announced another voluminous BTC purchase of 3,000 BTC, worth approximately$155 million, recently. Over the last 24 hours, over $116 million short positions have been liquidated, Coinglass data shows.

With this, markets are anticipating a retest of the $69,000 psychological level, a threshold that would mark th first step towards BTC hitting a new all-time high.

Bitcoin Price Outlook As BTC Nears Its 2021 All-Time High

The Bitcoin price neared the $69K peak during the Monday US session, recording an intra-day high of $68,499. However, with the $69,000 peak holding as a resistance, where long’s take profit trades become filled, the Bitcoin price is posting a red Japanese candlestick against Tether (USDT) stablecoin  in the daily timeframe.

Notwithstanding, the upside potential remains viable, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) still northbound. This shows rising momentum, and is accentuated by the volume indicator, showing strong trading activity in the BTC market.

With the volume bars growing, it points to dominant or significant price levels. This is further shown with the large volumes of histogram bars of the Awesome Oscillator (AO) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The MACD above its signal line strengthens the bullish cycle for the Bitcoin price.

Increased buying pressure could see the Bitcoin price shatter $69,000, with the possibility of extending the gains to the $70,000 psychological level. This would mark a new all-time high.

On the flip side, if traders start cashing on the ground covered, the Bitcoin price could drop. Noteworthy, the Bitcoin price stands 20% north in the last week, 30% in the last fortnight, and 57% in the last month and 200% in the last year. Profit-taking could send it back to the $60,000 threshold before the next leg up, as markets anticipate the halving.

Meanwhile, with the Bitcoin market on a tear, investors might want to consider diversifying some of their gains into a new ICO with the ticker GBTC. This token is different from Grayscale’s GBTC ETF, and offers greater upside potential.

Promising Alternative To Bitcoin

GBTC is the ticker for the Green Bitcoin ecosystem. It is a crypto project that uniquely merges the legacy of Bitcoin with Ethereum’s eco-friendly attributes.
