Cryptocurrency Trading Recommendations – August 21 (U.S. Session)

Bitcoin, which surged above $79,000, has finally crossed the very level that served as a psychological dividing line for the world's largest corporate holder of the asset for several months.

Strategy's reserve of 840,447 bitcoins, acquired at an average price of $75,385 per coin for a total of $63.36 billion, has returned to profitability for the first time since the spring of this year. At a price of around $77,000, the company's unrealized profit was approximately $1.4 billion, or about 2.4% of the position's value, and this figure increased further as the price continued to rise toward $79,000.

The scale of the reversal becomes clearer when compared with the recent past. When Bitcoin fell to $58,000 in July, Strategy's unrealized loss reached approximately $13 billion, equivalent to 20.4% of the total acquisition cost, while just a week ago the company was sitting on paper losses of around $10.6 billion. The pressure from these losses forced Saylor to break his long-standing principle of "never sell a single satoshi." Since spring, the company has sold part of its reserve five times, realizing a combined loss of more than $102 million and selling approximately 6,916 bitcoins to fund dividends on STRC preferred shares. The return of the price above the average acquisition cost puts all these painful decisions in a different light: the company sold the asset exclusively below the breakeven point, while it continues to hold its core position at a level where it is now generating a profit.
