Year-end interest 8% with 20% off issuance! Are the perpetual preferred stocks of STRK of MicroStrategy tempting?
MicroStrategy, a self-proclaimed Bitcoin development company, halted its record of buying BTC for 12 consecutive weeks today, and will announce its Q4 2024 financial report after the US stock market closes.

MicroStrategy stated that the proceeds from this issuance will be used for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of BTC.
