The MicroStrategy corporation has recently made numerous strategic actions drawing increased attention to their market position. The business data company has joined the Russell 1000 and has been added to the MSCI World Stock Index. They have invested heavily into Bitcoin, with some wondering if they may have been better off investing in Ethereum. Their embrace of Bitcoin has allowed them to unveil a decentralized ID platform on Bitcoin known as MicroStrategy Orange. Regardless, the company's heavy Bitcoin investments haven't been without controversy, as their stock has experienced fluctuation in recent times. They've incurred a Q1 Operating Loss of $53.1M after an impairment charge yet continue to purchase more Bitcoin. On a positive note, their revenue rose by 10.3% after some of these Bitcoin purchases. MicroStrategy has been compared to Coinbase Global and distinctively shows a large profit, with unrealized Bitcoin profit of $4.9 Billion. In light of all the bitcoin investments, there have been talks around S&P 500 eligibility amidst the speculation of future Bitcoin runs.
