Michael Saylor who recently posted on his twitter feed that "Bitcoin is the Kingmaker", he is a very huge supporter of Bitcoin and has never been shy of talking about it, he has also said in the past "that Bitcoin is the future", and also that he thinks Bitcoin is Superior to Gold, which I totally agree with him on that, although some may disagree but here the facts over the last 10years Bitcoin has performed way better than Gold. Michael Saylor started staking up and buying Bitcoin since August 2020.

Both MicroStrategy and Tesla are holding Bitcoin on their balance sheet, and has made huge profit from holding Bitcoin, few days ago Elon musk's company Tesla was up $1 Billion in profit before the big Bitcoin ETF approval by SEC, MicroStrategy is up $3.54 billion in profit as well doubling the company's initial Bitcoin investment.

MicroStrategy is not an investment company so it's required to report Bitcoin as an intangible asset. What this means is that Bitcoin will be recorded on the company’s balance sheet at its historic cost and can be impaired if the value drops. However, if the price of Bitcoin increases, the value cannot be revised. MicroStrategy has already written to the Financial Accounting Standards Board, stating, source

“This disconnect between an entity’s financial statements and the economic reality of its financial condition and results of operations creates confusion and fails to provide investors, analysts, and the general public with the information they need to make an informed assessment of an entity’s current and future prospects.”source
