Bitcoin advocate and MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) CEO Michael Saylor has shared his perspective on the cryptocurrency's volatility.

After Bitcoin hit a record high of $73,797.68 last week, it has since seen a nearly 13% decline from its peak, sparking discussions within the crypto community.

Saylor, known for his bullish stance on Bitcoin, shared his thoughts on social media platform X.

He described volatility as "vitality," suggesting that the current price movements are a natural part of the market's dynamics.

In another post on X, Saylor said that Bitcoin is winning and compared its position with the S&P 500, Nasdaq, gold, silver, and bonds.

This strategic accumulation of Bitcoin underscores MicroStrategy's commitment to the cryptocurrency as both an inflation hedge and a cash alternative.

MicroStrategy's aggressive Bitcoin acquisition strategy has continued into 2024, with the company's recent purchases being made at an average price of $67,382 per Bitcoin.

This brings the average cost of MicroStrategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to $35,160 per token, highlighting the company's long-term confidence in Bitcoin's value.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $65,441.76, down by 3% in the last seven days.
