BUSINESS intelligence firm MicroStrategy this week snapped up a further 4,300 Bitcoin to add to its massive crypto holdings.

The US company - headed up by Bitcoin evangelist Michael Saylor - took out a $205m loan to make the mega purchase. Saylor's latest move came from an agreement with Silvergate Bank which loaned the figure against the collateral of MicroStrategy's $820m in Bitcoin. The loan will mature in March 2025, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
