Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy Is Gearing Up to Raise $42B Over the Next 3 Years to Accumulate More Bitcoin

The plan, dubbed the “21/21 plan,” will consist of $21 billion in equity and $21 billion in fixed-income securities over the next three years

MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) is planning to raise $42 billion over the next three years to buy more Bitcoin ( BTC), the firm has announced.

The plan, dubbed the “21/21 plan,” will consist of $21 billion in equity and $21 billion in fixed-income securities over the next three years, according to a statement from MicroStrategy on Oct. 30.

At the time of publication, $42 billion in Bitcoin is equivalent to approximately 578,586 BTC, accounting for around 2.7% of the total Bitcoin supply.

Move to capitalize on BTC returns

Phong Le, president and CEO of MicroStrategy, explained that the move is to bolster the firm’s returns from holding Bitcoin.

“As a Bitcoin Treasury Company, we plan to use the additional capital to buy more Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset in a manner that will allow us to achieve higher BTC Yield,” Phong stated.

MicroStrategy reported that its current BTC year-to-date yield is “17.8%,” with plans to achieve an annual BTC yield of 6% to 10% between 2025 and 2027.

Crypto commentator BitcoinMiningStockGuy was bullish on the news after pointing out that $21 billion “is like the total market cap of all the public miners combined.”

Quant volatility researcher Ryan McGinnis also weighed in on the plan, opining that it is “escape velocity.”

“The only question is how wide will the gap be between MSTR, every other PubCo on Earth combined, and even countries.”

It comes only months after McGinnis' comments on March 6 that MicroStrategy is a “Monopoly of Value.”

MicroStrategy's recent convertible senior notes plan

In September, MicroStrategy completed an approximately $1.01 billion offering of 0.625% convertible senior notes due in 2028, with plans to use a portion of the proceeds for Bitcoin acquisition.

The private offering, which concluded on Sept. 19, targeted institutional investors and enabled the conversion into cash or MicroStrategy stock.
