Cryptocurrency Inches Higher as Bitcoin Steadies

Dow Jones01:44

1344 ET - Major cryptocurrencies are edging higher as bitcoin pushes back above the $60k mark. Focus among crypto investors is squarely on next steps for Michael Saylor's bitcoin-accumulation methods--with the bitcoin downturn enough to put Strategy Inc.'s bitcoin treasury underwater by roughly $10B to $15B. Today, Strategy announced that it might sell bitcoin to raise up to $1.25B in cash to help bolster its ability to pay dividends on its preferred-stock STRC. With that and $2.55B in cash, Saylor says Strategy can cover its STRC dividends for nearly 26 months. Strategy currently holds 847,363 BTC, worth over $50B. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com)
