MicroStrategy Incorporated, established in 1989 and based in Tysons Corner, Virginia, is a business intelligence (BI) software firm offering a platform for data analytics, visualization, and reporting to support data-driven decision-making. Publicly traded on NASDAQ (MSTR), it has drawn significant attention for its substantial Bitcoin investments, amassing over 250,000 BTC by late 2024, positioning it as one of the largest corporate holders of Bitcoin.
On May 20, 2025, MicroStrategy’s stock rose, closing at $417.50, up from $412.71 the previous day. On the same day, Coinbase’s stock fell, closing at $261.69, down from $264.70, and Robinhood’s stock dropped, closing at $64.63, down from $64.50.
MicroStrategy, originally was known to be a business intelligence company, which has now become a major corporate Bitcoin holder, with its stock often mirroring and amplifying Bitcoin’s price movements due to its aggressive acquisition approach.
The recent rally in MicroStrategy’s stock is driven by these 3 reasons.
1. 1. CEO Michael Saylor’s ambitious plan to transform MicroStrategy into a “Bitcoin development company.”
2. A recovery in Bitcoin prices or expectations of increased institutional adoption.
3. Optimism surrounding the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S.
while Coinbase is embroiled in a significant lawsuit with the SEC regarding its cryptocurrency staking services and token listings; and Robinhood has encountered regulatory challenges over its crypto trading practices, leading to the delisting of multiple tokens, which has impacted its cryptocurrency revenue.
There is potential for MicroStrategy’s stock to increase from its current price of $402 to the resistance level of $450. Robinhood’s stock could decline from its current price of $63.86 to $33 in the upcoming weeks as RSI has shown it has been overbought a few times on the 4hour chart.
