Michael Saylor Issues Bitcoin Statement as BTC Briefly Reclaims $62,000
Michael Saylor, the founder of MicroStrategy, the largest single corporate holder of Bitcoin, shared his thoughts on a recent price surge of the cryptocurrency on social media.
### Bitcoin Briefly Reclaims $62,000
Between Thursday and the early hours of Friday, Bitcoin, the world’s leading cryptocurrency, experienced a significant increase of 9%, reaching a price level of $62,440. This surge represents an approximate 25% rise over the past few days.
Several factors contributed to this price jump, notably a major court victory for Ripple and XRP over the SEC. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse emphasized that this win is significant not only for his company but also for the global cryptocurrency industry at large.
However, Bitcoin faced a slight correction today, experiencing a 3.3% drop and falling back into the $60,360 range.
In response to the brief surge above $62,000, Michael Saylor posted a Bitcoin-themed image along with a message encouraging users to “Solve the Puzzle with ₿itcoin.”
