CryptoQuant expects the Bitcoin price to stay inside the consolidating range until 2025. The price targets for Bitcoin range between $70,000 and $55,000 if the bearish trend continues.
MicroStrategy CFO Andrew Kang stated that the cash reserve enhances the liquidity buffers that are applied as the mNAV stays above one. t an estimated Bitcoin price near $92,700, the company can reportedly manage operating costs and dividend commitments for more than three years, without having to sell Bitcoins except for last resort options.
