MicroStrategy 董事长 Michael Saylor 从股票销售和比特币持有中获利颇丰。通过股票出售计划，Saylor 赚取了 3.7 亿美元，而他个人的比特币和 MicroStrategy 股票价值估计为 34.9 亿美元，自年初以来增加了近 10 亿美元。 MicroStrategy 的股价随着比特币的上涨而飙升，该公司持有超过 214,000 个比特币代币，价值 137 亿美元，为 Saylor 的净资产贡献了约 40 亿美元。

MicroStrategy's Billionaire CEO Reaps Massive Gains Amidst Bitcoin Surge

MicroStrategy 亿万富翁首席执行官在比特币飙升中获得巨额收益

MicroStrategy's Executive Chairman, Michael Saylor, has amassed a staggering fortune through a combination of stock sales and burgeoning Bitcoin holdings, as revealed in recent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

最近向美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 提交的文件显示，MicroStrategy 执行董事长 Michael Saylor 通过股票销售和不断增加的比特币持有量积累了惊人的财富。

Since the beginning of 2023, Saylor has realized a staggering $370 million through the sale of hundreds of thousands of MicroStrategy shares under a pre-arranged stock-sale plan. However, this figure pales in comparison to his colossal paper profits.

自 2023 年初以来，Saylor 通过根据预先安排的股票出售计划出售数十万股 MicroStrategy 股票，实现了惊人的 3.7 亿美元收入。然而，这个数字与他巨额的账面利润相比显得相形见绌。

As of Friday, Saylor's combined holdings of MicroStrategy shares (excluding those in the stock-sale plan) and his self-disclosed personal Bitcoin stash were valued at approximately $3.49 billion. This represents an impressive 60% gain, or over $1 billion, since the year's start.

截至周五，Saylor 持有的 MicroStrategy 股票（不包括股票出售计划中的股票）和他自我披露的个人比特币储备总价值约为 34.9 亿美元。自年初以来，这意味着增长了 60%，即超过 10 亿美元，令人印象深刻。

Moreover, since the crypto sector's resurgence in early 2023, Saylor's shares and Bitcoin holdings have generated paper gains of nearly $3 billion.

此外，自 2023 年初加密行业复苏以来，Saylor 的股票和比特币持有量已产生近 30 亿美元的账面收益。

MicroStrategy's stock value has skyrocketed since January, buoyed by Bitcoin's ascent to new heights, fueled in part by the introduction of new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tracking the digital asset. Shares of MicroStrategy have soared by 86%, adding to the over 300% surge witnessed in 2023. Despite a 2.8% decline on Friday, the shares closed at approximately $1,174. Meanwhile, Bitcoin has rallied by 46% in 2024 and has catapulted nearly 300% since the start of 2023.

自 1 月份以来，由于比特币升至新的高度，MicroStrategy 的股价一路飙升，部分原因是跟踪数字资产的新交易所交易基金 (ETF) 的推出。 MicroStrategy 股价已飙升 86%，继 2023 年涨幅超过 300% 后，尽管周五下跌 2.8%，但股价收于约 1,174 美元。与此同时，比特币在 2024 年上涨了 46%，自 2023 年初以来已上涨近 300%。

Saylor, once a crypto skeptic who became a fervent believer, has transformed MicroStrategy into a proxy for Bitcoin's success. Over the past four years, the company has acquired billions of dollars worth of Bitcoin, sometimes employing leverage. Under Saylor's leadership as CEO in 2020, MicroStrategy made its initial Bitcoin purchase, spending $250 million to acquire 21,454 tokens at an average price of approximately $12,000 each.

Saylor 曾经是一名加密货币怀疑论者，后来成为一名狂热的信徒，他已将 MicroStrategy 转变为比特币成功的代表。在过去的四年里，该公司收购了价值数十亿美元的比特币，有时甚至利用杠杆手段。 2020 年，在 Saylor 担任首席执行官的领导下，MicroStrategy 首次购买了比特币，斥资 2.5 亿美元购买了 21,454 个代币，平均价格约为每个代币 12,000 美元。

Fast forward to today, MicroStrategy's Bitcoin holdings have ballooned to over 214,000 tokens, representing roughly 1% of all Bitcoin in circulation. At Saturday's price of around $64,000 per Bitcoin, the company's Bitcoin trove is valued at approximately $13.7 billion. Given Saylor's ownership of around 12% of MicroStrategy's shares, his stock holdings, combined with his personal stash of over 17,000 Bitcoin, contribute significantly to his net worth of just under $4 billion, as estimated by Forbes.

快进到今天，MicroStrategy 的比特币持有量已激增至超过 214,000 个代币，约占流通中比特币总量的 1%。按周六每比特币约 64,000 美元的价格计算，该公司的比特币宝库价值约为 137 亿美元。据《福布斯》估计，鉴于 Saylor 拥有 MicroStrategy 约 12% 的股份，他所持有的股票加上他个人持有的超过 17,000 枚比特币，为他的净资产做出了巨大贡献，净资产接近 40 亿美元。

MicroStrategy has yet to respond to Fortune's request for comment.

MicroStrategy 尚未回应《财富》杂志的置评请求。

Saylor's investment journey has not been without its share of setbacks. During the dot-com boom, he ascended to billionaire status with MicroStrategy, but in 2000, the company's disclosure of a 25% overstatement of its 1999 revenue sent shockwaves through the industry. The ensuing accounting scandal cost Saylor $6 billion in a single day, marking the largest individual loss in a 24-hour period at the time. Subsequently, the SEC accused him of violating federal securities laws, which he settled by paying $8 million without admitting wrongdoing.

塞勒的投资之旅并非没有遇到挫折。在互联网泡沫时期，他凭借 MicroStrategy 一跃成为亿万富翁，但在 2000 年，该公司披露其 1999 年收入夸大了 25%，引起了整个行业的震动。随后发生的会计丑闻让塞勒单日损失 60 亿美元，创下当时 24 小时内最大的个人损失。随后，SEC 指控他违反了联邦证券法，他在不承认不当行为的情况下支付了 800 万美元和解。

Later, Saylor's decision to embrace Bitcoin was met with skepticism from investors and analysts. In 2022, David Trainer of research firm New Constructs characterized Saylor's Bitcoin purchases as a "gross misallocation" of investors' capital.

后来，塞勒拥抱比特币的决定遭到了投资者和分析师的怀疑。 2022 年，研究公司 New Constructs 的 David Trainer 将 Saylor 购买比特币的行为描述为投资者资本的“严重错配”。

"In terms of madmen, Saylor is 'Elon Junior,' without the business talent," Trainer remarked at the time.

“就疯子而言，塞勒是‘小埃隆’，没有商业天赋，”特雷纳当时评论道。

For a time, the naysayers appeared to have the upper hand. After Bitcoin reached its previous peak in November 2021, MicroStrategy's strategy of mirroring Bitcoin's performance backfired as the cryptocurrency plummeted in value. The company became one of the worst-performing large-cap stocks of 2022, primarily due to the decline in Bitcoin prices.

一时间，反对者似乎占据了上风。比特币在 2021 年 11 月达到之前的峰值后，随着加密货币价值暴跌，MicroStrategy 模仿比特币表现的策略适得其反。该公司成为 2022 年表现最差的大盘股之一，主要是由于比特币价格下跌。

Nevertheless, Saylor remained steadfast in his conviction. Last month, he confidently asserted to CNBC that Bitcoin would "eat gold," replacing it as the primary store of value.

尽管如此，塞勒仍然坚定自己的信念。上个月，他自信地向 CNBC 宣称，比特币将“吃掉黄金”，取代黄金成为主要的价值储存手段。

The long-term viability of MicroStrategy's strategy to serve as a proxy for Bitcoin remains to be seen, particularly in light of the SEC's approval of several spot Bitcoin ETFs in January.

MicroStrategy 作为比特币替代品的战略的长期可行性仍有待观察，特别是考虑到 SEC 在 1 月份批准了几只现货比特币 ETF。

Undeterred by the potential competition, Saylor, with his newfound wealth, exudes confidence.

塞勒并没有被潜在的竞争吓倒，他凭借新获得的财富，流露出自信。

"Is there any company in the world that you wouldn't like to invest in that could borrow $1 billion at less than 1% interest to invest in your best idea?" he boldly stated to CNBC.

“世界上有哪家公司可以以低于 1% 的利息借到 10 亿美元来投资你最好的创意？”他向 CNBC 大胆表示。
