Everyone is saying the same thing right now.
But the data tells a very different story.
For the past few months, one narrative keeps spreading every time Bitcoin drops:
Strategy will go bankrupt this cycle.
Some say bankruptcy happens at $50K. Others said $40K. A month ago people were saying it happens below $76K. Bitcoin has already fallen sharply, and none of that happened.
The reality is most people spreading this FUD do not understand how MicroStrategy’s balance sheet is structured.
Let’s break it down for you.
First: Bitcoin vs Debt.
At current levels, MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings are worth roughly $49.4B, while total company debt is about $8.2B.
That means their BTC reserve is almost 6 times larger than their debt.
So even if Bitcoin falls significantly, asset coverage remains very large relative to liabilities.
Second: Dividend obligations.
MicroStrategy pays about $890M per year in dividends. The assumption is they would need to sell Bitcoin to fund this.
But that is not accurate.
The company has built a USD cash reserve of around $2.25B. That alone can cover dividend payments for 2.5 years without selling a single BTC.
So dividend pressure is not a forced selling trigger.
Third: Debt maturity timeline.
Another major misunderstanding is around debt repayment risk. Strategy’s debt is not due immediately.
The earliest maturity comes in September 2028.
After that it'll happen in December 2029, and the last will happen in June 2032.
So there is no major debt maturity pressure for the next 2.5+ years. This is important because Bitcoin has been following the 4-year cycle.
This means by Q3 2028, BTC would likely be trading much higher, possibly near new highs.
So the scenario where BTC stays at $20K-$30K for several years straight is structurally unlikely based on past cycles.
Fourth: Extreme downside contingency.
MicroStrategy itself has said that if Bitcoin stays extremely low for 3-5 years, they may consider selling some BTC.
But that is an extreme contingency scenario, not a base case.
And even for that, they are already building cash buffers to avoid forced selling.
Fifth: Exchange transfer FUD.
There have been viral screenshots claiming MicroStrategy is moving BTC to exchanges. Most of these are either misinterpreted or fake.
There has been no confirmed large-scale liquidation behavior.
Sixth: Historical precedent.
In 2022, MicroStrategy’s average buy price was around $30K. Bitcoin fell almost 50% below that level and stayed there for 16 months.
Even then:
• They did not panic sell
• They did not liquidate holdings
• They held through the drawdown
The only sale was 200 BTC for tax loss harvesting, which was later reaccumulated.
So there is already a real historical stress test, and they held through it.
Final perspective.
Every cycle has a dominant fear narrative. For years it was Tether will collapse. That never played out.
Now the market has shifted that fear toward MicroStrategy.
But when you actually study:
• BTC reserve vs debt
• Cash reserves
• Dividend coverage
• Debt maturity timeline
• Past cycle behavior
There is no immediate bankruptcy risk.
This does not mean the company is risk-free as nothing is risk-free in this world.
But the idea that MicroStrategy collapses simply because $BTC drops in the short term is not supported by balance sheet data.
Most of this narrative is driven more by fear than by financial structure.
