Business intelligence firm MicroStrategy has announced its biggest Bitcoin purchase to date.

The Virginia-based company added 55,500 BTC, shelling out $97,862 per coin.

Following the recent gargantuan purchase, MicroStrategy holds a total of 386,700 BTC.

The company now needs the Bitcoin price to be above $56,761 for its Bitcoin holdings to remain profitable.

The price of Bitcoin dipped to $97,362 following the Monday announcement, which was more or less expected by the market.

The MicroStrategy stock is also unfazed by the recent announcement. It is currently up by roughly 3%.

The company's stock is up a staggering 515% over the past year. However, there are mounting concerns about the viability of its audacious debt-for-Bitcoin strategy.
