Microstrategy Inc. said it bought more bitcoin between February 15 and April 4 through its subsidiary MacroStrategy LLC.

MicroStrategy provided a portion of its Bitcoin reserves as collateral to secure the loan.
Will this bullish news drive BTC price to $50k this weekend?
Bitcoin price recovered from recent losses and broke above the $46,000 level. The top cryptocurrency even broke the $46,500 resistance zone and is currently trading near $46,700. BTC/USDT is ready to test the next major resistance at the 47,000 level.
If BTC price breaks above the 47,500 level, it can start a bullish rally to $48,800 or even go as high as $49,200 if the bulls remain intact.
On the other hand, Bitcoin could see a further drop below the $46,000 support. In an extended downtrend, the next major support is near $45,500, below which the price could revisit $45,000 support.
