2. Analysis: If Bitcoin rises to 0.138 million USD, MicroStrategy's Market Cap will exceed that of Starbucks and Nike.

If Bitcoin rises to 0.138 million USD, MicroStrategy's Market Cap will exceed that of Starbucks and Nike. MicroStrategy holds 439,000 BTC, making it the largest Bitcoin corporate holder, surpassing Marathon Digital's 40,435 BTC holdings by 985%. Analysts state that monitoring the price of BTC can directly predict MSTR's market valuation potential. According to MicroStrategy's Net Asset Value (NAV) worksheet, its fully diluted Market Cap is 114 billion USD, while the derived MSTR NAV is around 40 billion USD. For every 1,000 USD increase in BTC, MSTR's Market Cap increases by about 0.44 billion USD. Therefore, if Bitcoin rises just 11% to 118,810 USD, MicroStrategy's Market Cap will surpass Starbucks' valuation rank. If each BTC rises by 32% to 140,000 USD, MSTR's Market Cap will exceed that of Nike. The condition for exceeding Nike's Market Cap is that MicroStrategy does not increase its current BTC holdings.
