Michael Sailor, executive chairman of Strategy, has publicly allowed the sale of Bitcoin for the first time in five years.

In a conversation with investors, he stated that the company might sell part of the coins to pay dividends - not because of financial problems, but to demonstrate business sustainability and save the market from panic. "We will sell some Bitcoin, just to show: the company is fine, Bitcoin is fine, the world hasn’t collapsed," said Sailor.

The announcement came amid a reported net loss of $12.5 billion for the first quarter - largely due to unrealized losses when Bitcoin fell by 23.8%. As early as February, Sailor assured that the company would buy Bitcoin "every quarter indefinitely" and withstand a sell-off of up to $8,000. Strategy’s current portfolio is 818,334 Bitcoin (about $66.7 billion).
