Michael Saylor Launches Innovative BTC Rating System
Bitcoin treasury firm Strategy founder Michael Saylor recently announced on social media platform X that a new metric named 'BTC Rating' has been added to the company's official website. This launch marks a significant step toward enhancing transparency in corporate digital asset holdings.
Understanding the BTC Rating Formula
According to Chaitanya Jain, Strategy's Head of Bitcoin Product Strategy, the BTC Rating formula is: (Bitcoin Reserves - Debt - Preferred Shares + USD Reserves) / Market Cap. This ratio provides a clearer picture of a company's net Bitcoin exposure.
- Bitcoin Reserves: Total BTC holdings
- Debt & Preferred Shares: Fixed liabilities to deduct
- USD Reserves: Available cash reserves
- Market Cap: The company's overall market valuation
Promoting Bitcoin Transparency in Corporate Strategy
With the release of the BTC Rating, Strategy not only highlights its strategic focus on digital assets but also provides a benchmark for other firms to evaluate Bitcoin's role in corporate finance.
