Bitcoin surged past $107,000 on Monday, hitting a new all-time high, as MicroStrategy continued its aggressive buying spree of the cryptocurrency.

The business intelligence firm announced earlier in the day that it had purchased an additional $1.5 billion worth of bitcoin through a stock sale, marking its sixth consecutive week of buying. MicroStrategy now holds approximately $45 billion worth of Bitcoin. 

With the company accelerating its bitcoin purchases, its stock price has surged more than 500% this year. On Friday, MicroStrategy announced it will be added to the Nasdaq 100 index on Dec. 23.

The inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 index is a significant milestone for MicroStrategy, as it signals increased institutional interest in the company and its bitcoin strategy. The move is also likely to attract more investors to the cryptocurrency market.
