Key Insights

  • MSTR stock price has crashed to the lowest level in years.
  • Bitcoin price has formed several bearish chart patterns, pointing to more downside.
  • There is a risk that the Strategy stock price will continue falling in the near term.

Michael Saylor’s MSTR stock price continued its freefall, reaching its lowest level since September 2024. Strategy has become one of the top laggards on Wall Street as it has crashed by over 75% from its all-time high.

Still, its technicals and fundamentals suggest that the stock has more downside to go in the coming weeks.

MSTR Stock Price Prediction: Technical Analysis Points to a Steep Crash

The weekly chart shows that the MicroStrategy stock price has been in a strong downward trend. Also, it is now trading at its lowest level since 2024.

The Average Directional Index (ADX) has jumped to 33, its highest level since March last year. It’s a sign that the downtrend is gaining momentum.

MSTR stock has remained below the 50-week and 100-week EMAs, which are about to form a bearish crossover pattern. This crossover would be a mini death cross, a highly popular bearish continuation sign.

The stock is now attempting to move below the Strong, Pivot, and Reverse levels of the Murrey Math Lines tool. This would confirm the strong downward trend.

It also remains below the Supertrend and the Ichimoku cloud indicators, a sign that bears are in control. Therefore, the most likely MicroStrategy stock price forecast is bearish, with the next key support level being at $100.

MSTR Stock to Crash as Risks Rise Ahead of Earnings

The next important catalyst for the MSTR stock price will be its corporate earnings. This will come out on Thursday this week. The company posted a big loss in the fourth quarter. Its Bitcoin holdings plunged and dragged down results.

In a recent statement, the company said that it made over $17 billion in losses in the fourth quarter. This loss happened as the Bitcoin price plunged by 25% during the quarter.

The company reported over $5.4 billion in unrealized losses during the year. Therefore, there is a likelihood that its losses will continue in the current quarter if Bitcoin doesn’t bounce back.

Just this week, the company suffered a $900 million unrealized loss as Bitcoin plunged to $74,000. That’s much lower than its average purchase price of $76,000.

The losses will mirror those of Metaplanet, a top Japanese company that has embraced its Bitcoin accumulation strategy. Metaplanet reported a big $680 million loss.

At the same time, the company’s premium has disappeared, with the net asset value (NAV) falling below 1. The NAV multiple’s crash below 1 is a sign that the business model it created is no longer working.

Other Bitcoin treasury companies like Metaplanet and American Bitcoin have seen their premiums tumble.

The company continued to dilute its shareholders by continuing to sell shares to buy Bitcoin. Its outstanding shares have continued rising in the past few months.

It’s a trend that will continue as Michael Saylor has insisted that the company will continue to buy Bitcoin. This dilution explains why the company’s short interest has jumped to over 12%.

Bitcoin Price Technical Analysis Points to More Downside

MicroStrategy stock faces another major risk. Bitcoin has formed bearish chart patterns that signal more downside. It has moved below the 38.2% Fibonacci Retracement level at $84,680. Additionally, the coin has plunged below the Strong, Pivot, and Reverse levels of the Murrey Math Lines tool.

The coin has moved below the 50-week and 100-week Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and the Supertrend indicator.

Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the MACD indicators have continued falling. It’s a sign that the momentum is continuing.

Bitcoin price will likely keep falling. Sellers are targeting the ultimate support level at $50,000. That level sits about 35% below the current price.

Therefore, more downside is a sign that the stock and coins will continue falling in the coming weeks.

Regulatory Clarity Could Drive 40% of Americans to Adopt DeFi Protocols, Survey Shows

Over 40% of Americans express willingness to use decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols once regulatory clarity on crypto privacy emerges, according to a recent survey from crypto advocacy organization the DeFi Education Fund (DEF). The survey, released on September 18, revealed that many Americans feel frustrated with traditional financial institutions and seek greater control over their financial assets and data. Respondents believe DeFi innovations can deliver this change by providing affordability, equity, and consumer protection. The survey was conducted with Ipsos on KnowledgePanel and included supplementary in-depth interviews in the Bronx and Queens between August 18 and 21, polling 1,321 US adults. Survey Results Show Americans Ready to Adopt DeFi Protocols The findings demonstrate that many Americans are curious about DeFi despite its early stage. 42% of Americans indicated they would likely try DeFi if proposed legislation becomes law (9% extremely/very likely and 33% somewhat likely). 84% said they would use it to “make purchases online,” while 78% would use it to “pay bills.” According to the survey, 77% would use DeFi protocols to “save money,” and 12% of Americans are “extremely” and “very” interested in learning about DeFi. Moreover, nearly 4 in 10 Americans believe that DeFi can address high transaction and service fees found in traditional finance (39%). Consistent with other probability-based sample surveys, the Ipsos x DEF research shows that almost 1 in 5 Americans (18%) have owned or used crypto at some point in their lifetime. Nearly a quarter of Americans (22%) said they’re interested in learning more about nontraditional forms of finance, such as blockchain, crypto, or decentralized finance.Source: DEF The research shows that more than half (56%) of Americans want to reclaim control of their finances. Americans are interested in having control over their money at all times, and many seek ways to send or receive money without intermediaries. One Bronx, NY resident shared his experience of needing to transfer money between accounts, but the bank required him to certify the transfer and visit in person because he couldn’t move the amount he needed remotely. He expressed frustration about the situation because “it was my money… I didn’t understand why I was given a hard time.“ More than half of surveyed Americans agree there should be a way to digitally send money to people without third-party involvement, and this number rises notably for foreign-born Americans (66%). The researchers concluded that Americans are interested in DeFi and believe DeFi can reduce friction points in today’s financial system. Regulatory Developments on DeFi Adoption in the U.S Last month, DeFi Education Fund called on the US Senate Banking Committee to rethink how it plans to regulate the decentralized finance industry after reviewing its recently published discussion draft on a key crypto market-structure bill. The response, signed on behalf of DeFi Education Fund (DEF) members including a16z Crypto, Uniswap Labs, and Paradigm, argued the Responsible Financial Innovation Act of 2025 (RFA) bill should be crafted in a more tech-neutral manner. The group also emphasized that crypto developers should be protected from “inappropriate regulation meant for intermediaries,” and that self-custody rights for all Americans are “essential.” The banking committee is now working on the discussion draft to help ensure it builds on the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025. The goal is to promote innovation in the $162 billion DeFi industry without compromising consumer protections or financial stability. On September 5, US Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller said there was “nothing to be afraid of” about crypto payments operating outside the traditional banking system. This statement has raised hopes among many that DeFi would soon become the new financial infrastructure for Americans and the world
