$BTC is up. $MSTR is up. And so is conviction.


This week marks the third full week of my $50/day MicroStrategy DCA challenge — and the numbers speak for themselves.

Bar chart showing Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) share accumulation from Week 1 to Week 3 of a 20-year $50/day investing challenge on BakoInvest — growing from 0.73 to 2.01 shares by May 9, 2025.
From 0.73 to 2.01 shares in three weeks. This isn’t about price — it’s about building conviction, share by share.

What’s New This Week?

Unlike Week 2 — where prices dipped and tested patience — Week 3 brought a 6.4% surge in Bitcoin and a 7.37% rally in Strategy (MSTR, formerly MicroStrategy). The $400 resistance is gone for now, and the compounding is beginning to show.


But the real win isn’t the +10.88% gain.

The win is showing up 15 days in a row, every market day, no matter what the headlines say.



Why I’m Still Buying


Strategy now holds over a half million bitcoins, and their conviction hasn’t wavered. Neither has mine.


While the world watches memecoins spike and crash, I’m building slow, deep roots — $50 at a time. This isn’t just about catching price moves. It’s about building wealth with unshakable discipline, one weekday at a time.


This isn’t just a crypto play. It’s a conviction investment in a company whose balance sheet mirrors Bitcoin’s trajectory — and whose strategy aligns with my long-term vision.
