MicroStrategy
Redirects Hope.com to Bitcoin-Focused Page
MicroStrategy, the
billion-dollar business intelligence firm that invested $425 million into
bitcoin this year, has redirected the premium hope.com domain to a page
focused on offering user educational resources on bitcoin.
The resources largely comprise
press material explaining MicroStrategy’s $425 million bet on bitcoin. In a
tweet explaining the redirection of Hope.com, MicroStrategy’s CEO, Michael
Saylor, said bitcoin “represents hope to billions of people in need of an
instrument of economic empowerment.”
MicroStrategy was notably the
firm that sold Voice.com for $21 million to Block.one, the firm behind the
EOSIO blockchain protocol, for it to launch a cryptocurrency-powered social
media platform on the domain.
MicroStrategy also owns Wisdom.com,
Strategy.com, Courage.com Glory.com, and other premium domain names.
