Adam Cochran discussed MicroStrategy's financial quandary due to its 2025 and 2028 convertible notes amidst its extensive Bitcoin holdings. Failure to address the 2025 note could lead to a 15% equity dilution, while refinancing could spike yield rates.

Cochran hinted that the year-end decisions could significantly impact how MicroStrategy navigates its debt come 2024.
