While many investors were worried about MicroStrategy’s (NASDAQ: MSTR) decision to tie itself to Bitcoin (BTC) during the “crypto winter” of 2022, the company has been doing exceptionally well throughout 2023. This trend, which has seen its shares rise by 241.59% on the stock market since January, was largely driven by a broader cryptocurrency resurgence throughout the year.
The fact that Bitcoin more than doubled this year and helped MicroStrategy experience a staggering surge caused many investors to wonder if such strong performance will continue into the new year.
In its quest to find answers, Finbold decided to consult ChatGPT – the poster child of OpenAI’s artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

ChatGPT considers BTC impact on MSTR
Given MicroStrategy’s unique circumstances, ChatGPT first set out to assess Bitcoin’s situation and prospects. Given the common volatility of the crypto market, the AI estimated three wildly different possible scenarios for Bitcoin for the start of 2024.
ChatGPT considers that it is possible that Bitcoin will continue its current trend and stay in the general range between $34,000 and $38,000 until New Year’s Day. The platform also explained that there is a real possibility the world’s foremost cryptocurrency will break out and find itself in the range between $48,600 and $59,800 on January 1.
Finally, ChatGPT warned that despite the current bullish trend, there is always the danger of a calamity that could cause a reversal. Such a reversal could, according to the AI, land BTC somewhere between $18,700 and $26,200.
ChatGPT sets MSTR price range for January 1
Having assessed Bitcoin’s prospects due to MicroStrategy’s close correlation with the cryptocurrency, ChatGPT also offered several linked price ranges for MSTR. According to the AI, Should BTC find itself in the bullish scenario, the shares of Michael Saylor’s company might be somewhere between $694 and $792 – a 40-60% increase compared to the price at the time of writing.
Similarly, ChatGPT foresees that MSTR might rise as high as $594 or $644, even if Bitcoin’s rise up until January is more modest. Finally, since MicroStrategy is closely correlated with BTC, the AI estimates that any calamity for the cryptocurrency leading to it adhering to the bearish scenario could take Michael Saylor’s company down to between $247 and $347 – a drop of up to 50%.
