In a recent development, a collective legal action has been initiated against Strategy and its key executives, including Michael J. Saylor, Phong Le, and Andrew Kang. This lawsuit, filed in the Eastern District of Virginia federal court on May 16, 2025, alleges serious violations under Section 10(b) and Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. Plaintiffs claim that the defendants engaged in misleading practices surrounding the anticipated returns from their Bitcoin investment strategy.
Additionally, the plaintiffs argue that there was a significant failure to adequately disclose the inherent risks associated with Bitcoin’s volatility, which can lead to substantial investor losses—particularly in light of recent changes to accounting standards, specifically ASU 2023-08. The legal action aims to secure compensation for investors impacted by these alleged misrepresentations and a lack of transparency regarding the risks involved in cryptocurrency investments.
