- Bitcoin is down approximately 5% since the last close, weighing on the valuation of the company's core treasury assets.
- Prior concerns regarding a large at-the-market stock offering and a recent Bitcoin sale to fund preferred dividends are resurfacing among investors.
- The decline extends a two-day slide for the stock as sentiment across the broader crypto sector continues to deteriorate.
