Why are large public companies buying Bitcoin?

[_BlackStar]

Over time - there will be a wave of large corporations buying bitcoin as a reserve asset or store of value. Inflation and all the bad things happening around the world have made fiat lose its value - so they will obviously look for a safe haven asset to help stabilize their finances. So far the investment from large companies has convinced many smaller companies to do the same - but I don't think they need to jump on the bandwagon without a plan.

MicroStrategy won't stop buying and accumulating bitcoin - they seem to be so convinced that the future of bitcoin is going to be much better and give them protection. Billions of dollars of big companies investments are already in bitcoin - Bitcoin is the future asset with the greatest potential to provide worth it returns - so there is no hesitation in buying and accumulating.

Large companies that buy bitcoin are not only done by public companies. But there are also many private companies that are buying bitcoin quite massively at the moment. All this indicates high confidence in bitcoin in the future. And with all the conflicts currently occurring on earth, the safest and easiest asset to move anywhere is Bitcoin. Meanwhile, other assets require special space. And big companies see that the wave of bitcoin hype will not stop and will continue to increase as time goes by. It doesn't matter whether big companies come in or not. So these big companies just don't want to be left behind in owning assets that they also judge will be very valuable in the future. And we know they move with full research and careful planning. So now people who initially didn't believe in Bitcoin are now starting to believe in it. I mean old investors who initially only believed in stocks are now slowly starting to invest in bitcoin.

Global economic instability, inflation, dollar depreciation and uncertainty have forced companies to look for alternative assets like Bitcoin as a future financial asset. In this context, Bitcoin has been considered an emerging asset or digital gold. Just as gold was seen as a safe haven during economic crises; currently, large companies are considering Bitcoin as a safe haven. Various public companies are storing Bitcoin on their balance sheets so that they can strengthen their future financial position. When the price of Bitcoin increases, the value of the companies increases. On the other hand, when costs increase, the price falls. Then it becomes very risky. Through Bitcoin, the company is said to be more future-focused. Because by investing in Bitcoin, the company believes in modern future technology or has innovative power. When Tesla bought Bitcoin, their social media coverage and band value increased many times. Bitcoin is no longer just a digital coin; it is considered by people as a sure-fire way to secure the future. Companies that are currently buying BTC -
1.MicroStrategy,
2.Tesla,
3.Block Inc. (formerly Square)
4.Coinbase,
5.Marathon Digital Holdings
6.Hut 8 Mining

Big companies are constantly doing various researches all over the world to stay ahead of the competition and to maintain their value and they know very well how important and profitable Bitcoin is for the future. That is why big companies are slowly moving towards Bitcoin and Google has decided to provide Bitcoin wallet for their Gmail users where each Gmail will have a Bitcoin wallet. Bitcoin has reached a point where if someone denies Bitcoin and refrains from using Bitcoin then they will face many challenging moments in the future and will fall behind their competitors. And that is why big companies are slowly starting to accept Bitcoin and thinking about new things about Bitcoin

Large publicly traded players are betting big on Bitcoin as their next safe haven. Take MicroStrategy (wow Strategy), it has become the largest publicly Bitcoin whale till now, hodling around 582,000BTC after doubling by selling preferred shares. they could see bitcoin ruling future world so rolled the dice in hopes of a huge payout.

Tesla, Block, Marathon, Hut8, and Coinbase have also locked karma in BTC, occupied together more than 3.3% of all Bitcoin mined. They are hedging & protecting their cash reserves from inflation & dollar weakness, while simultaneously hoping Bitcoin will climb higher. So only volatility is the high stake draw here, i suspect a drop below 90K could hit little hard, forcing some weak hearted people to cash out early and another group will buy, that is the real gamble, if you know.

So who will move next? Watch for giants with deep pocket also you need a tech forward outlook, perhaps like BlackRock getting into the Bitcoin ETF game, or more legacy company looking to demonstrate modern strength by migrating to digital treasuries.

I believe we are all getting updated about the ongoing war in the Middle East and also how it is affecting the economy due to geopolitical sentiments? Yeah, this outcomes to devaluation of the traditional currencies while the stocks values are also setback accelerates inflation.

There it becomes an economic crisis which affects investors including the large companies from reaching their investment goals.
These critical challenges could go worse in the future disastrously. And while their assets are not appreciating neither secured, then the aspiration of diversifying some percentage of their revenues to Bitcoin as a digital currency becomes an option.

So Bitcoin became Investors interests as safe haven due to it regulatory resistance and volatility that outcomes profitable returns.
However, the most important is that even while economic influence may significantly affect the price of Bitcoin, investors remains confident that their assets is safe in the Blockchain while liquidation of more buyers holds it future prospects.
This qualifed Bitcoin to be digital gold.

- Which companies do you think will buy the token in the future?

bitcoin is not a token and who knows? everyone’s buying bitcoin now i think you even have other companies not mentioned from your list maybe it’ll be easier to look at those who haven’t bought bitcoin yet because soon they will be the only ones left

[mirakal]

After all, the interest of these big companies in buying bitcoin is to make their company grow. It is part of the business plan because they believe that Bitcoin gives them a better earning opportunity. Their participation has a huge impact on the growth of cryptocurrency in general, not just bitcoin. The more we see big and well-known companies, the more it motivates and encourages small companies as well. Although this won't have an instant impact on the price and adoption. However, this will be seen in the future, which is what we want (changes).

[DanWalker]

OP, the public companies you are referring to or other companies are investing in bitcoin. In addition to their core business, they also invest in various asset classes with the aim of diversification to reduce risk and seek to increase returns.

MicroStrategy, Tesla, Block...all are investing in stocks, bonds, real estate or other fintech investments. And bitcoin is just like other assets, it has the potential for even higher returns, so we don't need to be surprised or wonder when they invest in bitcoin.

Except for crypto companies and Strategy invest the majority in bitcoin, the rest of the companies invest only a small portion in bitcoin.

Not tokens, but Bitcoin.

We just don't know for sure which companies will buy Bitcoin in the future, because the decision of a company to buy Bitcoin usually depends on their internal. But it is certain that there will be more companies that will invest in Bitcoin, either because they see that it is a potential asset, can increase their brand value, and other reasons. But Bitcoin is so popular right now, and its adoption is increasing, so it is not surprising that it attracts the interest of companies globally to invest their money in it. By looking at its history, its potential, and with various considerations, these companies invest their money to be able to get capital gains from Bitcoin.

No one should be surprised anymore about microstrategy or tesla investing in bitcoin since Michael Saylor and Elon Musk both have openly talked about supporting bitcoin. Other companies may not be as open to investing in bitcoin due to still being scared of the risks bitcoin brings. While most decide that the risks are outweighed by its benefits.

Except for crypto companies and Strategy invest the majority in bitcoin, the rest of the companies invest only a small portion in bitcoin.

Probably still trying to manage the risks but also wanting to get in on the very profitable investment that is bitcoin.

- Which companies do you think will buy the token in the future?

First, Bitcoin isn't a token. But most of those companies that you've listed, they're going to buy and will continue to buy.

Don't put all eggs in one basket.
The way it is.

On their case, that's what they're doing. And aside from the finance industry, lending and asset acquisition, having Bitcoin is one of their diversification technique. They have recognized that getting early in the game is still on it. The market is still young and they are considerably still early on it and so they are interested.

1.Microstrategy and Coinbase are Bitcoin/crypto related companies. Do you expect crypto companies NOT to buy Bitcoin?
2.I haven't heard anything about Tesla buying BTC recently. I wouldn't bet money on Tesla becoming successful anytime soon, if Trump shuts down their carbon credit subsidies and government contracts, Tesla is going down. Musk didn't keep his promise about Tesla accepting BTC payments.
3.Square is pro-Bitcoin because Jack Dorsey is pro-Bitcoin.
4.I haven't heard anything about the last two companies in your list. Hut 8 Mining has "mining" in the name, which means that they are also related to crypto(I guess).
Large companies are buying BTC because they want to make money. There's no other reason.

and yet you have to consider the basket you are hoping to keep your eggs in or else you end up wasting all your effort. bitcoin is not jus one of the option you consider when you are looking at an asset to diversify into. it is the big deal that the big players are hoping to get really delved into. look at hat Donald trump said when he was talking about bitcoin, his opinion has always been that since bitcoin is the big deal, it is only best to get right into it and do it really big. it is the same thing that most big companies have also seen that have made them get all soaked into investing in bitcoin even in the midst of the uncertainty  and the global unrest that is happening.

big companies are always at a log ahead with themselves, they always want to be at the Centre of every trending thin that is happening and getting involved in bitcoin is an option that is worth every bit of effort.

- Which companies do you think will buy the token in the future?

I didn't see Microsoft or companies own by Warren Buffet like Berkshire Hathaway.

Anyways, most of the companies you mentioned are crypto related. If Elon musk is buying bitcoin through Tesla then I shouldn't be surprised.

And, let me say they are in for the business and not for love of bitcoin just like government doesn't like the decentralised financial system of bitcoin but non of them have choice (both the companies and government). More like if you can't beat them, you join them.

It is for competition, the market world is competitive and business conglomerates have to go with market dynamics and follow customers demands.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Why are this companies buying Bitcoin, it's to secure profit, since they sometimes make public announcement of how many Bitcoin they bought or the volume they are holding, you can imagine what their profit margin would be during price spike, that's why some other companies have taken the motivation to start investing in Bitcoin too. In the future, there are many other company that will definitely invest into Bitcoin too because they are already considering how much profit other companies have achieved through Bitcoin, example is micro strategy who has been buying Bitcoin since Bitcoin was $20k up till now they still buy more.

[Bitcoin.com97]

Bitcoin being a digital gold ,  most companies believe in the long term value,buying Bitcoin and accumulating it is also a big investment strategy for them , it’s also a way of diversing asset and getting a potential returns, most of this companies have confidence in long term investment on Bitcoin because the value increase overly ,so that is the reason why most big companies are buying and investing hugely on it .

You are right, MicroStrategy and Coinbase are native in the form of blockchain world. And there is no doubt they would stake Bitcoin.
I just wonder how anyone could be disverifying mining giants MARA and Hut 8. Mempool.space indicating Marathon Digital as the top 6 mining pool. Whatever, afaik MARA pool and Hut 8 both are treating bitcoin as their operational tool and treasury asset.

Last I've seen MARA is holding over 49500 BTC and continuously growing their hodling via debt raises and mining output.
Meanwhile, in USA Trump Brothers and Hut 8 team have come up strongly this year by growing a 1 billion BTC reserve.

American Bitcoin, alongside Eric Trump's group, such moves proved they are not just gambling on bitcoin, if you know its a real treasury play. To hedge against inflation, such big hands are moving to Bitcoin, not only gold.

1.Microstrategy and Coinbase are Bitcoin/crypto related companies. Do you expect crypto companies NOT to buy Bitcoin?

Coinbase is a long-standing exchange in the market, they are not just a related company but also a part of the industry and have contributed a lot to the crypto industry. But I don't think Microstrategy is a crypto related company, they are just a software company and only started investing in bitcoin since 2020.

2.I haven't heard anything about Tesla buying BTC recently.

Tesla has barely bought any bitcoin in recent years, but according to Arkham, the company still holds around 11,509 BTC purchased since 2021.

4.I haven't heard anything about the last two companies in your list. Hut 8 Mining has "mining" in the name, which means that they are also related to crypto(I guess).

Marathon Digital Holdings and Hut 8 Mining are two major companies in the Bitcoin mining industry operating in the North American market.
And you are right, no matter who they are, they all have the same goal when investing in bitcoin, which is to make money, nothing more.

[justinlamode]

The right question should have been why are most big companies not buying Bitcoin yet because we already know why those of them buying are doing so. Bitcoin have maintained the record of being one of the easiest ways of realizing big profits at minimal effort. Big companies can easily flip their capital over a period of few years through Bitcoin, an opportunity they can rarely seeing in other businesses. That is why it is a good investment decision for big companies to consider Bitcoin.

That's right and even if a token might sometimes have a big value doesn't mean is the same thing as Bitcoin because we are looking at two things here which one is dependent and the second independent and the only independent one here is Bitcoin, so actually I think Op understand and categories it based on value. However there is no much big deal when companies buys Bitcoin aside from the positive significant it will make on the price because what they are doing is to send some of there assets to were it will grow multiple overtime, although some of them might be buying Bitcoin to use it as a means of payment on there companies.
