Great news: big corporations aren't ready for BTC yet

[Marykeller]

• Does the rejection by tech giants make you less confident in BTC's potential?
• If you were the owner of Meta or Amazon, would you easily agree to accumulate more BTC?
• When do you think these tech giants will start accumulating BTC?

1. Not at all. Bitcoin potential is not dependent on them for its success in the market. Bitcoin will excel without them

2. Yeah, I will because the future of Bitcoin is still bright. Missing it out, it is like missing a huge opportunity. That's what I will let the shareholders know.

3. We can't state the exact time. It's up to them to decide, to accept Bitcoin now or keep prolonging i

[Z-tight]

I can't tell you when anyone will start accumulating BTC, it is up to them to decide when is the right time for them, just like retail investors too, we all decided that we needed to have a BTC portfolio and we went for it, nobody pushed us into it.

Even before institutional investors started getting interested, BTC was doing great, so what is there to be disappointed that a couple of them said no to BTC now, take note that a lot of countries and institutions have said no to BTC in the past, but they changed their minds later on, and that could still happen here.

If you were the owner of Meta or Amazon, would you easily agree to accumulate more BTC?

The people who run these companies have their reasons for saying no to BTC, many retail investors may disagree, but maybe if we ran such a company, we'd understand their reasons.

1. The refusal of large tech companies to create their own Bitcoin reserves does not make me doubt the potential of the first cryptocurrency (In my opinion, in the future Bitcoin will become an integral part of the gold and foreign exchange reserves of Central Banks. This will be necessary to maintain the value of national fiat currencies. That is, it is Central Banks, and not large tech companies, who will actively buy Bitcoin in the future).

2. If I were the head / owner of Meta, Microsoft or Amazon, I would not accumulate Bitcoin on the balance sheets of these companies. (I would buy Bitcoin as an individual, using dividends, wages, bonuses and incentives received from these companies. Large tech companies should make profit from their core business, and not from the growth in the value of assets on the balance sheet and not from exchange rate differences.)

3. I think that these companies will never decide to accumulate Bitcoin (From an economic point of view, this is a meaningless decision. It is easier to create a new legal entity that will mine Bitcoin and store it).

[EluguHcman]

However, most of the companies currently accumulating BTC aren't the absolute giants in the market.

We do not need them but they will later find it hard not to buy bitcoin. There are many institutions that will still come. It is good to also know that just 4% of the people in the world have bitcoin. This number in percentage will still later increase.

OPs analytical opinion sounds lost because it is like the Bitcoin market is not getting attentions of more Investors attention specifically the whalers whose value of purchases is being driving force of the market which liquidity has been revolved breaking the ATHs.

Hence there had been the public companies like the Microstrategy, Tesla and the Assets Managers Funds like Black rock including the Bank and Financial Institutions like JP Morgan and the rest of the instituional investors including us the retailers all around Bitcoin holding sustainable values, there is every tendencies that more investors will admire and embrace.

The people running large corporations are often not the brightest and they have many mental issues, otherwise no such corporation would ever make large blunders or almost go near extinct. You are assuming that someone is smart because of their authority, don't. That is a very mistaken view and is a thinking fallacy.

Bitcoin wins either way, it's only the companies that miss the potential that it provides as time goes on

This is the right answer that I was looking for.

[Davidvictorson]

Companies seek profit only.
It's their goal and that's what they desire most, through tech or not.

They seek profit only and they are buying Bitcoin for this sole purpose. Their backup plan will be that once and if Bitcoin doesn't continue to meet their expectations which is continuous price increase, they will sell them all off. It becomes a liability and not an asset. They want something that appreciate in value consistently.

[AmoreJaz]

Big companies are investing in bitcoin in a clear way and they have a good long term plan. Regardless of the amount collected but remember bitcoin has never made any company lose if invested in the long term. So I don't need to explain the benefits.
Now if there are some rejections made by tech giants against Bitcoin that makes us less convinced? That's bullshit! No matter how they reject it because we have seen this throughout the adoption of bitcoin. Their rejection in the past has led to a stream of companies regretting it. Accepting or not a tech giant company does not make bitcoin weak.

I believe a lot of these tech companies are somehow already investing in crypto but in discreet way. Most won't disclose to the public that they are already into the market. Though some are open that they are into btc, however, I think most are still doing their business in closed doors. Besides, we can't get the real stats over the net. As companies already have seen the crypto market and its performance throughout the years, I would say, a lot of them are silently investing in this market.

[peter0425]

1. No.
2. Probably not, because I have methods that are tested with time already.
3. When the pros will outweigh the cons in their eyes (which would take a lot of time).

If what they are seeing right now still has not been able to outweigh the cons in their eyes then I do not know what will. Do they want to wait until all is too late? If they want to maximize the benefits of bitcoin, they’d buy and use it now and not wait until everyone has already bought bitcoin.

• When do you think these tech giants will start accumulating BTC?

1. No, it makes me more confident on bitcoin. Even though they rejected it there are still other companies that are getting their hands on bitcoin.
BlackRock is not small company and when such a big company has started accumulating bitcoin then other big companies will follow the lead too.

2. Obviously, even if I would not put a substantial amount into bitcoin I would still hold at least some of it if I were in their shoes.

3. Soon. The time will come soon.

I doubt these companies even look out for sell button, they don't even think about selling their accumulated Bitcoin any time soon, in as much as their productions of their products is going on, they having their regular sales daily then the possibility of buying Bitcoin consecutively is assured no matter how much it takes them.

Maybe they consider selling some portion of Bitcoin when a heavy production equipment is destroyed as for process industrial company, so they can rebuild it or something.

That will depend on how they view bitcoin. If they treat investing in bitcoin the same way they hold gold, government bonds...then they will never sell it if their business is not difficult because they use it as a reserve asset. But if they just consider Bitcoin as a speculation and don't have a long-term vision, they can sell it at any time and reinvest it at another time. Just like Tesla did, they sold their bitcoins after holding them for a while.

So far, companies that have invested in bitcoin such as MicroStrategy, Genius Group...have all stated that they use bitcoin as a reserve asset and have a long-term holding strategy instead of speculating, however this statement is not guaranteed.

1) I don’t really care what the tech giants are doing ^{as I have my own perspective when it comes to BTC development.}

2) In this case I would accept BTC as a form of payment.

3) Big corporations are usually laggards when it comes to adopting Bitcoin. Thus they will start do it after small and middle size business lead the way.

Blackrock isn’t a treasury company. They also sell Bitcoin sometimes, and you could argue they were the reason why the price was stagnant for a while. The companies that are doing a treasury strategy are typically companies that aren’t profitable and are looking for a way to pump their stock price. For companies like Amazon and Microsoft that are already worth trillions, they would have to buy most of the circulating supply available on exchanges for it to really affect their stock price. This would cause Bitcoin to become illiquid and susceptible to extreme volatility.

- I don't really care whether BTC gets adopted or rejected by the giant tech because i already adopted it even before those giants tech looked at Bitcoin. If they're not adopting BTC, who cares!
- If the purpose for diversifying the portfolios, i'd say yes to accumulate Bitcoin.
- Maybe next months, next years or even next decades.

    3. When do you think these tech giants will start accumulating BTC?

1. NO
2. Accumulate by buying crypto - hell no, accepting crypto for payments - yes
3. Never
Unless it is a financial services company, most companies do NOT and should not invest is stocks/bonds or other financial schemes. All that does is tie up capital that can be better used to grow their core business and it would just be a distraction from it.

I'd like to get your opinion on this:

Does the rejection by tech giants make you less confident in BTC's potential?

No I'm here even if they are not supporting it since we already know the potential of Bitcoin and would just ignore their skepticism.

If you were the owner of Meta or Amazon, would you easily agree to accumulate more BTC?

Nope, I don't want to get a problem with my investors and other top officials who work to make Meta or Amazon succeed. Will continue to listen the sentiments of majority since its important to hear everyone's opinion whether they like to invest on Bitcoin or not.

When do you think these tech giants will start accumulating BTC?

We don't have any idea on when, but lets look forward to see Bitcoin succeed more since maybe in that situation they start to think about investing or accumulating Bitcoin at that point.

[Synchronice]

It's clear we're seeing some serious corporate action when it comes to accumulating BTC for businesses. Honestly, the list of big companies holding BTC just keeps getting longer, and the crypto community isn't buzzing as much over news updates like "this company bought a few hundred BTC" or "that company snagged a few thousand BTC". Even I'm not overly impressed with the amount of BTC Strategy is accumulating anymore – maybe we just got used to this pretty fast!

However, most of the companies currently accumulating BTC aren't the absolute giants in the market. Back in late 2024, shareholders at Microsoft and Amazon passed on accumulating BTC, and we recently heard that Meta made a similar decision. This is interesting, especially since Meta wants to roll out a stablecoin to really dive deeper into the crypto market. This news might have been a bit of a letdown for some crypto investors hoping to see the whole world jump on the BTC bandwagon and push prices up fast.

Personally, I think this is totally normal. Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta are all massive companies. Every single decision they make is crucial and can really impact the direction of an entire empire. They simply have too much to protect, and they're willing to wait to make sure their future decisions are super safe.

Looking at this from a positive angle, crypto investors should actually be happy that these huge corporations are still holding off on BTC. This means we're truly still early investors, and the opportunity for us in this market is just massive. I'd be more concerned if a ton of big companies suddenly piled into BTC, that could trigger an unsustainable bubble that might pop at any time.

I completely agree with you, the fact that these companies hesitate to adopt Bitcoin is very good because this year we had enough catalysts to increase Bitcoin's price. We need such a great news once every 3-4 years because after bull market, there is a bear market and such a catalyst can give us very good profits when we buy during bear market.

Rejection by tech giants doesn't make me less confident in Bitcoin, it's actually good because I'm here to profit long-term, I want to see more than modest bull runs every 4 year, I don't want to see just single time process, I want to see multiple good events for Bitcoin.
If I were the owner of Amazon, I'd definitely include Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency payment options to have an edge over eBay that doesn't adopt cryptocurrencies.

I think that these tech giants will start accumulating Bitcoin before the end of 2030.

[Solosanz]

Yeah that's the good side, you can call it early adopter even though Bitcoin is already very expensive compared to a decade ago.

Businesses are likely to make money from their own service or product instead of invest in asset and wait for 4 years, the technology is keep changing, so I think it's not about them not ready for Bitcoin, but they know they're more profitable than holding Bitcoin.

I more convinced they will add Bitcoin as payment alternative rather than accumulating Bitcoin.

Large companies give the highest priority to their recent profits and losses. It cannot be said that all companies will have a long-term plan to hold Bitcoin, but they usually do not want to miss the opportunity where there is a big earning opportunity. Not only ordinary investors but also institutional investors are now showing their interest in Bitcoin. That is why the price of Bitcoin is continuously increasing. This growth rate will continue to increase in the future. Because most of the big companies have not started investing in Bitcoin yet. If they try to invest together, the price of Bitcoin will definitely increase a lot. Those who are still investing in Bitcoin are definitely the primary investors.

Today or tomorrow, every big company will definitely try to increase their investment in Bitcoin. And when that time comes, it will be more difficult for the ordinary people to buy Bitcoin. The demand for Bitcoin worldwide is increasing gradually. So those who already increase their investment in Bitcoin will definitely be much more profitable than others in the future.

[X-ray]

I guess that's the disadvantage of being a tech giant, they can't do drastic action like accumulating BTC without the investor frowning.

As a result, the company hardly innovate and late to the game, they always stick to the old ways of generating revenue while the smaller companies are trying something with the crypto technology.

Personally, I don't really worry too much about them not accumulating BTC, if they aren't accumulating now they will accumulate in the future, it's possible that they become the fuel for the next cycle.

As of now, even the likes of MSTR already putting billions of money in the market and that's good enough.
