As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in the financial sector, I’ve seen my fair share of market fluctuations and corporate strategies. Tesla’s Bitcoin saga has been a fascinating rollercoaster ride to observe.
As per the latest report by data analysis company Arkham Intelligence, it appears that Tesla is currently holding approximately 776 million US dollars’ worth of Bitcoin.
In early May, Tesla transferred its remaining Bitcoin reserves to unidentified digital wallets, causing a stir in the crypto market.
It’s been disclosed that the transactions in question were just coin switches, with the digital assets continuing to be under the control of the foremost electric vehicle manufacturer.
In early 2021, Tesla enthusiastically entered the world of Bitcoin by purchasing an impressive $1.5 billion in BTC and providing customers with the option to pay using this popular digital currency. Yet, within a short period, Tesla developed reservations towards cryptocurrency. Subsequently, they ceased accepting Bitcoin payments soon after introducing them, mainly due to environmental worries. Additionally, Tesla sold off a substantial amount of its holdings.
Although there have been discussions that Tesla might be considering selling its last Bitcoin, it’s important to note that they still rank as the fourth largest company in terms of Bitcoin ownership among all corporations.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has not mentioned Bitcoin on his X profile since 2022.
Recently this month, the billionaire expressed his views on cryptocurrency, labeling it as intriguing, while acknowledging its unique characteristics of being decentralized.
Yet, it remains unclear what Musk’s current stance is when it comes to Bitcoin.
In my previous analysis, I mentioned that I believe Tesla might start accepting Bitcoin again for their products, provided there’s a significant shift towards renewable energy in the mining process.
