Moreover, 70% stated that they are carefully watching what everyone else is doing with the cryptocurrency before deciding on whether or not to move forward in investing their companies cash reserves in it. The survey, conducted by Gartner, comes following news that Tesla recently invested 8% (USD 1.5 billion) of its cash reserve into bitcoin. MicroStrategy Inc. has also already invested large sums into bitcoin and has announced a USD 600 million convertible bond offering to acquire additional bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth noting that increased corporate investment in bitcoin would lead to the cryptocurrency\u2019s value increasing. For example, should corporate investments rise to 10% of cash reserves, it is estimated that the price of a bitcoin would increase by USD 400,000.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rpbt_shortcode\">\n\n<div id='rpbt-related-gallery-1' class='gallery related-gallery related-galleryid-15859 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='More Than Half the World\u2019s Population to Use Mobile Wallets by 2025'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/more-than-half-the-world-s-population-to-use-mobile-wallets-by-2025\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/6ff77193-90c5-3828-2324-dbc5824937172-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-16169\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-16169'>\n\t\t\t\tMore Than Half the World\u2019s Population to Use Mobile Wallets by 2025\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='Deloitte report highlights digital efforts of financial institutions this year'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/deloitte-report-highlights-digital-efforts-of-financial-institutions-this-year\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/c725a6ea-7d07-4ded-a2e1-ead299d7a9ed1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-15545\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-15545'>\n\t\t\t\tDeloitte report highlights digital efforts of financial institutions this year\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='BFC FinTech Monitor  27th February &#8211; 5th March'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/bfc-fintech-monitor-27th-february-5th-march\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/finteh-daydzhest-27-fevralya-5-fevralya-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-14598\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-14598'>\n\t\t\t\tBFC FinTech Monitor  27th February &#8211; 5th March\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A small-scale study of financial executives has found that 5% of companies intend to invest in bitcoin (BTC) as a corporate asset this year, with a further 11% stating they could do so by 2024.
