Deep dives
The Vision of a Bitcoin-Focused Financial Services Company
A public company is launching the first Bitcoin financial services firm, emphasizing the importance of Bitcoin as a long-term savings asset. With a treasury of over a thousand Bitcoin, the company plans to aggressively accumulate more, following successful models like MicroStrategy. The goal is to make Bitcoin accessible for everyone, initially through a rewards program that allows consumers to earn Bitcoin as they spend. This approach has reportedly led some customers to earn more Bitcoin rewards than they have in traditional savings accounts.
