Bitcoin (BTC) is in the portfolio of several prominent firms. The Elon Musk-led company Tesla has been smitten by the Bitcoin bug for quite a while now. The king coin is currently trading at $63,711.26, following a slight dip over the past 24 hours.

Tesla’s Bitcoin Investment Journey

Initial Investment and Profit

Tesla’s interest in Bitcoin has fluctuated despite the excitement surrounding its initial investment. By April 2021, Tesla had made a $272 million profit from selling around 10% of its BTC holdings. Musk went on to clarify that this was a test of BTC’s liquidity rather than a major action that would have affected its price.

Market Reactions and Long-Term Goals

The market received conflicting signals from Tesla’s selling of part of its BTC. This further led many to question the firm’s long-term goals in the cryptocurrency arena.

Subsequent Sales and Holdings

Tesla revealed in later financial filings that the company still had a notable holding of Bitcoin. In July 2022, the business said it had raised around $936 million in cash by selling 75% of its remaining BTC.

Combined Holdings with SpaceX

This wasn’t all. It was also revealed that SpaceX owns a notable BTC stash estimated to be worth $560 million. Both firms own a combined 19,788 BTC, which is worth about $1.30 billion.

Musk announced Tesla and SpaceX’s BTC holdings back in 2021. He said:

” I do own Bitcoin, Tesla owns Bitcoin, SpaceX owns Bitcoin.”
