Elon Musk Curious If Converting Tesla

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) CEO Elon Musk could do his shareholders a $100 billion favor by converting the automaker’s balance sheet to Bitcoin, his MicroStrategy Inc (NASDAQ: MSTR) counterpart Michael Saylor suggested.

What Happened: Saylor made his comments in response to Musk poking fun at the apex cryptocurrency on Sunday.

“Are such large transactions even possible?” Musk probed.

In response, Saylor offered to share his “playbook” with the Tesla CEO, saying, he had purchased over $1.3 billion in Bitcoin over the past few months. The only caveat? Saylor would only share such secrets offline.

Why It Matters: Coinbase, which filed for an IPO this month, facilitated a $425 billion purchase of Bitcoin for Microstrategy earlier in the year.

Virginia-based MicroStrategy raised $550 million in debt to fund the purchases in December. A Citi analyst downgraded the firm thereafter, calling Saylor’s focus on Bitcoin “disproportionate.”

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said on Twitter late Sunday, if any company wanted to hold cryptocurrency on its balance sheet, Coinbase could help.

Seems like more and more companies are starting to hold crypto on balance sheet, as a hedge against inflation. We can help https://t.co/KWYOemrDMO

Others that have jumped on the Bitcoin bandwagon include PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: PYPL) and Jack Dorsey-led Square Inc (NYSE: SQ).
