The post After Michael Saylor, Another Billionaire Hints His Interest in Bitcoin – What’s Happening? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

In a recent development, Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Technologies, whose market capitalization exceeds $100 billion, showed potential interest in Bitcoin (BTC). This interest was hinted at through a series of social media exchanges involving Dell and Bitcoin bull Michael Saylor. The conversation started when Dell posted a cryptic message on its social media account saying “rarity creates value.” This statement led Saylor, MicroStrategy’s executive chairman, to respond: “Bitcoin is a Digital Rarity.” Dell later retweeted Saylor’s BTC-friendly post, hinting at possible interest in BTC. The sharing exchange did not stop there. Dell later shared a digitally altered image of Sesame Street’s Cookie Monster, depicting the character consuming Bitcoin instead of cookies. It appears that the image was modified by Saylor and added a humorous twist to the serious cryptocurrency debate. Saylor, MicroStrategy’s first CEO and now executive chairman, led the company in purchasing 226,331 Bitcoins worth $15 billion over the past four years. The most recent purchase was this week for 11,900 BTC. Saylor has also been a strong advocate for other companies to include Bitcoin on their balance sheets. However, to date, only a handful of companies have adopted Bitcoin as part of their treasury strategies, and none of them have been as successful as the Saylor-led MicroStrategy. Dell had $34.6 billion in current assets on its balance sheet as of May 3, of which $5.8 billion was cash and cash equivalents, according to a recent filing. Bitcoin was not mentioned at all in the application. *This is not investment advice. Follow our Telegram and Twitter account now for exclusive news, analytics and on-chain data!
