In a controversial move, Trump Media & Technology Group has just announced an investment of $2.5 billion in Bitcoin. However, instead of creating a positive wave, the company's stock dropped 10%, indicating investor concerns about legal risks and volatility from the crypto market.
Experts suggest that this is a bold move, reflecting the ambition to reshape corporate treasury strategies with digital assets. However, it also opens up the risk of future legal scrutiny, especially as it coincides with political tensions and shocking statements from Donald Trump.
The incident recalls the time in 2021 when Elon Musk caused Bitcoin prices to fluctuate wildly with just a few tweets. Once again, the market has become a 'hostage' to influential figures.
Analysts from Kanalcoin believe that the trend of companies incorporating Bitcoin into their balance sheets will continue, but they also warn of a potential 'legal storm' that could strike at any moment.
Is this the first step in a 'Bitcoin diplomacy' among major corporations, or just a symbolic gamble from Trump Media?
