From Wall Street to Tokyo, listed companies are triggering a "Bitcoin hoarding craze"—they are not trading cryptocurrencies but treating BTC as "digital gold" to stock up on their balance sheets, even resorting to using cash reserves to aggressively increase their holdings!

MicroStrategy (MSTR) has become a "Bitcoin whale," holding 580,000 BTC (worth over $60 billion), and recently purchased another 705 coins at a cost of only $70,000—now that the price has risen, the unrealized gains are astounding!

Japanese Metaplanet made a high-profile imitation, suddenly increasing its holdings by 1,088 BTC, almost converting all its cash into Bitcoin, causing its stock price to soar!

Tesla (TSLA) still holds 11,000 coins, but compared to its cash reserves (only $1.6 billion), Bitcoin now occupies a significant proportion.

Small companies are also going crazy: the American semiconductor firm Semler Scientific (SMLR) has cash reserves of $9.74 million but spent 91% of it to buy 4,264 BTC!

Why is capital rushing in?

1. Against inflation: With the devaluation of the dollar, Bitcoin has become an "anti-decline asset."

2. Marketing tool: Companies that announce they hold BTC often see their stock prices soar (like Metaplanet's one-day increase of over 20%).

3. Long-term bet: Institutions believe Bitcoin may replace some gold reserves in the future.
