Michael Saylor, the Chairman of MicroStrategy, has been given the go-ahead to make a three-minute presentation to Microsoft's board regarding Bitcoin investment.

Background and Saylor's Initiative

Michael Saylor was contacted by activists to present his idea of investing in Bitcoin to Microsoft's board. He believes this should be considered by other major companies with large cash reserves.

I think it’s not a bad idea to put it on the agenda of every company. It ought to be put on the agenda of Berkshire Hathaway and Apple and Google and Meta because they all have huge hordes of cash, and they’re all burning shareholder value.

Microsoft's Response to the Proposal

In October, Microsoft disclosed that voting in December would include a proposal about Bitcoin investment, initiated by the National Center for Public Policy Research. However, Microsoft's board recommended voting against it, as they already evaluate a wide range of investable assets including Bitcoin.

Prospects and Possible Implications

According to the deputy director of the NCPPR’s Free Enterprise Project, if Microsoft conducts the assessment and decides not to invest in Bitcoin, it could lead to tension within the company. This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.

Michael Saylor's proposal may become an important step in Microsoft's decision-making on future investments, considering current cryptocurrency market trends.
