  • SpaceX records a $373 million write-down on Bitcoin holdings, signaling potential divestment from cryptocurrency.
  • Bitcoin’s value plunges 7.0% in 24 hours and 9.6% over the week, while a crypto analyst predicts potential bottom and long-term bullish trend.
  • Confusion arises over whether SpaceX sold $373 million in Bitcoin or reduced its activity, as social media reports provide conflicting information.

The write-down, a reflection of the decrease in the recorded value of Bitcoin on SpaceX’s balance sheet, comes as a surprise given the company’s earlier foray into the world of digital currencies. 

In 2021, SpaceX revealed its entry into the crypto realm, acquiring an undisclosed amount of Bitcoin. However, the recent action indicates a possible shift in strategy as the aerospace giant grapples with an evolving financial landscape.

Simultaneously, Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency market’s frontrunner, has been experiencing a rollercoaster ride in value. Over the last 24 hours, its price has plummeted 7.0%, contributing to a substantial 9.6% decline throughout the week. Despite this tumultuous market performance, influential crypto analyst “Credible Crypto” predicts that this downturn might mark a potential bottom for Bitcoin’s price. He remains resolute in his belief in a robust long-term bullish trend.

Amidst these developments, confusion has arisen regarding the nature of SpaceX’s actions. Social media platforms are buzzing with conflicting reports about whether SpaceX sold a substantial chunk of its Bitcoin holdings or merely scaled back its activity in the cryptocurrency realm by $373 million. The company’s lack of clear communication has led to speculation and uncertainty among cryptocurrency enthusiasts.
