This shift is similar to the approach taken by Strategy, led by Bitcoin advocate Michael Saylor. Speculation about GameStop’s crypto plans began in February when CEO Ryan Cohen posted a photo with Saylor, fueling rumors of a Bitcoin purchase.
GameStop’s new policy now confirms its belief in Bitcoin as a long-term investment, following in the footsteps of Strategy, which recently increased its Bitcoin holdings to over 506,000 BTC.
