Macroeconomic Environment

Microsoft shareholders reject Bitcoin investment proposal

At the recent shareholders' meeting, Microsoft's major shareholders voted against a proposal to allocate 1% of the company's total assets for investing in Bitcoin. This proposal was put forward by a research center, aimed at hedging against inflation. Despite a three-minute speech from a well-known figure attempting to persuade shareholders to support the proposal, the shareholders ultimately chose to back the board's position.

The Microsoft board had previously recommended rejecting the proposal, stating that the company prefers to invest in assets with lower volatility. Data shows that Microsoft's largest shareholders are institutional investors, which may be one reason why shareholders are cautious when it comes to cryptocurrency investments.
