Data: American companies expect to purchase over $10 billion in Bitcoin within the next 18 months

According to ChainCatcher news, a recent report from Bitcoin technology company River predicts that within the next 18 months, about 10% of U.S. companies will convert 1.5% of their cash reserves (approximately $10.35 billion) into Bitcoin. The report points out that traditional corporate financial strategies rely on cash and short-term equivalents, which often fail to outpace inflation, leading to a devaluation of reserves. Since 2020, companies that allocated 3% to Bitcoin have been better able to withstand inflation. The report also mentions that MicroStrategy's founder, Michael Saylor, has increased the company's market value by over 1000% through a Bitcoin financial strategy, far exceeding Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway's growth of 104.75% during the same period. Saylor views Bitcoin as an "economic immortal" asset for businesses, while Buffett refuses to include Bitcoin in his investment portfolio.
