Earlier Tuesday, Fidelity said it would give corporations who use its retirement savings rails a bitcoin investment option later this year. Fidelity is one of the largest 401(k) providers working with 23,000 corporations. The move is a further signal of the legitimization of bitcoin, although with the crypto’s wild price swings it's hardly a safe bet for the faint of heart.
MicroStrategy is best known in the cryptosphere for its aggressive bitcoin acquisition strategy. Earlier this month, the company purchased 4,157 BTC for about $190.5 million, bringing its total trove of holdings to 129,218 bitcoins, or $5.1 billion.
MicroStrategy and Fidelity did not respond to requests for additional information by press time.
Fidelity CEO Abby Johnson is scheduled to speak at Consensus 2022 in June.
