Emory University Follows Tesla, Block And PayPal With $16M Bitcoin Investment
Like Tesla's notable $1.5 billion Bitcoin purchase in 2021—partially sold later to stabilize holdings—Emory's investment signals confidence in the cryptocurrency's potential as an alternative asset class. Emory University has disclosed a $16 million investment in the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust (NYSE:BTC), placing it among the first higher education institutions to dive into Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) holdings.
Emory大學披露了對灰度比特幣迷你信託基金(NYSE:BTC)的1600萬美元投資，這使其成爲首批投身比特幣(CRYPTO: BTC)資產領域的高等教育機構之一。

這一舉措跟隨了特斯拉、Block Inc.（前身爲Square）和paypal等企業巨頭設定的趨勢，這些公司近年來紛紛將比特幣加入了他們的資產負債表。
