Can you imagine? Amazon, the global e-commerce giant, may embrace Bitcoin and become a new pioneer in fighting inflation! This is not a science fiction movie, but a real proposal to be discussed at the 2025 shareholders' meeting!
Imagine what it would be like if Amazon really converted part of its assets into Bitcoin? Wouldn’t it be exciting and full of unknowns? Recently, the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) submitted such a bold shareholder proposal to Amazon, suggesting that Amazon invest at least 5% of its assets in Bitcoin to resist the risks of inflation and asset depreciation.
The data mentioned in the proposal is striking: Bitcoin's increase over the past five years has reached 1246%, far exceeding traditional assets. In the face of an average inflation rate of 4.95% in the U.S. over the past four years, Bitcoin's ability to maintain value and resist inflation stands out. Even more surprisingly, the proposal points out that the traditional Consumer Price Index (CPI) may have underestimated the actual inflation rate, which could be as much as twice as high! This undoubtedly poses a significant threat to Amazon's cash reserves.
Bitcoin, once regarded as 'digital gold', seems to have become the 'cure' against inflation. The proposal also specifically mentioned the successful experience of MicroStrategy, as its adoption of a Bitcoin reserve strategy has led to its stock performance significantly outperforming Amazon, with a 537% growth over five years! How can that not be enticing?
Of course, this proposal is not something that will happen overnight. It will be discussed at the Amazon shareholders' meeting in April 2025. If the proposal passes, Amazon will become one of the largest e-commerce companies globally to incorporate Bitcoin into its financial reserves. This will undoubtedly spark a profound discussion about digital currencies and the traditional financial system.
Meanwhile, asset management giant BlackRock has also released its (2025 Global Outlook) report, which mentions Bitcoin as a potential new diversification investment tool. The report notes that Bitcoin has a low correlation with stocks and may serve as a potential tactical hedge against gold. This further proves Bitcoin's unique position and value in the financial market.
So, will Amazon really undergo a 'coin' transformation? We will wait and see. But regardless, this proposal has already sparked widespread attention and discussion. It has shown us the immense potential of digital currencies in the financial market and made us reflect on the integration and collision between the traditional financial system and digital currencies.
In this era full of uncertainties, we might need to adopt a more open and inclusive perspective towards new things. After all, no one can predict what will happen in the future. But one thing is certain: digital currencies are changing our world, and Amazon's 'coin' transformation is just a glimpse of this revolution.
