According to PANews, Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway’s stock price has fallen by nearly 99% against Bitcoin, from about 1,000 Bitcoins to 9.15 Bitcoins since 2015. On June 3, Berkshire Hathaway’s stock BRK.A experienced a short and sharp drop due to a technical glitch at the New York Stock Exchange.

Bitcoin's performance against BRK.A and its major stock holdings stands in stark contrast to Buffett's critical views on Bitcoin, which he has described as "rat poison." According to the results of the Nakamoto portfolio simulator, even including just 1% of Bitcoin in Berkshire Hathaway's existing portfolio could increase returns from 214% to 240% over a five-year adjusted time frame. Meanwhile, over the same period, Buffett could have achieved returns of 328% to 410% by allocating 5% to 10% of the portfolio to Bitcoin.
