PANews reported on December 23, according to Bitcoin.com, that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has garnered widespread attention for his firm denial of planning a $600 million wedding with his fiancée Lauren Sanchez in Aspen, Colorado. He made it clear that these rumors are purely fictional. In response, several billionaires, including Tesla founder Elon Musk, expressed their support for Bezos. Musk even jokingly wished Bezos a grand wedding in the future, while Bill Ackman, CEO of Pershing Square, directly refuted the rumor of the $600 million wedding, stating it was 'not credible.' However, amidst the public discussion, MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor cleverly pivoted the topic. He humorously remarked, 'You can buy a lot of Bitcoin for $600 million.'
The development of this situation closely follows a proposal by Amazon shareholders to encourage the company to invest at least 5% of its assets in Bitcoin (BTC), aligning with a similar proposal recently made to Microsoft. Saylor's remarks once again highlight the ongoing efforts to integrate Bitcoin into mainstream financial discussions, leveraging trending events to underscore its investment potential. While Bezos dismisses wedding gossip with a smile, Saylor seizes the opportunity to shift the focus to Bitcoin's vast prospects as an alternative asset.
