Due to the way GameStop share spiked in the last trading hours on 24th February, the host of CNBC’s Mad Money, Jim Crammer, has urged the GameStop (GME) board to purchase $1 billion worth of Bitcoin (BTC) to maintain the positive price trend of its stock.
Jim Cramer tweeted, “One last time: GME-issue one billion dollars in stock, Buy one billion in bitcoin and watch your stock go to $430… I wonder if Jim Bell objected to that plan.”

Crammer’s statement is in line with the action of some Wall Street firms that decided to invest a portion of their reserves in the flagship digital currency, Bitcoin (BTC).
Institutional investors are already flocking into the Bitcoin ecosystem. On 24th February, MicroStrategy, the largest independent publicly-traded business intelligence company, announced that it has bought 19,452 BTC worth about $1 billion, which puts the firm’s total Bitcoin holding at 90,531 BTC.
