Tesla’s Bitcoin wallet shows an increase from 9,720 BTC as reported in its last earnings report, to 11,509 BTC.

Reports from Arkham Intelligence suggest that Tesla Incorporation has acquired 1,000 Bitcoins since their last acquisition of BTC in 2021. However, Musk and Tesla have yet to comment on these speculations, as per Arkham Intelligence’s report

Previously, Tesla surged its Bitcoin holdings in January 2021 with a purchase of $1.5 billion. Tesla reportedly held 9,720 BTC in 2023. 

Tesla’s previous sale of BTC coincided with Bitcoin’s market movements

Looking into the current situation, the crypto community is curious about Musk’s renewed interest in Bitcoin. Additionally, Elon Musk’s involvement in cryptocurrency extends to SpaceX, holding Bitcoin on its balance sheet.

Tesla’s Stock Decline Amidst Chinese EV Market Challenges

While in the U.S. we are seeing Tesla and SpaceX increasing their Bitcoin/crypto holdings, in the absolute east, Tesla is facing challenges.

In the Chinese EV market, Tesla has witnessed a more than 7% drop in its stock. Weak shipments from its Shanghai factory, with a 19% YoY decline in deliveries, indicate intensified competition and disruptions tied to the Lunar New Year holidays.

Bitcoin Price Fluctuations

Ever since Nov 2021, Bitcoin has once again reached its new all-time-high breaching the $69000 mark slightly. The Bitcoin price surge this week is believed to be driven by capital inflows ever since the ETF approvals, and its correlation with technology stocks. 

CoinShares data indicates consistent capital inflows into Bitcoin-linked investment products. The imminent halving in Bitcoin production adds anticipation to market dynamics.

Tesla’s Bitcoin holdings and market activities show Musk showing a renewed interest in accumulating Bitcoin after it seems his much-loved dogecoin has failed to reach $1. All these developments taking place together represent the interconnectedness of Tesla’s stock performance, Bitcoin fluctuations, and broader market trends.
