I will buy shares of Microsoft so I can vote yes to the bitcoin proposal. I suggest every bitcoiner do the same if possible and even better if you already own shares of the company. One share of common stock is equal to one vote so you don't have to own a lot of shares to be elgible to vote but I don't know how long you have to be a shareholder if the vote is being held in less than two months on December 10.
Microsoft Board Asks Shareholders to Vote Against Investing in Bitcoin: SEC Filing
https://decrypt.co/288185/microsoft-asks-shareholders-vote-against-investing-bitcoin-sec-filing?amp=1I think the chances of approval are not very high but you never know. Of course it would be beyond massive for bitcoin if they voted yes.
Bitcoiners are usually pro-linux and it's funny seeing them buying Microsoft shares. I don't like the idea of buying Microsoft shares because it makes Microsoft stronger and if such a centralized company invests in Bitcoin, that will only pump the price, there will be no other benefit besides that. Price has the potential to pump without Microsoft buying it because we had halving this spring. In terms of investment, it will be better if Microsoft invests in Bitcoin when the bubble busts because that will help the price to recover quickly and will be a good help for investors.
By the way, isn't it stupid shareholder of Microsoft vote against Bitcoin investment? This will only financially benefit the company. I have no idea what they think about.
