It is possible that DDC is in for Bitcoin in the long run. As they release the statement, it is possible that they have the resources to accumulate 5000 BTC in three years time. Remember Bitcoin won't stay at this current price and in the next two years, BTC will possibly be on the bear market where DDC can acquire Bitcoin at a possibility of 30% to 40% less than the current price.
I think in the long run, probably, by the next bitcoin circle people will start having a different view about their decision. Right now the timing seems worrisome.
In my belief, I think DDC plan of accumulating BTC in the next three years is brilliant. They can acquire BTC at a discounted price since as I stated, the next 3 years will be a bear market for BTC if the cycle did not change. Then after a year of that 3 years accumulation comes the bull market for Bitcoin where they can possibly see a significant increase in their Bitcoin holdings value.
