Microsoft's Bitcoin Vote - PA Bitcoin Bill - Treasury Yields - Bitcoin Adoption and Inflation
In this Cafe Bitcoin podcast, Brady, Terrence, John, and Alec discuss Bitcoin’s market activity and broader adoption signals. They highlight Microsoft's potential Bitcoin investment vote among shareholders, scheduled for December 10, and note that Microsoft’s board is recommending a "no" vote but believe this signifies growing mainstream interest in Bitcoin as a treasury asset. They also discuss Pennsylvania's recent bipartisan bill promoting Bitcoin rights, including tax protections and support for self-custody, which they see as a positive regulatory move. Additional topics include the rising yields in U.S. Treasury bonds, recent inflationary policies, and their potential to drive further interest in Bitcoin as a hedge. The crew also mentions the recent positive comments about Bitcoin from Paul Tudor Jones, who sees Bitcoin as a valuable inflation hedge in light of increasing fiscal and monetary uncertainties.
