Cryptocurrency markets were notably impacted by the GameStop frenzy in 2021. Driven by Elon Musk’s support, individual investors triumphed over short-sellers, creating an almost legendary narrative. However, the speculative surge came to an abrupt halt with the removal of the buy button, leading to a swift sell-off and an end to the excitement.
GameStop and Cryptocurrencies
Elon Musk engaged in a significant social media battle for both DOGE and GameStop simultaneously. His posts illustrated how the army of retail investors, including DOGE enthusiasts, managed to defeat major hedge funds in the GameStop saga.
Currently, GameStop is considering making investments in Bitcoin 
$91,967 and other cryptocurrencies. Should GameStop proceed in this direction, it could not only boost its own stock but also attract a wave of individual investors reminiscent of the 2021 story.
According to a CNBC report, the company is seriously contemplating this move.
“Three sources indicate that GameStop is exploring investments in alternative asset classes, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. One source mentioned that the company is still in the process of determining whether this makes sense for GameStop’s business.”
“Last weekend, CEO Ryan Cohen shared a photo with Michael Saylor, co-founder and chairman of MicroStrategy, the largest institutional holder of Bitcoin.”
“However, two sources noted that Saylor is currently not involved in discussions regarding GameStop’s cryptocurrency investments.”
