GameStop CEO, Get Ready for the Bitcoin Revolution!

Strive Asset Management CEO Matt Cole is urging GameStop to adopt Bitcoin as a reserve asset, arguing that the move could redefine the company’s financial strategy. In a letter sent to GameStop Chairman and CEO Ryan Cohen on Feb. 24, Cole suggested that GameStop’s nearly $5 billion in cash reserves could be used to position the company as a leader in the gaming sector.

Cole wrote, “We believe GameStop has an incredible opportunity to transform its financial future by becoming the premier Bitcoin treasury company in the gaming sector.”

Strive, co-founded by Vivek Ramaswamy, manages exchange-traded funds that hold GameStop stock, giving the firm what Cole describes as a fiduciary responsibility and vested interest in the company’s success.

While he did not disclose the amount of GameStop stock held, Strive maintains exposure through three different ETFs.

The proposal aligns with moves made by companies like MicroStrategy and Semler Scientific, which have incorporated Bitcoin into their treasuries. 

Cole emphasized that GameStop should focus solely on Bitcoin while leveraging capital markets through at-the-market offerings and convertible debt securities.
