Meta Platforms Inc.面临股东压力，要求探索比特币作为保护现金储备免受通货膨胀影响的一种方式

股东 Ethan Peck 呼吁进行正式评估，理由是担心该公司持有的现金正在贬值，并指出比特币作为对冲工具的潜力。

Shareholders are urging Meta Platforms Inc. to investigate Bitcoin as a potential hedge against inflation for its $72 billion cash reserves.

股东敦促 Meta Platforms Inc. 对其 720 亿美元现金储备进行调查，将比特币作为对抗通胀的潜在对冲工具。

One shareholder, Ethan Peck, has formally requested an evaluation, arguing that the company's cash holdings are being eroded in value and highlighting Bitcoin's potential as a hedge. The cryptocurrency's remarkable growth — 124% in 2024 alone and 1,265% over the past five years — presents an alternative to traditional assets like bonds, which have offered much lower returns.

一位股东 Ethan Peck 已正式要求进行评估，认为该公司持有的现金价值正在受到侵蚀，并强调了比特币作为对冲工具的潜力。这种加密货币的显着增长——仅 2024 年就增长了 124%，过去五年增长了 1,265%——为债券等回报率低得多的传统资产提供了替代品。

With total assets of $256 billion as of late 2024, Meta has the financial strength to consider such strategies.

截至 2024 年底，Meta 的总资产达到 2560 亿美元，拥有考虑此类战略的财务实力。

Peck also points to examples like MicroStrategy, whose Bitcoin-focused approach has led to its stock outperforming Meta's by over 2,190%, and BlackRock, which recently launched a successful Bitcoin ETF and supports limited portfolio allocations to the cryptocurrency.

Peck 还提到了 MicroStrategy 和 BlackRock 等例子，该公司以比特币为中心的策略使其股票表现优于 Meta 2,190% 以上，而 BlackRock 最近推出了成功的比特币 ETF，并支持对加密货币进行有限的投资组合配置。

While Bitcoin's volatility and regulatory uncertainties raise concerns, proponents argue that it provides long-term protection against inflation. Shareholders like Peck and others view Bitcoin as an opportunity for Meta to align with forward-thinking companies and modernize its approach to managing cash reserves.

尽管比特币的波动性和监管不确定性引起了人们的担忧，但支持者认为它提供了针对通胀的长期保护。 Peck 等股东将比特币视为 Meta 与具有前瞻性思维的公司结盟并实现现金储备管理方法现代化的机会。
