Future Fund LLC Managing Partner Gary Black criticized Tesla Inc.‘s (NASDAQ:TSLA) Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) holdings Wednesday, arguing they have minimal impact on the electric vehicle maker’s stock value as the cryptocurrency reached record highs.

What Happened: “The price of Bitcoin is not relevant to Tesla’s stock price,” Black wrote on X, noting that even at $100,000 per Bitcoin, Tesla’s holdings amount to roughly $0.33 per Tesla share. “My issue has always been capital allocation – shareholders can buy Bitcoin themselves.”

Don't Miss:

• Bitcoin has been surged back toward the psychological $100,000 per bitcoin milestone after wild swing — one of the most global crypto trading platforms is offering $10 of free crypto for new sign ups today!

• Over the last five years, the price of gold has increased by approximately 83% — Investors like Bill O’Reilly and Rudy Giuliani are using this platform to create customized gold IRAs to help shield their savings from inflation and economic turbulence. 

Black emphasized Tesla should prioritize its core business investments. “I want Tesla to build new plants, introduce new EV models, expand its energy business, invest in robotaxi,” he stated. “If there is cash left over, management can buy back Tesla stock.”

The comments came as Bitcoin surpassed $100,000 for the first time, reigniting debate about Tesla’s cryptocurrency investments. Black has consistently opposed Tesla’s Bitcoin holdings, arguing in June 2021 that they distract from the company’s EV mission and raise questions about earnings quality.
