In the Q4 2020 Investor Letter, Tao Value highlighted a few stocks and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (NYSE:GBTC) is one of them. Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (NYSE:GBTC) is an investment vehicle that enables investors to gain access and exposure to Bitcoin in the form of a security without the challenges of buying, storing, and safekeeping Bitcoin directly. In the last three months, Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (NYSE:GBTC) stock gained 104.5% and on January 25th it had a closing price of $33.05. Here is what Tao Value said:

“GBTC is a new “Opportunistic” position. As a long-term holder of Bitcoin (from November 2013 to date), I saw it as a great social experiment and now on the cusp of institutionalization. In short, I see money as a trust-based ledger of energy and information debt which is designed to be repaid by others. I also think certain part of humanity’s energy & information debt will be stored in good money, for which Bitcoin has established itself as one important form. Below low of the year price table (or think it as the “bubblefree” value) tells this message, more specifically, we see the price after each “bubble” (highlighted 2013 & 2017) remained at an elevated level, a sign of increased trust & adoption.”
