According to the research, Tesla still has 9,720 Bitcoins, valued at a current market value of about $275.4 million given the current price of Bitcoin at $28,300.<\/p>\n<p>This choice stands in sharp contrast to Tesla\u2019s prior attempts to enter the bitcoin market. The electric car company made headlines in the first quarter of 2021 by building a Bitcoin treasury with a peak value of $1.5 billion by purchasing more than 43,000 bitcoins at an estimated average cost of $34,000.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>350% or 5BTC + <strong>150 Spins!<\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.

Tesla sold a sizeable chunk of its Bitcoin holdings in the first quarter of 2021, and it cut its Bitcoin assets by another about 75% in the second quarter of 2022, suffering a 48% loss.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla is the third-largest Bitcoin holding among publicly traded corporations, behind only Marathon Digital Holdings and MicroStrategy, despite recent sell-offs. Tesla\u2019s cryptocurrency moves are widely watched by the market since Elon Musk, the company\u2019s CEO, has a big impact on Bitcoin pricing.<\/p>\n<h2>Earnings and AI Aspirations<\/h2>\n<p>In its financial report for the July to September quarter, Tesla reported net income of $1.85 billion, a 44% decrease from the same time last year. Profits per share decreased as well, falling from 95 cents to 53 cents.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong> Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.

By switching from traditional coding to AI-based techniques, the business has significantly expanded its AI processing power, notably for its humanoid robot, Optimus.<\/p>\n<p>In their Q3 2023 earnings report, Tesla announced, <em>\u201cWe have commissioned one of the world\u2019s largest supercomputers to accelerate the pace of our AI development, with compute capacity more than doubling <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/teslas-bitcoin-holdings-unchanged-in-q2-2023-amidst-earnings-beat\/\">compared to Q2<\/a>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Tesla\u2019s expenditure in R&amp;D soared to $1.16 billion, representing an astounding 58% growth from the previous year. These monies are used for a variety of initiatives, such as the creation of the Cybertruck, the development of artificial intelligence, and several other research and development projects.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these important improvements, Tesla\u2019s shares plummeted by over 4.8% on October 18 to reach a closing price of $242.68, and by an additional 4.5% in after-hours trading to reach a final price of $231.61, according to data from Google Finance.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/tesla-holds-steady-with-bitcoin-as-earnings-decline\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Crypto News &#8211; iGaming.org ) According to the most recent financial report from the business, Tesla has reiterated its commitment to keeping its Bitcoin (BTC) reserves for the fifth consecutive quarter.
