Trying not to get political but Mr Thiel serves on Donald Trumps technology advisory council if what I have read is correct so I am wondering if he has brought them for himself or has the government a hand in their purchase ??
As it stands at the moment Bitcoin is estimated to be the most valuable in the Founders 1.3billion venture fund and they have brought Bitcoin outright instead of backing other companies which is the normal policy.
There has to be a reason they have broken their long standing tradition
