Tesla holds over $2B in BTC, an SEC filing confirms
Tesla, a pioneering automobile firm headed by "the Dogefather" Elon Musk, claimed in a recent filing to the SEC that the firm holds around $2 billion in Bitcoin (BTC). The "fair market value" that the firm holds, by the end of December 31, 2021, is $1.99, revealed the firm to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
Tesla holding BTC
The filing to the SEC said that Tesla has actively invested in the world's biggest cryptocurrency in early 2021. Moreover, the firm had also sold a portion of its Bitcoin holdings in March 2021 and made a profit worth $128 million. The filing also added the following:In the first quarter of 2021, we invested an aggregate $1.50 billion in bitcoin. We believe in the long-term potential of digital assets both as an investment and also as a liquid alternative to cash."However, the firm had also suffered from impairment loss, i.e., the loss which happens when a person holds an asset and its value drop when related to fiat. "Gains are presented net of impairment losses in restructuring and other in the consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2021, the carrying value of our digital assets held was $1.26 billion, which reflects cumulative impairments of $101 million," said the filing.
Elon Musk supporting Dogecoin
Elon Musk's Tesla holds Bitcoin, but the CEO believes that Dogecoin is better for payments than the world's biggest cryptocurrency. In his interview for TIME's Person of the Year, Musk said that "even though it's created as a silly joke, dogecoin is better suited for transactions."Moreover, recently Tesla also accepted Dogecoin for payments for merchandise, following which the token went up by 15%. The popularity of Dogecoin as 'People's currency' surged to new highs after the Dogecoin Foundation revealed a new roadmap for the project. The rival meme coin, Shiba Inu, has also aimed to dethrone DOGE.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
