Microsoft shareholders will vote in December on whether the company should invest in Bitcoin, according to an SEC filing. The company's board recommends voting against the proposal during the annual shareholders meeting scheduled for December 9. The filing states that Microsoft management already closely examines the topic of Bitcoin investment. While Microsoft has previously incorporated Bitcoin technology through its open-source decentralized identifiers (DIDs) network, it currently does not hold Bitcoin on its balance sheet. The news comes as corporate interest in Bitcoin grows, highlighted by MicroStrategy's significant purchases of the cryptocurrency. Microsoft has a history of accepting Bitcoin as payment in its online stores, raising expectations about the potential for increased engagement with the cryptocurrency.
