As shared by Tim Jotzman, a consulting businessman and Bitcoin advocate, the initiative was highlighted in a post on X.

The National Center, a Washington-based think tank, has been actively urging corporations to consider Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainties.

In December 2024, its Free Enterprise Project presented a proposal at Microsoft‘s annual shareholder meeting, requesting the company to evaluate Bitcoin’s potential as a treasury asset.

This proposal gained notable attention, with MicroStrategy Chairman Michael Saylor publicly supporting the initiative, emphasizing Bitcoins inflation-resistant qualities.

Similarly, the National Center submitted a Bitcoin Treasury proposal to Amazon, recommending that the company allocate 5% of its assets to Bitcoin.

The proposal highlighted Bitcoins superior performance compared to traditional corporate bonds, stressing its potential to protect corporate treasuries against currency debasement.

With the submission to Meta, the National Center continues its advocacy, underscoring Bitcoins verifiable fixed supply and its growing recognition as a strategic asset among institutional investors.

The proposal cites examples of corporate adoption, such as MicroStrategy, along with recent developments like the growing traction of BlackRocks Bitcoin ETF.

The proposal also aligns with Metas forward-thinking history in adopting cutting-edge technologies.

“Meta has the opportunity to lead the corporate Bitcoin adoption movement, demonstrating its commitment to innovation and financial resilience,” the submission states.

The National Centers proposals are part of a broader trend where institutional investors and activists advocate for Bitcoin as a corporate treasury asset.

Companies like MicroStrategy have set benchmarks for integrating Bitcoin into their financial strategies, with their stock outperforming the market by 2,191% over the past five years, according to figures shared in the proposal.

If Meta considers this proposal, it would join a growing list of companies exploring the potential of Bitcoin to diversify and safeguard their treasuries.
