What’s the reason they’re shifting their treasury management approach?
1. Protection against currency devaluation => buy hard assets (Bitcoin) with weak assets (Yen), as the Yen hits its lowest level against the dollar in 34 years.

3. Provide global investors with a Bitcoin proxy => for companies that prefer not to or cannot buy Bitcoin directly.

5) I prefer the latter, which means we need to backtrack another ~70,000 years to find when money was first created.
This evidence is found all the way down in 🇿🇦 South Africa in a small cave named “Blombos”, where scientists found ancient wearable shells.

6) Recognized as “arguably the first form of long-term savings technology” these shells enabled primitive humans to form social contracts with each other.
They inadvertently created a ledger that permitted individuals to store their time using these shells as “money”.

7) Although not formally documented, these social contracts fulfilled many properties of money.
To create this “shell money”, inhabitants would have to find, polish and drill into the shells with a bow drill, before stringing them together to wear as jewelry.

3) Conventional history traces the origins of money back to ~5,000 BC when metal objects began serving as a MoE.
Before this, barter was the prevalent method for addressing the challenge of matching needs.
However, can we truly say that money didn't exist before 5,000 BC?

8) As such, this is likely the first ever true form of “proof of work”.
These shells enabled individuals to store their time by converting their most precious resource (energy) into a robust social contract that could not easily be diluted.

Durability, portability, divisibility, fungibility, scarcity, and verifiability.

4) Well, that depends on how we define “money”.
The narrow definition would describe money as a “medium of exchange in the form of coins or banknotes.”
The wider definition would define money as something that is "generally accepted as payment for goods and services.”

9) The Director of the Blombos Cave Program regarded this to be “the earliest storage of information outside of the human brain.”
Isn’t it fascinating that one of our first intellectual tasks as prehistoric humans was to create a social contract enabling us to store our time?

10) Based on the above, it seems evident to me that by creating a technology that was able to broadly fulfill the properties of sound money, it makes logical sense to in fact label this date ~75,000 years ago as the official date money was first invented.
