Speaking to investors during Overstock.com’s fourth-quarter earnings call on 30th January, CEO Patrick Byrne revealed he now holds “several million dollars” in bitcoin, having recently invested in the currency. Byrne retracted earlier statements that indicated both he and Overstock would not hold any bitcoin. The outspoken exec further freed his company to hold bitcoin on the call, stating that it is “no longer bound” by previous restrictions. http://www.coindesk.com/overstock-ceo-holds-millions-bitcoin/ Title: Re: Overstock CEO Reveals He Now Holds Millions in Bitcoin Post by: hilariousandco on February 03, 2014, 10:39:49 AM That's interesting. Glad he decided to hold on to some. I wonder if he bought the Bitcoins elsewhere or did he take them out of the companies stash?

I didn't mean he took them without permission or anything.

I hope it pays off for him on both accounts.
