Last month, the company updated its investment policy to “further diversify and maximize returns” on the cash it currently holds. “Thereafter, we invested an aggregate $1.5 billion in Bitcoin under this policy and may acquire and hold digital assets from time to time or long-term,” the filing adds. In the same document, Tesla says it expects to accept Bitcoin as a form of payment in the near future, but initially on a limited basis. ....

The move comes less than three weeks after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration requested a recall of 158,000 EVs, citing a potential safety-related defect concerning media control units in certain model year 2012-18 cars. At the heart of the problem is the Nvidia Tegra 3 processor s integrated 8GB eMMC NAND flash device, which gets overwritten each time the vehicle is started. Overwrite the drive enough times, and it will reach capacity and break down, causing Tesla s connected MCU to go blank.
