Venture capitalist Tim Draper has criticized major technology firms, specifically naming Apple and Meta, for failing to allocate a portion of their corporate treasuries to Bitcoin. Speaking on a Bitcoin Magazine podcast, Draper called the omission irresponsible and suggested that corporations should maintain enough Bitcoin on their balance sheets to cover roughly one month of operating expenses.

Draper argued that persistent government spending will inevitably drive inflation or higher interest rates, both of which erode the value of dollar-denominated cash reserves. He described Bitcoin as a crucial hedge against fiscal expansion, warning that heavy reliance on traditional banking leaves corporate treasuries vulnerable during financial crises.

The investor further claimed that corporate board members could face personal liability for employee compensation if a holding bank were to fail without adequate backup assets in place. His comments reflect an ongoing discussion regarding whether corporate treasuries should adopt digital assets to counter currency depreciation risks.
