Congressman Felix Barry Moore Buys Bitcoin
Felix Barry Moore, a US Congressman from Alabama’s 2nd congressional district, has made a significant investment in Bitcoin, a cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $1.82 trillion. The transaction took place on March 30, 2024, through a brokerage account specifically designed for coinage, which allows users to buy, sell, and store digital currencies like Bitcoin.
This move signals Moore’s willingness to engage with more speculative forms of investment, as cryptocurrencies have been a popular investment choice due to their potential for high returns but also carry a high level of risk due to their volatility.
The transaction was disclosed as required by the STOCK Act, which mandates members of Congress to report their investments to ensure transparency and avoid potential conflicts of interest. This move represents a growing trend among lawmakers to diversify their investment portfolios with digital assets.
