McDonald’s shareholders will face a proposal to invest in Bitcoin at their upcoming meeting, raising questions about the fast-food giant’s stance on cryptocurrency. The National Center for Public Policy Research, a conservative think tank, advocates for exploring Bitcoin as a reserve asset, arguing that it holds greater growth potential than traditional investment options like real estate. Their proposal cites a famous quote from former McDonald’s CFO Harry Sonneborn emphasizing the need to embrace assets with higher growth prospects. While the company has shown reluctance in response to this proposal, legal representatives have consulted the SEC about excluding it from the shareholder meeting agenda, receiving confirmation that such exclusion won’t trigger enforcement action.
