The post sparked significant speculation about the tech giant\u2019s potential interest in <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-hash-price-hits-all-time-low-whats-next-for-btc-price\/\">Bitcoin (BTC)<\/a>. The poll, which asked followers to vote on \u201cthe most important thing,\u201d included options like AI, Bitcoin, love and relationships, and none of the above.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Bags Highest Vote On Michael Dell\u2019s Poll<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin received the highest number of votes, which came from approximately 21,380 participants. Hence, the oldest crypto secured 45% out of 47,513 votes at the time. This result wasn\u2019t entirely unexpected, given Dell\u2019s subtle hints about his interest in BTC.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin maximalists were quick to jump on Dell\u2019s latest actions with exchanges like Kraken also joining the fray. Earlier, on June 21, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/is-michael-dell-warming-up-to-bitcoin-after-playful-crypto-tweet\/\">Dell<\/a> suggested following the Cookie Monster on X, but what truly caught the attention of the BTC community was an image of the Cookie Monster eating cookies adorned with the Bitcoin logo.<\/p>\n<p>This further cemented the idea that Dell might be leaning towards BTC again. Moreover, adding fuel to the fire, Dell had also reposted a message from MicroStrategy founder <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/michael-saylor-issues-epic-take-on-bitcoin-says-it-is-economic-immortality\/\">Michael Saylor<\/a> that read, \u201c#Bitcoin is Digital Scarcity.\u201d A day before this repost, Dell had tweeted, \u201cScarcity creates value.\u201d Furthermore, it has only heightened the buzz around his potential interest in Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, Dell Technologies adopted Bitcoin as a payment means in 2014. However, in 2017, the company decided to seize BTC payments due to low demand. Nonetheless, given the history of Dell and BTC, the recent rumors have sparked massive optimism in the crypto space.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/robert-kiyosaki-labels-bitcoin-etf-fake-here-why\/\">Robert Kiyosaki Labels Bitcoin ETF \u2018Fake\u2019, Here\u2019s Why<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>The Apple Saga<\/h2>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>The Bitcoin community has seen similar excitement around another tech giant, Apple. Recently, MicroStrategy\u2019s Michael Saylor posted a cryptic message on X: \u201cTake a \u20bfite.\u201d He posted the message alongside an image of a blue apple featuring the legendary BTC logo.<\/p>\n<p>The clever wordplay in Saylor\u2019s post pointed toward Apple\u2019s iconic bitten apple logo. Moreover, it ignited rumors that Apple might be considering a Bitcoin purchase. With Apple\u2019s substantial cash reserves, currently over $47 billion, the company certainly has the financial capacity for significant investments.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, in an interview with Robin Seyr, Saylor shed light on the potential collaboration between Apple and Bitcoin. He suggested that Apple could integrate Bitcoin\u2019s network security features into its ecosystem. He said, \u201cWhen Apple encounters Bitcoin, I think they may look at it and think, \u2018Wait a minute\u2026 Bitcoin multi-signature Cloud, what if we actually make the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/is-apple-buying-bitcoin-michael-saylor-sparks-speculations-with-cryptic-post\/\">Apple<\/a> Watch a signing device and combine it with the iPhone and a third device on a laptop?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>In addition, Saylor envisioned a future where Apple could become a major player in the financial sector by offering secure, easy-to-use multisig solutions. He speculated, \u201cMaybe the future biggest bank in the world is Apple Computer.\u201d The implications of such a move by either Dell or Apple could be bigger than expected.<\/p>\n<p>It would not only boost Bitcoin as a mainstream asset but also promote institutional adoption of the crypto. However, as of yet, neither Dell nor Apple have made an official comment on the matter, which is led to ambiguity in the community.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-etf-records-4-day-streak-blackrock-boosts-82m-influx\/\">Bitcoin ETF Records 4-Day Streak As BlackRock Boosts With $82M Influx<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.82 --><\/p>\n<p>                                &lt;!&#8211; <\/p>\n<div class=\"desktopPostEnd d-on\"><\/div>\n<p> &#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on mobiless\">\n<div id=\"social-section-new\">\n<p>\u2713 Share:<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new wp_new\" href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-in-spotlight-with-michael-dell-latest-poll-is-dell-going-big-on-btc\/\">  <i class=\"fa fa-whatsapp\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n                                <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new tw_new_logo\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/bitcoin-in-spotlight-with-michael-dell-latest-poll-is-dell-going-big-on-btc\/\"><\/p>\n<p><\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>          &lt;!&#8211; <\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on pl-2 pr-2\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-6 pr-2\">\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n<p>            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-7-crypto-marketing-firms-of-the-year\/?utm_source=abovesidebartabnews&amp;utm_medium=organicarticle\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top Crypto Marketing Firms \/ Agencies 2023; Here\u2019s Best Picks [Updated]\n <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-6 pl-2\">\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n<p>            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-10-web-3-games-to-explore-in-2023-here-list\/?utm_source=priceanalysisbar&amp;utm_medium=organicarticle\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top 10 Web3 Games To Explore In 2023; Here List\n <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>                    &#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<div class=\"TabDicA\">\n<div class=\"TBAcon \">\n<div class=\"authorFlip tabcS\" id=\"TabA205049\">\n<div class=\"authorBox\">\n<div class=\"author_Name\">\n&lt;!&#8211;<\/p>\n<div class=\"getAuthoname\"><\/div>\n<p>&#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<p>CoinGape comprises an experienced team of native content writers and editors working round the clock to cover news globally and present news as a fact rather than an opinion.
