Decline in Bitcoin price and its impact on Tesla’s balance sheet

Despite a stable volume of cryptocurrency, the value of Tesla’s Bitcoin portfolio significantly decreased due to a market correction at the end of the year. From October to December 2025, the price of Bitcoin fell from approximately $114,000 to $88,000, which was a key factor in the company recording a loss of $239 million. Tesla reflected this amount in its financial reporting for the fourth quarter.

“The company did not change the volume of digital assets during the reporting period.”

With the market price of Bitcoin around $89,000, the total valuation of Tesla’s crypto reserves reaches approximately $1 billion. Since the large-scale sale of Bitcoins in 2022, the portfolio structure has remained stable, and the volumes of digital assets have not changed significantly.

History of Bitcoin investments and Tesla’s financial results

Tesla first announced its investment in Bitcoin in February 2021, when it purchased 43,200 BTC for about $1.7 billion. Subsequently, the company sold part of the coins to test liquidity, and in 2022, it sold nearly 75% of its Bitcoin portfolio. Despite market volatility, the volumes of digital assets have remained nearly unchanged since then.

In the financial report for the fourth quarter of 2025, Tesla also reported revenue of $24.9 billion, slightly below analysts’ expectations of $25.1 billion. The adjusted earnings per share amounted to $0.50, exceeding the forecasted figure of $0.45.

It is worth noting that in November 2025, Tesla shareholders approved a new compensation package for CEO Elon Musk. If the company achieves its ambitious production and financial goals, this package could yield Musk up to $1 trillion in company stock. Previously, shareholders rejected a proposal to fund Musk’s xAI.
