Bitcoin's Institutional Adoption Phase
summary
University of Austin launches the first Bitcoin endowment raising a $5 million campaign and commits to a multisig custody (3 keys) model with Unchained Capital, holding Bitcoin for at least five years rather than buying ETFs. Recent accounting moves let institutions use FASB fair-value accounting so balance sheets reflect price gains instead of impairments, and the recent judicial shift limiting Chevron deference opens the door to legal challenges to IRS digital-asset tax guidance.
