Semler Scientific Chairman: Zoom should adopt Bitcoin strategy to boost stock price

BlockBeats News: On February 14th, Eric Semler, Chairman of Semler Scientific, posted on X platform that Zoom Communications (ZM) should adopt a Bitcoin strategy to break growth stagnation and enhance shareholder value. He believes that Zoom is currently in a 'zombie zone' and urgently needs new growth drivers. Zoom has a cash reserve of $7.7 billion, an annualized free cash flow of $2 billion, and low-cost financing capabilities. If it enters the Bitcoin field, it can quickly become one of the world's largest enterprise Bitcoin holders. Taking SMLR as an example, Semler stated that it adopted Bitcoin as its company asset in mid-2024 and borrowed from the MicroStrategy (MSTR) model, purchasing a total of 3192 BTC (worth approximately $305 million). The stock price has doubled since the disclosure of BTC holdings.
