The brick and mortar stores are the heart and soul of the company. Didn't you see the movie?! It's what captures the public's imagination. Now they have the resources to make the brand a real powerhouse and you want to close everything?
For what? So they can become a giant bitcoin? I don't understand that talk either. Sure bitcoin could go up from here, but it could also lose half its value which would make it a very dumb investment (Time for that was two years ago, IMO) They could do so many incredible things with this cash. Bitcoin seems to me like the cheap and easy, low-effort option.
