Kjell Inge Røkke and Øystein Stray Spetalen, two financial kingpins in Norway, have recently jumped on the cryptocurrency-ship, after calling it a joke for several years. Røkke shocked Norway with the news of him investing half a billion worth of NOK in cryptocurrency, mainly Ethereum and Bitcoin, and Spetalen soon followed suit. Both men have recently educated themselves on cryptocurrency, and quickly changed stance on the phenomenom. 

 

Kjell Inge Røkke has started a new company for the purpose, Seetee, with 1170 BTC as capital. Spetalen now owns 17% if MiraiExchange, and admits he himself owns BTC, allthoug less than Røkke. They both make it clear that BTC still can tank and go to zero, but they compare it to gold, as a store of value.
