At the time of publication, the price of GME is $131.17 \u2014 an increase of more than 175% in the last 24 hours after weeks of sideways action. In addition to following the example of Tesla, which purchased $1.5 billion Bitcoin (BTC), Cramer proposed GameStop mimic Square and PayPal by becoming &#8220;a dealer in crypto.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If GameStop were to turn itself into a 5,000-store introduction to crypto [&#8230;] make it so that\u2019s an international gaming place where you win Bitcoin, I think you can justify the stock price,&#8221; said Cramer.<\/p>\n<p>The Mad Money host suggested that all GameStop <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scrapehero.com\/location-reports\/GameStop-USA\/\">locations<\/a> \u2014 3,447 as of January \u2014 could convert to &#8220;crypto-information palaces&#8221; in which the company would allow players to buy and sell cryptocurrencies in addition to offering them as gaming rewards. He <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jimcramer\/status\/1364710311266312196\">added<\/a> that GameStop\u2019s largest investor, Chewy CEO Ryan Cohen, could convince the board of directors to purchase $1 billion to $2 billion worth of BTC.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Ryan Cohen tells the board to sell 10 million shares of Gamestop at $200 and buys Bitcoin and says Gamestop is now a Bitcoin store that also sells games. Bingo! There&#8217;s the plan. I bet the cfo said no to the Bitcoin plan. Bitstop? Gamebit?
