In an official report, Tesla justifies this investment as part of a new investment policy that allows them to now invest in specific and alternative reserve assets.

, we invested an aggregate $1.50 billion in bitcoin under this policy. Moreover, we expect to begin accepting bitcoin as a form of payment for our products in the near future, subject to applicable laws and initially on a limited basis, which we may or may not liquidate upon receipt.
