Tl;Dr before if companies held BTC and the price went up they were not allowed to account for this increase unless they sold! But if price went down they had to write off even if they didn't sell.
Now if companies hold BTC and the price goes up they are allowed to account for it without selling. This means the official company valuation goes up if it holds bitcoin and bitcoin goes up. The way it should be?
