Shouldn't Bitcoin Maximalists be upset that Saylor & Microstrategy are making it harder for us to stack as many sats?

Or grateful for locking up so much of the supply that an eventual supply shock will grow each sats value against fiat.
Not going to be mad at what I can’t control. Game theory will play out no matter how much we hate it. Bitcoin is for your enemies.

Getting “upset” at adoption outcomes of a permission-less global money is futile and a sign of stupidity. Be stoic, stack your sats, hone your craft, stack memories and do things that you find meaningful. The rest be shitcoins.
I’d have thought they’d be more upset about the fact that he’s pushing for the proliferation of USDT while the US hoards bitcoin. Seems completely antithetical to the idea of hyperbitcoinization.
We live in the gray friend. On one hand yes they have made it harder to stack on the other hand they’ve exponentially accelerated the value of the stacks you already have
Nah. He can buy as much as he wants. The reason he wants it is the value goes up forever, the reason we want it is the value goes up forever AND we can be self sovereign with self-custody. Him buying more makes the price go up and makes it harder for everyone to buy including the wealthy. It also grows the value of current holders savings. Do not fear any accumulation of Bitcoin, welcome it. It is a good thing.

wait until Microstrategy appears on rectbot
We maxis already dumped 100% of our fiat on Bitcoin many many years ago, we already stacked. As for all the cucks who decided to DCA and hold fiat, they are the ones asking for cheaper sats now **Lump sum was the best and most logical decision, but we were made fun of.**

Yes. I feel like I’m the only one concerned. Last time I checked #bitcoin was supposed to a peer-to-peer electronic cash network without the need of a middle man. Not a financial instrument suits use to get rich by stripping it from everyone else. Glad to know it’s not just me Sincerely, A Concerned Bitcoiner

Be gentle with me 🥲 if I’m a cuck what are the rest of those billions or people 😂
I am kinda upset about that. I'd be happier with slower price growth if it would be powered by the communities around the world that actually need it.

No, because Bitcoin is free and permission less system that let's everyone make their own decisions.

Of course not. Bitcoin is money for everyone. Your friends, your adversaries, and your enemies. Why would we be upset that people are using it? Your supposition that a maximalist should have the opinion that "other people should not use bitcoin so it's cheaper for me to buy it" is to completely miss what Bitcoin maximalism means.

Yes. Why would someone want to play a game in which some guy has been hoarding all the tokens.

Dude using finance tricks with a public corporation is not “adoption” it’s an old man without ideas on how to run a business

Should a bitcoin maximalist be upset about being out-maxed? 😭

Mixed feelings. Love seeing the price go up because of the sats I have. Hate seeing the price go up because of the sats I don’t have.
Don't worry about Saylor. He is drinking way too much coke. His bitkeys might be coming in handy soon.

I'm not upset. I heard Saylor on What Bitcoin Did and Robert Breedlove so it's not like he didn't tell anyone what he was up to. In fact. I learned quite a bit from listening to him.
I'd much rather let the common plebs stack sats before any big corpos indirectly printing gov money to purchase BTC

I was, so I got some shares. Now I’m happy when he is stacking.
This was always going to happen a debt based system. 2000% increase in 5 years sounds like he has somewhat an idea.
