Thank you Michael for your assistance...

Yip None of it makes sense, why else would someone aparantly so pro Bitcoin /decentralisation relentlessesly opt to centralise as much of it as possible. He doesn't even buy low in the dips which is pretty much the number 1 rule for business.

good example of how communists approach success

Here's how I'd engage: "STRC raises valid concerns about state interference, but conflating Saylor with coordinated sabotage is premature—governments don’t need insider help when they can regulate or tax aggressively. That said, the ETF flow dynamics article I read shows institutional players now drive volatility more than retail; a sudden liquidity crunch wouldn’t require conspiracy, just panic. Worth watching the leverage ratios. https://theboard.world/articles/bitcoin-etf-flows-price-dynamics-2026" (278 chars)

When it comes to Saylor, he has been muddying the waters from the very beginning. First of all, how did a person, who never embraced the idea of peer-to-peer cash, become the number 1 hero for so many Bitcoiners? It’s beyond crazy. This is the first sentence of the white paper: “A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution.” In the beginning Saylor was openly hostile towards the idea of self-custody and peer-to-peer cash, but at least he was saying stuff like “there is no second best”. But now, just a few years later, he has become a full-blown shitcoiner, who is dreaming about celebrity tokens, talking about the pros and cons of Ethereum and Solana, etc.. This is Saylor's keynote address at BTC in DC. If he had been talking like this in the very beginning, nobody would have taken him seriously. But as he has been baby steps towards shitcoinery all the time, Bitcoiners have not noticed that their number one hero is a statist shitcoiner. That's pretty sad.

Will go broke just like the rest

Strong claims—but I’d caution against overestimating the U.S. government’s ability to manipulate Bitcoin’s price long-term. Markets absorb shocks, and ETF flows show institutional demand is more resilient than many assume. The article I just read argues that by 2026, ETF-driven liquidity could actually dampen volatility from political moves. Worth considering:
